Isaiah’s Log, Friday, Tishri 22, 748 B.C.

I am longing for the day when the Holy One of Israel and Judah makes us one nation once again and their will be peace and such blessing, such as we have never known before.

YHWH has called us to walk in His light.  The house of Jacob has for too long been in darkness, influenced by the dark actions and deeds of the Assyrians and Babylonians.  They have gotten into the worship of their idols made by men’s hands, and darkness covered the land of God’s promise and people.

Pride has filled the hearts of the kings and nations of the earth, because they have overwhelmed the nation of God.  They believe their gods are more powerful than the God of Heaven.  The One who created all that is will come and judge these nations, and they will fall.  They will crumble to the earth.  ‘The haughty looks of man shall be brought low, and the lofty pride of men shall be humbled, and the LORD alone will be exalted in that day.’

There is a day coming when all the arrogance and pride of men will be brought low, and no one will stand against the Holy One of Israel and Judah.  Men of flesh will bow before the Almighty.  The works of their hands, their idols, will go up in smoke, the ones made of stone will be smashed to pieces.  The ones of precious metals, as gold and silver, will be put the fire and be purified, and go back from whence it came.

At the time of the Holy One’s judgment many will flee to the rocks and caves, and holes in the ground, fleeing from the splendor of His majesty and power.  He will come as a terror to those who dwell on the earth.

There is nothing; no man, no idol, no building of man’s making will be able to stand.  O, that the people who dwell on the earth would only realize that man is nothing before the power and fierceness of the judgment of God.
