Isaiah 47

New King James Version (NKJV)

The Humiliation of Babylon

The prophet Eliyah here declaring a word of warning to Babylon, who soon had forgetten who had brought her to greatness: Does this sound familiar to anyone?

This story with eerie similarity to ours, the free world, a people who’s JudeoChristian tenants became their strength – freedom, tenants that seemingly dwindle before our very eyes, the instigator? she who calls for respect in place of shame, she who says, we know the secrets – they are revealed to us, you know her; the professional prognosticators of times, the worshipers of idols (other g-ds), of things, the accusers of the Word – offenders of the Works; Babylon you back-stabber, you who received greatness, the things only YHWH birthed, you know the strength – the freedom, you sorcerer, adulterer, disrespector of mother and father; you lie to your loved ones, seeking loose sexual conduct, a therapy; you know salvation and destruction, it doesn’t affect you.

Strengthen yourselves daily friends, don’t cease to speak the Word – walk the Works – warning others, but most of all, guard against her – that you too may not fall, for it is written, for it will be, a matter for the crushing.

With love. Always in YH’shua.

Strong’s Hebrew Lexicon:

Dust: 1854 daqaq daw-kak’ a primitive root (Compare 1915); to crush (or intransitively) crumble:–beat in pieces (small), bruise, make dust, (into) X powder, (be, very) small, stamp (small).

 

“How far does Messiah go to protect the integrity of the Father’s temple?” “Are we as passionate?”

May it be so, in YH’shua (YH’s salvation).

2 Kings 6:16

New King James Version (NKJV)

“¹⁶ So he answered, “Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” Amein and Amein!!!!

Above, a true prophet of YHWH (the name, Word and Works, of Elohim, etc..) is woken to a servant that can only see that which is before him – an army of Syrian troops; his servant’s faith proving similar to YH’shua’s servants, who while in the midst of a storm only had their attention on the storm. The solution? they refocused their thoughts on what the prophet what saying, that reassurance follows.

In the examples above, there is a moment were the difference between a prophet and his servant is clear, one has faith and the other doesn’t! The solution given? to listen to the prophet, the host of YHWH, the Scriptures. David puts it this way in Psalm 1: 1-3 (NKJV):

“1 Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly (unelohimly: un-great or un-mighty, etc..), Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful; ² But his delight is in the law (the commands (the wisdom) etc..) of the Lord (YHWH: the name, Word and Works, of Elohim), And in His law (commands (wisdom)) he meditates day and night.³ He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper.” HalleluYH!!!!

The lessons here? To always look beyond ourselves (man) – staying focused on YHWH’s wisdom (Word and Works); that to listen to the Word and Works of the Elohim of Abraham, is to look beyond our own uncertainties – that armies may fall and storms subside: To grow in the wisdom of YHWH, is to grow in faith, is to be strengthened in all areas of our lives.  Amein, Amein!!!! 🙂
