And now, DO NOT BE SCOFFERS, lest your bonds be made strong.. For I have heard from the Master YHWH of hosts, A DESTRUCTION DECREED UPON ALL THE EARTH."
Yes 33: 2- ; "O YHWH, show us favour, for we have waited for You. Be their arm every morning, our deliverance also in time of distress. At the noise of the rumbling the people shall flee. When You lift Yourself up, the gentiles shall be scattered. And Your plunder shall be gathered like the gathering of the caterpillar; as locusts rush about, they rush upon them.
YHWH is exalted, for He dwells on high; He has filled Zion with right-ruling and righteousness. And He shall be the trustworthiness of your times, a wealth of deliverance, wisdom and knowledge, THE FEAR OF YHWH - that is His treasure.""
See their brave ones shall cry outside, the messengers of peace weep bitterly. The highways shall be deserted, the wayfaring man shall have ceased. He has broken the covenant, he has despised the cities, he respected no man.
The earth shall mourn and languish, Lebanon shall be ashamed. Sharon shall be withered like a desert, and Bashan and Karmel be shaking.
"Now I rise up," declares YHWH. "Now I am exalted, now I am lifted up"...And peoples shall be like the burnings of lime, like thorns cutup they are burned in the fire..."
There will be a time when His plan will be completed and the sinfull, disobedient and unbelieving people of this world will see His anger...He warns us about His wrath to come...
But He also warns that we must not say that HE, YHWH, is slow to let His word come to pass...That He is patient and He wants His children to be saved...
Lets pray and warn the ones we love, so that they might be added to the number of believers..for time is running out! Lets thank Him for every extra day that is given unto the salvation of our beloved ones.
Lets clean ourselves up...HE continues in verses15-16 to say who will be judged as righteous;
"He who walks righteously and speaks what is straight, he who rejects the gain of oppressions, who keeps his hands from accepting bribes, who stops his ear from hearing of bloodshed, and shuts his eyes from seeing evil - he shall inhabit the heights; strongholds of rocks be his refuge. His bread shall be given him, his water be steadfast. .."
I know it is difficult in our times, but we need to be a light to other people...we must walk straight...When I read the 'requirements' above, I could help but ask the following questions:
- We live in a corrupt country and I have heard a lot of stories were people had to bribe government officials...either to get things done or undone.....its difficult, specially if you are innocent and charged unrighteous. But we cannot accept or give out bribes!
- Should we be watching stories like Greys Anatomy and Desperate Housewifes or even the local 7e laan? They are filled with unrighteousness! Almost ALL characters have been involved in adultery, living together and homosexuality...these thing are an abomination to YHWH...
- We are so accustomed to evil...to bloodshed...but we must close our eyes, and not indulge ourselves in it...because it WILL swallow you up in fear...We have hope...We have salvation...We have Yehshua!
