Isaiah 26, Come MY people enter your chambers!

Isa 26:1-2, IN THAT DAY THIS SONG WILL BE SUNG IN THE LAND OF JUDAH: “WE HAVE A STRONG CITY; GOD WILL APPOINT SALVATION FOR WALLS AND BULWARKS. OPEN THE GATES, That the righteous nation which keeps the truth may enter in.

This is the coming of the new city of Jerusalem; the city not made by man, but by GOD HIMSELF!

Rev 21:2, THEN I, JOHN, SAW THE HOLY CITY, NEW JERUSALEM, COMING DOWN OUT OF HEAVEN FROM GOD, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 

This is the same city that Abraham waited for.

Heb 11:10, FOR HE WAITED FOR THE CITY WHICH HAS FOUNDATIONS, WHOSE BUILDER AND MAKER IS GOD. 

Isa 26:3-4, YOU WILL KEEP HIM IN PERFECT PEACE, WHOSE MIND IS STAYED ON YOU, BECAUSE HE TRUSTS IN YOU. TRUST IN THE LORD FOREVER, FOR IN YAH, THE LORD, IS EVERLASTING STRENGTH.

Israel had times of peace, but they were watchful for the enemy. Now, with the LORD in their mist, PERFECT PEACE WILL REIGN!

Isa 26:19, Your dead shall live; Together with my dead body they shall arise. Awake and sing, you who dwell in dust; For your dew is like the dew of herbs, And the earth shall cast out the dead. 

It’s interesting the Isaiah now has a vision prior to the great tribulation; the rapture of the church is seen here! 1Thes 4:13-16

1Th 4:16, For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. AND THE DEAD IN CHRIST WILL RISE FIRST. 

Isa 26:20, Come, my people, enter your chambers, And shut your doors behind you; Hide yourself, AS IT WERE, FOR A LITTLE MOMENT, UNTIL THE INDIGNATION IS PAST. 

The bride will be hidden from the tribulation which will come to the world!

Rev 3:10, BECAUSE YOU HAVE KEPT MY COMMAND TO PERSEVERE, I ALSO WILL KEEP YOU FROM THE HOUR OF TRIAL WHICH SHALL COME UPON THE WHOLE WORLD, TO TEST THOSE WHO DWELL ON THE EARTH. 

Isa 26:21, FOR BEHOLD, THE LORD COMES OUT OF HIS PLACE TO PUNISH THE INHABITANTS OF THE EARTH FOR THEIR INIQUITY; THE EARTH WILL ALSO DISCLOSE HER BLOOD, AND WILL NO MORE COVER HER SLAIN. 

Re-read Isaiah 24 & 25, the great tribulation! AS FOR ME AND MY HOUSE WE WILL SERVE THE LORD; FOR WE DON’T WANT ANY PART OF THE TRIAL WHICH IS TO COME!

Isaiah 24, The DAY OF THE LORD!

Isa 24:1, BEHOLD, THE LORD MAKES THE EARTH EMPTY AND MAKES IT WASTE, DISTORTS ITS SURFACE AND SCATTERS ABROAD ITS INHABITANTS. 

Isaiah now sees the great tribulation, the day of the LORD; which will hit the entire world!

Isa 24:2, And it shall be: As with THE PEOPLE, so with THE PRIEST; As with THE SERVANT, so with HIS MASTER; As with THE MAID, so with HER MISTRESS…. Buyer, seller, lender, etc.

No one will escape this wrath, their money will be useless, their influence gone; whether rich or poor judgement has come to all!

Isa 24:3, THE LAND SHALL BE ENTIRELY EMPTIED AND UTTERLY PLUNDERED, FOR THE LORD HAS SPOKEN THIS WORD. 

There shall be areas completely wipe out, but according to scripture one third will be killed!

Rev 9:15, SO THE FOUR ANGELS, WHO HAD BEEN PREPARED FOR THE HOUR AND DAY AND MONTH AND YEAR, WERE RELEASED TO KILL A THIRD OF MANKIND. 

Isa 24:5-6, The earth is also defiled under its inhabitants, BECAUSE THEY HAVE TRANSGRESSED THE LAWS, CHANGED THE ORDINANCE, BROKEN THE EVERLASTING COVENANT. THEREFORE THE CURSE HAS DEVOURED THE EARTH, AND THOSE WHO DWELL IN IT ARE DESOLATE. THEREFORE THE INHABITANTS OF THE EARTH ARE BURNED, AND FEW MEN ARE LEFT.

Man have defiled themselves and the earth with his sin and wickedness. So, judgement comes! The whole chapter describes the people mourning, the earth split opened, and great fear, but after they will see the coming KING!

Mar 13:26, THEN THEY WILL SEE THE SON OF MAN COMING IN THE CLOUDS WITH GREAT POWER AND GLORY. 

Isa 24:23, THEN THE MOON WILL BE DISGRACED AND THE SUN ASHAMED; FOR THE LORD OF HOSTS WILL REIGN ON MOUNT ZION AND IN JERUSALEM AND BEFORE HIS ELDERS, GLORIOUSLY. 

HIS shekinah glory shall be seen upon the earth, and HIS light will be greater than any light ever seen! THE KING IS COMING, ALL BOW DOWN, THE KING IS NEAR BE READY!

Rev 21:23, The city had no need of the sun or of the moon to shine in it, FOR THE GLORY OF GOD ILLUMINATED IT. THE LAMB IS ITS LIGHT. 

Isaiah 23, HE brings dishonor to all prideful nations!

Isa 23:1, THE BURDEN AGAINST TYRE. WAIL, YOU SHIPS OF TARSHISH! FOR IT IS LAID WASTE, SO THAT THERE IS NO HOUSE, NO HARBOR; …

The people of Tyre were known as Phoenicians who had many ships. It was the commercial capital of the world bringing in good and material from all over the known world! 

Isa 23:9, THE LORD OF HOSTS HAS PURPOSED IT, TO BRING TO DISHONOR THE PRIDE OF ALL GLORY, TO BRING INTO CONTEMPT ALL THE HONORABLE OF THE EARTH. 

Because of it’s great success as a shipping harbor Tyre became proud of it’s accomplishments! PRIDE is an abomination to the LORD, and to think that our country celebrates PRIDE with it’s own month! JUDGEMENT IS COMING!

Pro 16:5, EVERYONE PROUD IN HEART IS AN ABOMINATION TO THE LORD; Though they join forces, NONE WILL GO UNPUNISHED. 

Isa 23:13, Behold, the land of the Chaldeans, This people which was not; Assyria founded it for wild beasts of the desert. THEY SET UP ITS TOWERS, THEY RAISED UP ITS PALACES, AND BROUGHT IT TO RUIN. 

The main land of Tyre was indeed defeated by both the Assyrians and Babylonians. The people Tyre moved out to a small island off it’s shores to get away from Alexander the Great!

Eze 26:12, They will plunder your riches and pillage your merchandise; they will break down your walls and destroy your pleasant houses; THEY WILL LAY YOUR STONES, YOUR TIMBER, AND YOUR SOIL IN THE MIDST OF THE WATER.

In order to reach Tyre who were on the island, Alexander had to make a land bridge from the ruins of Tyre. Strange prophecy, but it fulfilled by Alexander the Great!

The destruction of these nations will continue, but there is one kingdom which will never end!

Dan 7:13-14, “I was watching in the night visions, And behold, ONE LIKE THE SON OF MAN, COMING WITH THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN! He came to the Ancient of Days, And they brought Him near before Him. THEN TO HIM WAS GIVEN DOMINION AND GLORY AND A KINGDOM, THAT ALL PEOPLES, NATIONS, AND LANGUAGES SHOULD SERVE HIM. HIS DOMINION IS AN EVERLASTING DOMINION, WHICH SHALL NOT PASS AWAY, AND HIS KINGDOM THE ONE WHICH SHALL NOT BE DESTROYED.

The kingdom of the COMING KING, JESUS is from everlasting to everlasting! And HE Shall reign forever! The pride of nations and people will come to an end! Be Ready HE is COMING!

Isaiah 22, Humble yourselves before the LORD!

Isa 22:1, The burden against the VALLEY OF VISION. What ails you now, that you have all gone up to the housetops

The LORD used Jerusalem to give vision or revelation to Israel and the world; Valley of Vision is Jerusalem! Pro 29:18. This is the burden against GOD’s own people in Judah! WHAT GOOD IS A VISION OR REVELATION IF YOU IGNORE THEM?

Isa 22:2-3, You who are full of noise, A tumultuous city, a joyous city? YOUR SLAIN MEN ARE NOT SLAIN WITH THE SWORD, NOR DEAD IN BATTLE. ALL YOUR RULERS HAVE FLED TOGETHER; They are captured by the archers. All who are found in you are bound together; THEY HAVE FLED FROM AFAR.

Jerusalem was surrounded by the Chaldeans, Babylon, but the men of Judah didn’t die in battle, but they died by starvation, and pestilence. Others died by trying to sneak out of Jerusalem. 2Ki 25:4-5

Jer 38:2, “Thus says the LORD: ‘He who remains in this city shall die by the sword, by famine, and by pestilence; but he who goes over to the Chaldeans shall live; his life shall be as a prize to him, and he shall live.’ 

Isa 22:4-5, Therefore I said, “LOOK AWAY FROM ME, I WILL WEEP BITTERLY; Do not labor to comfort me Because of THE PLUNDERING OF THE DAUGHTER OF MY PEOPLE.” For it is a day of trouble and treading down and perplexity BY THE LORD GOD OF HOSTS IN THE VALLEY OF VISION

Isaiah was crying when he saw this vision of his own people being plundered; for Israel has rejected GOD! GOD removed Judah’s protection! Isa 22:8

Isa 22:11-12, … BUT YOU DID NOT LOOK TO ITS MAKER, NOR DID YOU HAVE RESPECT FOR HIM WHO FASHIONED IT LONG AGO. And in that day the LORD GOD OF HOSTS CALLED FOR WEEPING AND FOR MOURNING, FOR BALDNESS AND FOR GIRDING WITH SACKCLOTH.

The LORD wanted HIS people to turn to HIM for help; HE wanted HIS people to humble themselves before the LORD

Isa 22:13, But instead, joy and gladness, Slaying oxen and killing sheep, Eating meat and drinking wine: “LET US EAT AND DRINK, FOR TOMORROW WE DIE!” 

2Ch 7:14, IF MY PEOPLE WHO ARE CALLED BY MY NAME WILL HUMBLE THEMSELVES, AND PRAY AND SEEK MY FACE, AND TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS, THEN I WILL HEAR FROM HEAVEN, AND WILL FORGIVE THEIR SIN AND HEAL THEIR LAND. 

Judah was conquered by Babylon for they refused to listen and humble themselves before their GOD!

Lam 3:40, LET US SEARCH OUT AND EXAMINE OUR WAYS, AND TURN BACK TO THE LORD; 

Isaiah 19, Wait and see, for it will surely come to pass!

Isa 19:1-2, The burden against Egypt. BEHOLD, THE LORD RIDES ON A SWIFT CLOUD, AND WILL COME INTO EGYPT; The idols of Egypt will totter at His presence, And the heart of Egypt will melt in its midst. “I will set Egyptians against Egyptians; Everyone will fight against his brother, And everyone against his neighbor, City against city, kingdom against kingdom.

As the LORD struck the land of Egypt with the 10 plagues, HE will strike them again!

Isa 19:3-4, The spirit of Egypt will fail in its midst; I will destroy their counsel, And they will consult the idols and the charmers, The mediums and the sorcerers. And the Egyptians I will give Into the hand of a CRUEL MASTER, And A FIERCE KING WILL RULE OVER THEM,” Says the Lord, the LORD of hosts.

Often the LORD strikes a nation by destroying their wise counsel and by giving a bad leader! This looks like the United States today!

Isa 19:14-15, The LORD has mingled a perverse spirit in her midst; And they have caused Egypt TO ERR IN ALL HER WORK, As a drunken man staggers in his vomit. NEITHER WILL THERE BE ANY WORK FOR EGYPT…

Egypt’s economy will be completely crushed, and the fear of the LORD will come upon them!

Isa 19:20b, …for they will cry to the LORD because of the oppressors, and HE WILL SEND THEM A SAVIOR AND A MIGHTY ONE, AND HE WILL DELIVER THEM. 

Egypt, currently a Islamic country, will come to know the LORD!

Isa 19:21, THEN THE LORD WILL BE KNOWN TO EGYPT, AND THE EGYPTIANS WILL KNOW THE LORD IN THAT DAY, and will make sacrifice and offering; yes, they will make a vow to the LORD and perform it. 

NOT ONLY EGYPT, BUT ALSO ASSYRIA!

Isa 19:24-25, IN THAT DAY ISRAEL WILL BE ONE OF THREE WITH EGYPT AND ASSYRIA—A BLESSING IN THE MIDST OF THE LAND, WHOM THE LORD OF HOSTS SHALL BLESS, SAYING, “BLESSED IS EGYPT MY PEOPLE, AND ASSYRIA THE WORK OF MY HANDS, AND ISRAEL MY INHERITANCE.”

This may seem impossible today, but wait, just wait; for it will surely take place! HE KNOWS THE END FROM THE VERY BEGINNING!

Hab 2:3, FOR THE VISION IS YET FOR AN APPOINTED TIME; BUT AT THE END IT WILL SPEAK, AND IT WILL NOT LIE. THOUGH IT TARRIES, WAIT FOR IT; BECAUSE IT WILL SURELY COME, IT WILL NOT TARRY.

Isaiah 18, The LORD doesn’t need help!

Isa 18:1-2, Woe to the land shadowed with buzzing wings, WHICH IS BEYOND THE RIVERS OF ETHIOPIA, Which sends ambassadors by sea, Even in vessels of reed on the waters, saying, “GO, SWIFT MESSENGERS, TO A NATION TALL AND SMOOTH OF SKIN, To a people terrible from their beginning onward, A nation powerful and treading down, WHOSE LAND THE RIVERS DIVIDE.” 

The nation of Ethiopia wanted to form a confederacy with Israel against Assyria; Yet, Isaiah points out that GOD will protect Israel and HE has a message to all the world!

Isa 18:3, NLT, ALL YOU PEOPLE OF THE WORLD, EVERYONE WHO LIVES ON THE EARTH—WHEN I RAISE MY BATTLE FLAG ON THE MOUNTAIN, LOOK! WHEN I BLOW THE RAM’S HORN, LISTEN!

When GOD is working look and listen for no man is able to stand before the living GOD! HE doesn’t need an alliance of men to destroy Assyria; for HE is in full control of everything!

Exo 14:14, THE LORD WILL FIGHT FOR YOU, AND YOU SHALL HOLD YOUR PEACE.” 

Isa 18:4, NLT, For the LORD has told me this: “I WILL WATCH QUIETLY FROM MY DWELLING PLACE…. EVEN BEFORE YOU BEGIN YOUR ATTACK, WHILE YOUR PLANS ARE RIPENING LIKE GRAPES, THE LORD WILL CUT OFF YOUR NEW GROWTH WITH PRUNING SHEARS. HE WILL SNIP OFF AND DISCARD YOUR SPREADING BRANCHES

HE, The LORD sees everything for HE is never sleeping nor resting; HE is always working! HE knows what HE’s doing and has a perfect plan!

Psa 121:3-5, He will not allow your foot to be moved; HE WHO KEEPS YOU WILL NOT SLUMBER. BEHOLD, HE WHO KEEPS ISRAEL SHALL NEITHER SLUMBER NOR SLEEP. THE LORD IS YOUR KEEPER; The LORD is your shade at your right hand.

Isa 18:6, THEY WILL BE LEFT TOGETHER FOR THE MOUNTAIN BIRDS OF PREY AND FOR THE BEASTS OF THE EARTH; THE BIRDS OF PREY WILL SUMMER ON THEM, AND ALL THE BEASTS OF THE EARTH WILL WINTER ON THEM. 

The bodies of those that came up against HIS people will be left as food for the wild animals!

Nah 1:6-7, 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. The LORD is good, A stronghold in the day of trouble; And HE KNOWS THOSE WHO TRUST IN HIM.

DO YOU TRUST IN HIM? HE DOESN’T NEED HELP FROM ANYONE FOR HE TREADS THE WINEPRESS ALONE!

Isaiah 17, Because they have forgotten GOD

Isa 17:1, THE BURDEN AGAINST DAMASCUS. “BEHOLD, DAMASCUS WILL CEASE FROM BEING A CITY, AND IT WILL BE A RUINOUS HEAP. 

Assyria, did in fact fight & destroyed the alliance of Syria and Ephraim who went against Judah! But, it’s still a city today; which points to a future attack! Today, Damascus is a heap of ruins, but in the near future it will be utterly destroyed! A double prophecy of destruction!

Amo 1:3-5, Thus says the LORD: “For three transgressions of Damascus, and for four, I WILL NOT TURN AWAY ITS PUNISHMENT, BECAUSE THEY HAVE THRESHED GILEAD WITH IMPLEMENTS OF IRON. BUT I WILL SEND A FIRE INTO THE HOUSE OF HAZAEL, WHICH SHALL DEVOUR THE PALACES OF BEN-HADAD. I WILL ALSO BREAK THE GATE BAR OF DAMASCUS, AND CUT OFF THE INHABITANT FROM THE VALLEY OF AVEN, …

Isa 17:7, IN THAT DAY A MAN WILL LOOK TO HIS MAKER, AND HIS EYES WILL HAVE RESPECT FOR THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL. 

When 911 came upon New York the churches were filled for they thought this is the beginning of the end! YET slowly left the churches because life was getting back to normal! WHEN THIS PROPHECY COMES TO PASS, THEN MEN WILL ONCE AGAIN LOOK TO GOD THEIR MAKER!

Isa 17:8, HE WILL NOT LOOK TO THE ALTARS, THE WORK OF HIS HANDS; HE WILL NOT RESPECT WHAT HIS FINGERS HAVE MADE, NOR THE WOODEN IMAGES NOR THE INCENSE ALTARS.

This is the one of GOD’s purposes to get man to look upon HIM and not their useless idols!

Psa 115:4-7, THEIR IDOLS ARE SILVER AND GOLD, THE WORK OF MEN’S HANDS. THEY HAVE MOUTHS, BUT THEY DO NOT SPEAK; EYES THEY HAVE, BUT THEY DO NOT SEE; THEY HAVE EARS, BUT THEY DO NOT HEAR; NOSES THEY HAVE, BUT THEY DO NOT SMELL; THEY HAVE HANDS, BUT THEY DO NOT HANDLE; FEET THEY HAVE, BUT THEY DO NOT WALK; NOR DO THEY MUTTER THROUGH THEIR THROAT.

Isa 17:10, BECAUSE YOU HAVE FORGOTTEN THE GOD OF YOUR SALVATION, AND HAVE NOT BEEN MINDFUL OF THE ROCK OF YOUR STRONGHOLD…

HIS word will come to pass as it is written! Don’t trust in idols for they are dead, but trust in the LORD! Judgment will come because men have forgotten or ignored the GOD of all creation!

Deu 8:11, “BEWARE THAT YOU DO NOT FORGET THE LORD YOUR GOD BY NOT KEEPING HIS COMMANDMENTS, HIS JUDGMENTS, AND HIS STATUTES WHICH I COMMAND YOU TODAY, 

Isaiah 16, After the wrath the KING comes!

Isa 16:1, Send the lamb to the ruler of the land, From SELA to the wilderness, TO THE MOUNT OF THE DAUGHTER OF ZION.

Isaiah was writing of judgement coming to Moab, so he says THAT MOAB SHOULD START AGAIN BRINGING TRIBUTE TO JERUSALEM AND SUBMITTING THEMSELVES TO GOD!

2Ki 3:4, Now Mesha king of Moab was a sheepbreeder, and HE REGULARLY PAID THE KING OF ISRAEL ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND LAMBS…

Isa 16:2, FOR IT SHALL BE AS A WANDERING BIRD THROWN OUT OF THE NEST; …

Isaiah compared Moab to a helpless little bird confused, weak and vulnerable. So are many Christians who wonder from church to church; Spurgeon called them “GIPSY-CHRISTIANS”!

Pro 27:8, Like a bird that wanders from its nest Is a man who wanders from his place. 

Isa 16:4 NLT, LET OUR REFUGEES STAY AMONG YOU. HIDE THEM FROM OUR ENEMIES UNTIL THE TERROR IS PAST.” WHEN OPPRESSION AND DESTRUCTION HAVE ENDED AND ENEMY RAIDERS HAVE DISAPPEARED, 

Isiah changes focus from Moab to the tribulation time when the remnant of Israel will hide in Petra (Sela) in Moab (Jordan).

Mat 24:15-16, “Therefore when you see the ‘ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION,’ spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place” (whoever reads, let him understand), “THEN LET THOSE WHO ARE IN JUDEA FLEE TO THE MOUNTAINS.

Isa 16:5, IN MERCY THE THRONE WILL BE ESTABLISHED; AND ONE WILL SIT ON IT IN TRUTH, IN THE TABERNACLE OF DAVID, JUDGING AND SEEKING JUSTICE AND HASTENING RIGHTEOUSNESS.”

An Isaiah sees even further to the time in which the MESSIAH WILL REIGN ON THE THRONE OF DAVID. And, those that ran for their lives will be gathered again in Israel!

Mic 4:6-7, “In that day,” says the LORD, “I will assemble the lame, I will gather the outcast And those whom I have afflicted; I will make the lame a remnant, And the outcast a strong nation; SO THE LORD WILL REIGN OVER THEM IN MOUNT ZION FROM NOW ON, EVEN FOREVER.

JESUS, the MESSIAH will reign as KING of the earth! HIS throne will be forever and ever!  Be ready, the KING is coming!

Heb 1:8, But to the Son He says: “YOUR THRONE, O GOD, IS FOREVER AND EVER; A SCEPTER OF RIGHTEOUSNESS IS THE SCEPTER OF YOUR KINGDOM. 

Isaiah 15, Judgement has come to MOAB!

Isa 15:1, THE BURDEN AGAINST MOAB. BECAUSE IN THE NIGHT Ar of MOAB IS LAID WASTE AND DESTROYED, Because in the night Kir of Moab is laid waste And destroyed, 

The wrath of GOD has come to MOAB, which is modern day Jordan, South East of Israel. While everyone was sleeping destruction came!

Isa 15:2-3, He has gone up to the temple and Dibon, TO THE HIGH PLACES TO WEEP. Moab will wail over Nebo and over Medeba; On all their heads will be baldness, And every beard cut off. In their streets they will clothe themselves with sackcloth; … EVERYONE WILL WAIL, WEEPING BITTERLY.

Jer 48:42, AND MOAB SHALL BE DESTROYED AS A PEOPLE, BECAUSE HE EXALTED HIMSELF AGAINST THE LORD. 

No man no country can exalt themselves before GOD and live! When judgement comes the only thing people can do is cry.

Heb 10:31, IT IS A FEARFUL THING TO FALL INTO THE HANDS OF THE LIVING GOD. 

Isa 15:6-7, FOR THE WATERS OF NIMRIM WILL BE DESOLATE, FOR THE GREEN GRASS HAS WITHERED AWAY; THE GRASS FAILS, THERE IS NOTHING GREEN. THEREFORE THE ABUNDANCE THEY HAVE GAINED, AND WHAT THEY HAVE LAID UP, THEY WILL CARRY AWAY TO THE BROOK OF THE WILLOWS.

There is nothing left for MOAB, No water, no vegetation everything has withered away! THOSE WHO SURVIVE shall carry away what little they have left and flee away!

Isa 15:9, FOR THE WATERS OF DIMON WILL BE FULL OF BLOOD; BECAUSE I WILL BRING MORE UPON DIMON, LIONS UPON HIM WHO ESCAPES FROM MOAB, AND ON THE REMNANT OF THE LAND.”

The refugees who survive the initial attack will be killed! Complete and utter destruction! As Judgement came to Moab, so it must come here as well! The day of the LORD comes, and there is only one way to escape!

1Th 5:9, FOR GOD DID NOT APPOINT US TO WRATH, BUT TO OBTAIN SALVATION THROUGH OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, 

Remember GOD is love, but HE is also JUST! HE has given every sinner a way of salvation through HIS SON who died for us!

Rom 5:8-9, BUT GOD DEMONSTRATES HIS OWN LOVE TOWARD US, IN THAT WHILE WE WERE STILL SINNERS, CHRIST DIED FOR US. MUCH MORE THEN, HAVING NOW BEEN JUSTIFIED BY HIS BLOOD, WE SHALL BE SAVED FROM WRATH THROUGH HIM.

Get right with the LORD for HE is coming!

Isaiah 14, Pride comes before the fall!

Isa 14:1, FOR THE LORD WILL HAVE MERCY ON JACOB, AND WILL STILL CHOOSE ISRAEL, AND SETTLE THEM IN THEIR OWN LAND. …

After the devastation of Israel by the hand of Babylon the LORD will bring back a remnant of HIS people! It also happened in WWII and it will also happen again in the near future! 

Rom 11:5, EVEN SO THEN, AT THIS PRESENT TIME THERE IS A REMNANT ACCORDING TO THE ELECTION OF GRACE. 

Isa 14:9, “HELL FROM BENEATH IS EXCITED ABOUT YOU, TO MEET YOU AT YOUR COMING…

Isaiah wrote about the king of Babylon, but he is also talking about satan himself!

Isa 14:12, “HOW YOU ARE FALLEN FROM HEAVEN, O LUCIFER, SON OF THE MORNING! HOW YOU ARE CUT DOWN TO THE GROUND, YOU WHO WEAKENED THE NATIONS!  

Satan once had a great position in heaven till iniquity (PRIDE) was found in him!

Eze 28:14-15, “You were the anointed cherub who covers; I established you; You were on the holy mountain of God; You walked back and forth in the midst of fiery stones. You were perfect in your ways from the day you were created, TILL INIQUITY WAS FOUND IN YOU.

He, satan, wanted to be GOD

Isa 14:13-14, For you have said in your heart: ‘I WILL ASCEND INTO HEAVEN, I WILL EXALT MY THRONE ABOVE THE STARS OF GOD; I WILL ALSO SIT ON THE MOUNT OF THE CONGREGATION ON THE FARTHEST SIDES OF THE NORTH; I WILL ASCEND ABOVE THE HEIGHTS OF THE CLOUDS, I WILL BE LIKE THE MOST HIGH.’

He wanted to be exalted like GOD, He wanted to sit on HIS throne and receive praise! YET!

Isa 14:15-16, YET YOU SHALL BE BROUGHT DOWN TO SHEOL, TO THE LOWEST DEPTHS OF THE PIT …

Rev 19:20, THEN THE BEAST WAS CAPTURED, AND WITH HIM THE FALSE PROPHET WHO WORKED SIGNS IN HIS PRESENCE, …. THESE TWO WERE CAST ALIVE INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE BURNING WITH BRIMSTONE.

THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD, AND WHAT HE SAYS WILL BE DONE! REMEMBER, AS THIS NATION CELEBRATES PRIDE MONTH, “PRIDE COMES BEFORE THE FALL”!

Isa 14:24, 27, THE LORD OF HOSTS HAS SWORN, SAYING, “SURELY, AS I HAVE THOUGHT, SO IT SHALL COME TO PASS, AND AS I HAVE PURPOSED, SO IT SHALL STAND… FOR THE LORD OF HOSTS HAS PURPOSED, AND WHO WILL ANNUL IT? HIS HAND IS STRETCHED OUT, AND WHO WILL TURN IT BACK?”
