Isaiah 13, the day of the LORD!

Isa 13:1, The burden against Babylon which ISAIAH THE SON OF AMOZ SAW. 

What amazes me about Isaiah is that GOD reveals HIS coming judgement on Babylon, about 100 years after Isaiah’s death; then talks of the judgement coming to the world thousands of years later!

Isa 13:4-5, … THE LORD OF HOSTS MUSTERS THE ARMY FOR BATTLE. They come from a far country, From the end of heaven—THE LORD AND HIS WEAPONS OF INDIGNATION, TO DESTROY THE WHOLE LAND.

Babylon was used by GOD as a Rod to punish HIS own people, Israel. Now judgement is coming to Babylon! In the book of Daniel chapter 5 speaks of this!

Dan 5:28, 30 PERES: YOUR KINGDOM HAS BEEN DIVIDED, AND GIVEN TO THE MEDES AND PERSIANS.” That very night Belshazzar, king of the Chaldeans, was slain.

Isa 13:9-10, BEHOLD, THE DAY OF THE LORD COMES, Cruel, with both wrath and fierce anger, To lay the land desolate; And HE WILL DESTROY ITS SINNERS FROM IT. For the stars of heaven and their constellations Will not give their light; The sun will be darkened in its going forth, And the moon will not cause its light to shine.

Now Isaiah is focused on the DAY OF THE LORD.  The LORD comes with fierce wrath upon the world, and signs will be seen in the heavens above! The seven-year tribulation!

Mat 24:29, “IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE TRIBULATION OF THOSE DAYS THE SUN WILL BE DARKENED, AND THE MOON WILL NOT GIVE ITS LIGHT; THE STARS WILL FALL FROM HEAVEN, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.

Isa 13:11-12, “I WILL PUNISH THE WORLD FOR ITS EVIL, And the wicked for their iniquity; I WILL HALT THE ARROGANCE OF THE PROUD, AND WILL LAY LOW THE HAUGHTINESS OF THE TERRIBLE. I WILL MAKE A MORTAL MORE RARE THAN FINE GOLD, A MAN MORE THAN THE GOLDEN WEDGE OF OPHIR.

Today, the world has about 8 Billion living souls, but the DAY OF THE LORD will destroy the vast majority of them! HE CAME AS A LAMB, BUT NOW HE COMES AS A LION!

Psa 110:5-6, The Lord is at Your right hand; He shall execute kings in the day of His wrath. He shall judge among the nations, He shall fill the places with dead bodies, He shall execute the heads of many countries.

HE is a GOD of LOVE, but HE is also JUST and righteous! HIS wrath is near! BE READY FOR JUDGEMENT IS COMING!

Isaiah 8, At HIS wrath the world trembles!

Isa 8:5-7, The LORD also spoke to me again, saying: “INASMUCH AS THESE PEOPLE REFUSED THE WATERS OF SHILOAH THAT FLOW SOFTLY, AND REJOICE IN REZIN AND IN REMALIAH’S SON; Now therefore, behold, the LORD brings up over them The waters of the River, strong and mighty—THE KING OF ASSYRIA AND ALL HIS GLORY; HE WILL GO UP OVER ALL HIS CHANNELS AND GO OVER ALL HIS BANKS. 

GOD’s provision is described as a soft flowing river, yet Israel rejected it! Now in judgement GOD brings Assyria described as a strong and mighty river which overflows their land!

Isa 8:8, He will pass through Judah, He will overflow and pass over, HE WILL REACH UP TO THE NECK; And the stretching out of his wings Will fill the breadth of Your land, O Immanuel.

Assyria consumed the 10 tribes of Israel and almost consumed Judah; that raging river, Assyria, flowed up to their necks!  THIS IS THE JUDGEMENT OF GOD OVER HIS PEOPLE, YET JUDAH WAS SPARED BUT AT A GREAT COST!

2Ki 18:13-14, And in the fourteenth year of King Hezekiah, SENNACHERIB KING OF ASSYRIA CAME UP AGAINST ALL THE FORTIFIED CITIES OF JUDAH AND TOOK THEM. Then Hezekiah king of Judah sent to the king of Assyria at Lachish, saying, “I have done wrong; turn away from me; WHATEVER YOU IMPOSE ON ME I WILL PAY… SO HEZEKIAH GAVE HIM ALL THE SILVER THAT WAS FOUND IN THE HOUSE OF THE LORD

They stripped the house of the LORD of all it’s gold and silver to pay for their freedom!

Isa 8:19, And when they say to you, “Seek those who are mediums and wizards, who whisper and mutter,” SHOULD NOT A PEOPLE SEEK THEIR GOD? SHOULD THEY SEEK THE DEAD ON BEHALF OF THE LIVING? 

Israel had fallen so much that instead of seeking their GOD, they sought mediums and wizards? The same is true today, rather than seeking the Living GOD, they seek after the dead; FOR THE DEAD HAVE NO GOD!

Luk 9:60, JESUS said to him, “LET THE DEAD BURY THEIR OWN DEAD, BUT YOU GO AND PREACH THE KINGDOM OF GOD.” 

There are many spiritually dead people walking this earth today, but as Christians we much preach the WORD to this dead world! FOR ONLY HIS WORD CAN BRING LIFE TO THE DEAD! SEEK HIM AND LIVE!

Jer 10:10, BUT THE LORD IS THE TRUE GOD; HE IS THE LIVING GOD AND THE EVERLASTING KING. AT HIS WRATH THE EARTH WILL TREMBLE, AND THE NATIONS WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ENDURE HIS INDIGNATION. 

Isaiah 5, What more could HE have done for us?

Isa 5:1-2, Now let me sing to my Well-beloved A song of my Beloved regarding HIS vineyard: MY WELL-BELOVED HAS A VINEYARD On a very fruitful hill. He dug it up and cleared out its stones, And planted it with the choicest vine. He built a tower in its midst, And also made a winepress in it; SO HE EXPECTED IT TO BRING FORTH GOOD GRAPES, BUT IT BROUGHT FORTH WILD GRAPES.

The LORD has a vineyard, verse 7 “ISRAEL”, who had so much advantages than any other! The LORD took care of it and protected it, BUT IT PRODUCED POISONOUS GRAPES?

Isa 5:3-4, “And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem and men of Judah, JUDGE, PLEASE, BETWEEN ME AND MY VINEYARD. WHAT MORE COULD HAVE BEEN DONE TO MY VINEYARD THAT I HAVE NOT DONE IN IT? Why then, when I expected it to bring forth good grapes, Did it bring forth wild grapes?

What more could GOD had done for Israel, and even us gentiles? So many people blame GOD, yet do not consider what HE has done for us! HE allowed HIMSELF to be crucified on that cross in order pay our debt “sin”; Yet so many ignore HIM and even hate HIM?

Dan 9:26, “…MESSIAH SHALL BE CUT OFF, BUT NOT FOR HIMSELF;

Isa 5:5, And now, PLEASE LET ME TELL YOU WHAT I WILL DO TO MY VINEYARD: I will take away its hedge, and it shall be burned; And break down its wall, and it shall be trampled down. 

GOD is love and HE loves HIS people, but HE is also JUST! HE sent Assyria to judge Israel!

Isa 10:6, I will send him against an ungodly nation, And AGAINST THE PEOPLE OF MY WRATH I WILL GIVE HIM CHARGE, To seize the spoil, to take the prey, And to tread them down like the mire of the streets. 

Israel rejected GOD, wild grapes, and then rejected their own MESSIAH JESUS. GOD’s wrath upon HIS own people is hot, YET HE SHALL PRESERVE HIS REMNANT! Rom 9:27.

Isa 5:13, THEREFORE MY PEOPLE HAVE GONE INTO CAPTIVITY, BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE…

Even though we may not see GOD’s physical presence; KNOW THAT HE IS ALWAYS THERE! YOU ARE NOT FOOLING HIM FOR HE SEES ALL YOU DO AND KNOWS YOUR THOUGHTS!

Hos 4:6, MY PEOPLE ARE DESTROYED FOR LACK OF KNOWLEDGE. BECAUSE YOU HAVE REJECTED KNOWLEDGE, I also will reject you from being priest for ME; BECAUSE YOU HAVE FORGOTTEN THE LAW OF YOUR GOD, I ALSO WILL FORGET YOUR CHILDREN. 

WHAT MORE COULD HE HAVE DONE FOR US?

Isaiah 3, The wrath of our Loving GOD!

Isa 3:1-3, For behold, the Lord, the LORD of hosts, TAKES AWAY FROM JERUSALEM AND FROM JUDAH The stock and the store, The whole supply of bread and the whole supply of water; The mighty man and the man of war, The judge and the prophet, And the diviner and the elder; The captain of fifty and the honorable man, The counselor and the skillful artisan, And the expert enchanter.

Because of sin and corruption in Israel, the LORD not only took away their provisions, but their leaders, prophets, judges, honorable men, counselor etc.. 

2Ki 24:14, Also he carried into captivity all Jerusalem: all the captains and all the mighty men of valor, ten thousand captives, and all the craftsmen and smiths. NONE REMAINED EXCEPT THE POOREST PEOPLE OF THE LAND. 

Isa 3:4, 6, “I WILL GIVE CHILDREN TO BE THEIR PRINCES, AND BABES SHALL RULE OVER THEM…. When a man takes hold of his brother In the house of his father, saying, “YOU HAVE CLOTHING; YOU BE OUR RULER, And let these ruins be under your power,” 

Instead of wise competent leaders, they are replaced by children without understanding. They think only of themselves rather than others! Like our leaders today!

Ecc 10:16, WOE TO YOU, O LAND, when your king is a child, And your princes feast in the morning! 

YES, the LORD is loving, but HE is also just and HE will reward you according to what you have sown! Whether good or bad!

Isa 3:10-11, “SAY TO THE RIGHTEOUS THAT IT SHALL BE WELL WITH THEM, FOR THEY SHALL EAT THE FRUIT OF THEIR DOINGS. WOE TO THE WICKED! IT SHALL BE ILL WITH HIM, FOR THE REWARD OF HIS HANDS SHALL BE GIVEN HIM.

Judgement is coming, and we will receive what we deserve; for HE keeps accurate records of all we say, do and think!

2Co 5:10, For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad. 

Isa 3:25-26, Your men shall fall by the sword, And your mighty in the war. Her gates shall lament and mourn, And she being desolate shall sit on the ground.

Judgement came for Israel by the hands of Assyria, and it’s also coming here to our country. For the cry slaughtered children, and the corruption of this country has reached HIS ears! Remember HE is loving, but also Just!

Isaiah 2, Judgement before HIS glorious appearing!

Isa 2:2, Now it shall come to pass IN THE LATTER DAYS THAT THE MOUNTAIN OF THE LORD’S HOUSE SHALL BE ESTABLISHED ON THE TOP OF THE MOUNTAINS, AND SHALL BE EXALTED ABOVE THE HILLS; AND ALL NATIONS SHALL FLOW TO IT. 

Isaiah has a vision of the future temple, in the kingdom age, after the tribulation when JESUS shall be crowned KING of all the earth!

Zec 14:9, AND THE LORD SHALL BE KING OVER ALL THE EARTH….

Isa 2:3, Many people shall come and say, “Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, To the house of the God of Jacob; He will teach us His ways, And we shall walk in His paths.” For out of Zion shall go forth the law, And the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.

HE shall rule the whole earth in righteousness, and many out of fear shall go to Jerusalem to go before the KING!

Zec 8:22-23, Yes, MANY PEOPLES AND STRONG NATIONS Shall come to seek the LORD of hosts in Jerusalem, And to pray before the LORD.’ “Thus says the LORD of hosts: ‘IN THOSE DAYS TEN MEN FROM EVERY LANGUAGE OF THE NATIONS SHALL GRASP THE SLEEVE OF A JEWISH MAN, SAYING, “LET US GO WITH YOU, FOR WE HAVE HEARD THAT GOD IS WITH YOU.” ‘ “

But before this day, comes judgement; THE DAY OF THE LORD! FOR THE WHOLE EARTH HAS CORRUPTED ITSELF AGAINST THE LORD, GOD ALMIGHTY!

Isa 2:18-19, But the idols He shall utterly abolish. THEY SHALL GO INTO THE HOLES OF THE ROCKS, AND INTO THE CAVES OF THE EARTH, FROM THE TERROR OF THE LORD AND THE GLORY OF HIS MAJESTY, When He arises to shake the earth mightily.

Rev 6:16-17, and said to the mountains and rocks, “FALL ON US AND HIDE US FROM THE FACE OF HIM WHO SITS ON THE THRONE AND FROM THE WRATH OF THE LAMB! FOR THE GREAT DAY OF HIS WRATH HAS COME, AND WHO IS ABLE TO STAND?”

Judgement will come first, then the glorious appearing of our Great GOD and Savior JESUS shall appear! All eyes shall see HIM!

Mat 24:30, THEN THE SIGN OF THE SON OF MAN WILL APPEAR IN HEAVEN, AND THEN ALL THE TRIBES OF THE EARTH WILL MOURN, and they will see the SON OF MAN COMING ON THE CLOUDS of heaven with power and great glory.

WE NEED TO PREPARE OURSELVES FOR THE TIME IS ALMOST UPON US! WE SHALL SEE HIM FACE TO FACE! COME LORD JESUS COME!

Isaiah 1, Life or death it’s a choice that we ALL make!

Isa 1:2-3 NLT, Listen, O heavens! Pay attention, earth! THIS IS WHAT THE LORD SAYS: “The children I raised and cared for have rebelled against me. Even an ox knows its owner, and a donkey recognizes its master’s care—but Israel doesn’t know its master. MY PEOPLE DON’T RECOGNIZE MY CARE FOR THEM.”

GOD has always been faithful to Israel, yet going to HIS sanctuary had become just what people do! Like going to church today without learning anything, looking at your watch, running out as soon as the service is over! The LORD cared for them, But Israel forgot HIM!

Isa 1:9, UNLESS THE LORD OF HOSTS HAD LEFT TO US A VERY SMALL REMNANT, We would have become like Sodom, We would have been made like Gomorrah. 

The LORD could have wiped Israel off the face of the earth, but HE is faithful to the promise he had given Abraham!

Gen 22:16-17, and said: “BY MYSELF I HAVE SWORN, SAYS THE LORD, because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son— BLESSING I WILL BLESS YOU, AND MULTIPLYING I WILL MULTIPLY YOUR DESCENDANTS AS THE STARS OF THE HEAVEN…

Isa 1:16-17, “Wash yourselves, make yourselves clean; Put away the evil of your doings from before My eyes. Cease to do evil, Learn to do good; Seek justice, Rebuke the oppressor; Defend the fatherless, Plead for the widow.

YET GOD pleads with HIS people; wash yourselves, make yourselves clean! Learn to do good, defend those that need help!

Isa 1:18, “Come now, and let us reason together,” Says the LORD, “THOUGH YOUR SINS ARE LIKE SCARLET, THEY SHALL BE AS WHITE AS SNOW; THOUGH THEY ARE RED LIKE CRIMSON, THEY SHALL BE AS WOOL. 

We are all guilty and deserve punishment, but HE offers a different ending! HE wants to forgive you not destroy you! REMEMBER, HEAVEN IS NOT MADE FOR GOOD PEOPLE, IT’S FOR FORGIVEN PEOPLE ONLY!

Isa 1:28, The destruction of transgressors and of sinners shall be together, And those who forsake the LORD SHALL BE CONSUMED. 

HE wants to wash away our sins, but sad to say most will choose destruction out of pride, ignorance and rebellion! IT’S A CHOICE, AND IF YOU CHOSE TO IGNORE IT, THEN YOUR CHOICE IS SEALED BY YOUR OWN WILL!

Rom 6:23, FOR THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH, BUT THE GIFT OF GOD IS ETERNAL LIFE IN CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD. 

Psalm 79, Judgement starts at home!

Psa 79:1, …God, the nations have come into Your inheritance; Your holy temple they have defiled; They have laid Jerusalem in heaps. 

Jerusalem was defiled by the Armies of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon! They raided the temple, and took all the sacred items!

Psa 79:2-3, The dead bodies of YOUR SERVANTS—They have given as food for the birds of the heavens, The flesh of YOUR SAINTS to the beasts of the earth. THEIR BLOOD THEY HAVE SHED LIKE WATER ALL AROUND JERUSALEM, AND THERE WAS NO ONE TO BURY THEM.

Their unburied bodies turned into food for the birds! The Psalmist is pleading to GOD, “LORD THE BODIES OF YOUR SERVANTS ARE LIKE THE CARCASSES OF AN ANIMALS, UNLOVED! THESE ARE YOUR SAINTS OH LORD”!

Psa 79:5, HOW LONG, LORD? WILL YOU BE ANGRY FOREVER? WILL YOUR JEALOUSY BURN LIKE FIRE? 

The Psalmist doesn’t say “WHY”, but how long! He knows that GOD has allowed this to happen to Israel. BECAUSE OF THE SIN OF ISRAEL GOD HAS GIVEN THEM OVER TO THEIR ENEMIES!

Jer 27:5-6, ‘I HAVE MADE THE EARTH, THE MAN AND THE BEAST that are on the ground, by MY GREAT POWER and by my outstretched arm, and have given it to whom it seemed proper to ME. AND NOW I HAVE GIVEN ALL THESE LANDS INTO THE HAND OF NEBUCHADNEZZAR THE KING OF BABYLON, MY SERVANT; …

Psa 79:8-9, Oh, DO NOT REMEMBER FORMER INIQUITIES AGAINST US! Let Your tender mercies come speedily to meet us, For we have been brought very low. HELP US, O God of our salvation, For the glory of Your name; And deliver us, and PROVIDE ATONEMENT FOR OUR SINS, FOR YOUR NAME’S SAKE!

When we have sinned against the LORD we must confess our sins, We must humble ourselves before HIM (1John 1:9)! Remember, scripture says that “Blessed is the nation whose GOD is the LORD, Psa 33:12″; YET IT DOESN’T MEAN THEY WILL NOT BE JUDGED, FOR HE CORRECTS THOSE WHOM HE LOVES!

Jer 25:29, FOR BEHOLD, I BEGIN TO BRING CALAMITY ON THE CITY WHICH IS CALLED BY MY NAME, AND SHOULD YOU BE UTTERLY UNPUNISHED? YOU SHALL NOT BE UNPUNISHED, for I will call for a sword on all the inhabitants of the earth,” SAYS THE LORD OF HOSTS.’ 

Psalm 76, Who can stand?

Psa 76:1, …In Judah God is known; His name is great in Israel. In Salem also is His tabernacle, And His dwelling place in Zion.

GOD made HIS presence know to HIS people when king Sennacherib invaded Israel! They surrounded Jerusalem and he sent the Rabshakeh, an Assyrian Officer, to speak to Israel!

Isa 36:15, NOR LET HEZEKIAH MAKE YOU TRUST IN THE LORD, saying, “THE LORD WILL SURELY DELIVER US; this city will not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.” ‘

Psa 76:3, There He broke the arrows of the bow, The shield and sword of battle. Selah 

Isa 54:17, NO WEAPON FORMED AGAINST YOU SHALL PROSPER, AND EVERY TONGUE WHICH RISES AGAINST YOU IN JUDGMENT YOU SHALL CONDEMN….

Psa 76:5-6, The stouthearted were plundered; THEY HAVE SUNK INTO THEIR SLEEP; … At Your rebuke, O God of Jacob, Both the chariot and horse were cast INTO A DEAD SLEEP.

In one night, the GOD of Israel made HIMSELF known; when HE slew 185,000 Assyrians!

Isa 37:36, Then the ANGEL OF THE LORD went out, and killed in the camp of the Assyrians one hundred and eighty-five thousand; …

Psa 76:7-8, You, Yourself, are to be feared; And WHO MAY STAND IN YOUR PRESENCE WHEN ONCE YOU ARE ANGRY? You caused judgment to be heard from heaven; THE EARTH FEARED AND WAS STILL,

YES, the LORD is a GOD of love, but HE is also just and righteous! HE will condemn the wicked for the day of the LORD is near!

Nah 1:6, WHO CAN STAND BEFORE HIS INDIGNATION? AND WHO CAN ENDURE THE FIERCENESS OF HIS ANGER? HIS FURY IS POURED OUT LIKE FIRE, AND THE ROCKS ARE THROWN DOWN BY HIM. 

Psa 76:11-12, Make vows to the LORD your God, and pay them; …. HE IS AWESOME TO THE kings OF THE EARTH.

Nah 1:7, The LORD is good, A stronghold in the day of trouble; AND HE KNOWS THOSE WHO TRUST IN HIM. 

Believe it or not, in HIS eyes those that trust in HIM are kings! For HE is the KING OF kings! Trust in the LORD for HE is good!

Psalm 75, The cup of HIS wrath!

Psa 75:1, … We give thanks to You, O God, we give thanks! For Your wondrous works declare that Your name is near.

The works of the LORD, in regards to Israel, are simply amazing! We should always give thanks to the LORD for HE continues to work!

Deu 4:33-34, DID ANY PEOPLE ever hear the voice of God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as you have heard, and live? Or did God ever try to go and take for Himself a nation from the midst of another nation, by trials, by signs, by wonders, by war, by a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, and by great terrors, according to all that THE LORD YOUR GOD DID FOR YOU IN EGYPT BEFORE YOUR EYES?

Psa 75:4-5, “I SAID TO THE BOASTFUL, ‘Do not deal boastfully,’ And to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up the horn. Do not lift up your horn on high; Do not speak with a stiff neck.’ “

HE has said to those that brag and the proud, “STOP BOASTING, STOP BEING PRIDEFUL; IT’S NOT ABOUT YOU, BUT IT’S ABOUT HIM”!

Psa 75:6-7, FOR EXALTATION comes neither from the east Nor from the west nor from the south. BUT GOD IS THE JUDGE: HE PUTS DOWN ONE, AND EXALTS ANOTHER.

THE LORD PROMOTES WHO HE WILLS! HE WOULD EVEN LIFT UP A CORRUPT RULER IN ORDER TO JUDGE A NATION! HE IS IN FULL CONTROL, NOTHING GETS PAST HIM!

Pro 29:2, When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan. 

Luk 1:52, HE HAS PUT DOWN THE MIGHTY FROM THEIR THRONES, AND EXALTED THE LOWLY. 

Psa 75:8, FOR IN THE HAND OF THE LORD THERE IS A CUP, And the wine is red; It is fully mixed, and He pours it out; SURELY ITS DREGS SHALL ALL THE WICKED OF THE EARTH DRAIN AND DRINK DOWN.

Job 21:20b, … LET HIM DRINK OF THE WRATH OF THE ALMIGHTY.

The cup in HIS hand is a cup of wrath, a cup of judgement which the wicked will one day drink even to it’s dregs! YET Remember the LORD HIMSELF drank that cup for us, HE took the punishment that we deserved on HIMSELF!

Isa 51:22, Thus says your Lord, The LORD and your God, Who pleads the cause of His people: “See, I HAVE TAKEN OUT OF YOUR HAND THE CUP OF TREMBLING, The dregs of the cup of My fury; YOU SHALL NO LONGER DRINK IT. 

Psalm 63, Longing for HIS coming!

Psa 63:1, …O GOD, YOU ARE MY GOD; EARLY WILL I SEEK YOU; MY SOUL THIRSTS FOR YOU; MY FLESH LONGS FOR YOU In a dry and thirsty land Where there is no water.

David sought the LORD daily not because he was forced or by habit, but because he knew GOD! A human body will not last long without water, and GOD was as water for David! Job also longed for GOD!

Job 19:25-27, For I know that my REDEEMER LIVES, And HE SHALL STAND AT LAST ON THE EARTH; And after my skin is destroyed, this I know, THAT IN MY FLESH I SHALL SEE GOD, Whom I shall see for myself, AND MY EYES SHALL BEHOLD, AND NOT ANOTHER. HOW MY HEART YEARNS WITHIN ME!

David, Job, Isaiah and many others yearned to see the LORD; do you? HE WILL ONE DAY WITHOUT WARNING APPEAR AND ALL FLESH SHALL SEE HIS APPEARING!

Tit 2:13, LOOKING FOR THE BLESSED HOPE AND GLORIOUS APPEARING OF OUR GREAT GOD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST,

Psa 63:3, BECAUSE YOUR LOVINGKINDNESS IS BETTER THAN LIFE, MY LIPS SHALL PRAISE YOU. 

The LORD is worthy to be praised, remember HE paid a high price for us; HIS EARTHLY LIFE!

1Co 6:20, FOR YOU WERE BOUGHT AT A PRICE; THEREFORE GLORIFY GOD IN YOUR BODY AND IN YOUR SPIRIT, WHICH ARE GOD’S. 

Psa 63:11, But the king shall rejoice in God; EVERYONE WHO SWEARS BY HIM SHALL GLORY; BUT THE MOUTH OF THOSE WHO SPEAK LIES SHALL BE STOPPED. 

HE IS COMING AGAIN, AND THOSE THAT KNOW GOD WILL REJOICE AT HIS COMING, BUT THE WICKED WILL BE PUNISHED!

Isa 13:11, “I will punish the world for its evil, And the wicked for their iniquity; I will halt the arrogance of the proud, And will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible. 

BE READY FOR HE IS NEAR; HE IS AT THE DOOR READY TO COME FOR HIS BRIDE!
