When my precocious five year old granddaughter, Rebecca, heard #Woe, Woe, Woe from her grandfather’s sermon, she wanted to hear that again. That was many moons ago, so this is for you babe! God’s Word straight from Isaiah speaks to us today as well as yesteryear.
“THE LORD STANDS UP TO PLEAD AND TO JUDGE THE PEOPLE” Is.3:13
“WOE to them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!” Is.5:20
“WOE to them that decree unrighteous decrees and write grievousness which they have prescribed” Is.10:1
“WOE unto them which declare innocent the wicked for bribes, and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him:” Is.5:23
“WOE to the rebellious children, said the LORD, that take cousel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin.” Is.30:1
“The wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt. There is no peace, said my GOD, to the wicked.” Is.57:20,21
With each passing day, I see these words come alive with every newscast, but do not despair – God made a way for us, if we choose Him over our prideful ways.
“GOD is my SALVATION, I WILL TRUST, and NOT BE AFRAID; for the LORD JEHOVAH is MY STRENGTH and MY SONG; He also is MY SALVATION.” Is.12:2
