For I the Lord love judgment, I hate robbery for burnt offering; and I will direct their work in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them. Isa 61:8 The New Covenant is the best and last covenant.

Yea, truth faileth; and he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey: and the Lord saw it, and it displeased him that there was no judgment. Isa 59:15 The liar seeks to elevate lying to an honorable station.     In order to do this they must destroy the person of truth.     Jesus told us to be wise as serpents and harmless as doves Mat 10:16.      In so doing we can escape the snares such liars lay for us.

Hearken unto me, my people; and give ear unto me, O my nation: for a law shall proceed from me, and I will make my judgment to rest for a light of the people. Isa 51:4

Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect, in whom my soul delighteth; I have put my spirit in him: he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles. Isa 42:1 Jesus is Spirit Filled.     The Holy Spirit Father manifested in the body and etermal Soul ( Word) of Christ Jesus.

A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench: he shall bring forth judgment unto truth. Isa 42:3

Yea, in the way of thy judgments, O Lord, have we waited for thee; the desire of our soul is to thy name, and to the remembrance of thee. Isa 26:8 All those who have received Christ Jesus await His return and the completion of their redemption.

And she hath changed my judgments into wickedness more than the nations, and my statutes more than the countries that are round about her: for they have refused my judgments and my statutes, they have not walked in them. Eze 5:6

And ye shall know that I am the Lord: for ye have not walked in my statutes, neither executed my judgments, but have done after the manners of the heathen that are round about you. Eze 11:12

And I gave them my statutes, and shewed them my judgments, which if a man do, he shall even live in them. Eze 20:11

I am the Lord, your Lord; walk in my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them; Eze 20:19

And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them. Eze 36:27 Prophecy of Spirit Baptism and the empowering of us to Walk in the Spirit.

And I will betroth thee unto me for ever; yea, I will betroth thee unto me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in lovingkindness, and in mercies. Hos 2:19 This promise is from the Lord Jesus Christ to those who believe on Him and receive Him as Mighty God, Saviour and Lord.      He betroths Himself to each of us by imparting His Holy Spirit into us and drawing us into Him.

Therefore turn thou to thy the Lord: keep mercy and judgment, and wait on thy the Lord continually. Hos 12:6 This is a call for Christians to return to their First Love and do their First Works.

But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream. Amo 5:24

Shall horses run upon the rock?     will one plow there with oxen?     for ye have turned judgment into gall, and the fruit of righteousness into hemlock: Amo 6:12

Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit in him, and he shall shew judgment to the Gentiles. Mat 12:18 The Holy Spirit Father filled Jesus so that Jesus is the Body Of God, the Soul Of God and the Spirit Of God.

And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind. Joh 9:39 Hunger and thirst - be filled.      Despise Grace and die.

Who knowing the judgment of the Lord, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them. Rom 1:32 Christians appreciate the support of likeminded believers but they do not depend on them.     Whereas unbelievers need their support group because of the guilt that they can't escape.

Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. 1Co 1:10 We all differ on nuances of the faith.     These nuances ought not be emphasized.     Rather we ought to focus on and revel in our Common Faith.     When we do we can worship in unity.     When we don't there will be divisions.

And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment; Phi 1:9 As we grow in Grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ we fall deeper in love with Him and our fellow believers.

For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the Lord, to do justice and judgment; that the Lord may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him. Gen 18:19

Wrong Thinking

For, behold, the Lord, the Lord of hosts, doth take away from Jerusalem and from Judah the stay and the staff, the whole stay of bread, and the whole stay of water. Isa 3:1 It is the Lord who brings forth increase.      As man moves further and further away from the Lord Jesus Christ, there is decrease.     Decrease in food products translates to famine.

The mighty man, and the man of war, the judge, and the prophet, and the prudent, and the ancient, Isa 3:2 It is the Lord who gives courage.      As man turns away from the Lord Jesus Christ there are no champions to fight for right - only self-seeking men who pose as champions.     There will be a dearth of wisdom as wisdom is founded in the fear of the Lord.     The experienced, wise older people will be written off as irrelevant.

The captain of fifty, and the honourable man, and the counsellor, and the cunning artificer, and the eloquent orator. Isa 3:3 Skills will fade and men will wax more and more ignorant and incompetent.      The people who command the stage, the mic and the camera will be fools speaking insanity.

And I will give children to be their princes, and babes shall rule over them. Isa 3:4 'Greta Thornberg' is an example of adult, educated, experiencd men giving sway to a child.

And the people shall be oppressed, every one by another, and every one by his neighbour: the child shall behave himself proudly against the ancient, and the base against the honourable. Isa 3:5 We see this today:    → Children rebelling against parents and teachers    → College students rebelling against police    → Businesses being robbed in broad daylight    → Honorable men being treated as evil.

When a man shall take hold of his brother of the house of his father, saying, Thou hast clothing, be thou our ruler, and let this ruin be under thy hand: Isa 3:6 When things get so bad, so hopeless, men will look for scapegoats and trust in liars for salvation.

In that day shall he swear, saying, I will not be an healer; for in my house is neither bread nor clothing: make me not a ruler of the people. Isa 3:7 Hopelessness is something we have never known in America.     But when we have completely cut ourselves off from the provision of our Lord, we will come to know it.

For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen: because their tongue and their doings are against the Lord, to provoke the eyes of his glory. Isa 3:8 Educating the young to turn against the Lord Jesus Christ has dire consequences.     Such so educated are empty spiritually and end up realizing the emptiness of their existence.     Suicides and dropping-out increase.

The shew of their countenance doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not.     Woe unto their soul!     for they have rewarded evil unto themselves. Isa 3:9 LGBTQ is a spiritual death thrust by Satan against every people of every age.      Enabling it opens the door for Satan to take everything that is good from those so disposed until all they experience is evil.

Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings. Isa 3:10 But there is hope for the righteous because they will continue to enjoy the blessings contained in the Law Of The Lord.

Woe unto the wicked!     it shall be ill with him: for the reward of his hands shall be given him. Isa 3:11 The curses built into the Law Of The Lord will flow out upon the rebellious.

As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them.     O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths. Isa 3:12 Man was created to rule over the woman 1Ti 2:12 1Co 11:9.      Aberrations from the Lord's prescribed order results in error, chaos, weakness and ultimate destruction Gen 3:6.

The Lord standeth up to plead, and standeth to judge the people. Isa 3:13 Jesus' coming is in two phases:    → 1st was to redeem us from the penalty of sin    → 2nd to judge men based on their response to Grace.

The Lord will enter into judgment with the ancients of his people, and the princes thereof: for ye have eaten up the vineyard; the spoil of the poor is in your houses. Isa 3:14 This reminds me of the national debt which is the equivalent of one generation eating up the vinyard so that there is no fruit for the next.

What mean ye that ye beat my people to pieces, and grind the faces of the poor?     saith the Lord of hosts. Isa 3:15 The American government has become abusive through taxation, regulation and legislation upon the people of the Lord.

Moreover the Lord saith, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with stretched forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet: Isa 3:16 Pride, promiscuity and prostitution mark the people of this age.     Not just the women, but the men also.

Therefore the Lord will smite with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the Lord will discover their secret parts. Isa 3:17 The secret sins of the child traffikers, the homosexuals and their supporters will be revealed.

In that day the Lord will take away the bravery of their tinkling ornaments about their feet, and their cauls, and their round tires like the moon, Isa 3:18 At the return of Christ, all falseness and pretense will evaporate.     The wicked will stand naked in that day before His piercing eyes for a brief moment before their destruction.

The chains, and the bracelets, and the mufflers, Isa 3:19 There is nothing wrong with bracelets and mufflers.     It is the sensual, materialistic, carnal Sin Nature that is repulsive and totally unacceptable to the Lord Jesus Christ.

The bonnets, and the ornaments of the legs, and the headbands, and the tablets, and the earrings, Isa 3:20 Nothing about our outward adornment matters to the Lord.     If it matters to you, you have a spiritual problem.     It is that spiritual problem which separates a person from the Lord.

The rings, and nose jewels, Isa 3:21 Extreme carnality manifests with body mutilations.

The changeable suits of apparel, and the mantles, and the wimples, and the crisping pins, Isa 3:22 Material wealth is a weight to the carnal minded.     There is no end to their lust, their need for newer and better adornments to gratify their pride.

The glasses, and the fine linen, and the hoods, and the vails. Isa 3:23 There is much detail in these verses regarding outward displays of materialism.     I suppose this is because of the seductiveness of riches relative to pride.

And it shall come to pass, that instead of sweet smell there shall be stink; and instead of a girdle a rent; and instead of well set hair baldness; and instead of a stomacher a girding of sackcloth; and burning instead of beauty. Isa 3:24 Man was created for the Lord.     It is only in Him that we are sweet and beautiful.     Those who are apart from the Lord are trapped in stench and ugliness.

Thy men shall fall by the sword, and thy mighty in the war. Isa 3:25 The best of fighting men and armaments will not avail when fighting for evil.

And her gates shall lament and mourn; and she being desolate shall sit upon the ground. Isa 3:26 Fortifications will crumble in the Day Of The Lord and those who would fight against Him will be cast down to the ground.
