Woe To Obstinate America!


'Woe to the obstinate children,' declares the Lord,
'To those who carry out plans that are not mine,
Forming an alliance, but not by My Spirit.
Heaping up sin upon sin. (Isaiah 30:1)

These are rebellious people, deceitful children,
Children unwilling to listen to the Lord's instruction.
They say to the seers, 'See not more visions!'
And to the prophets, 'Give us no more visions of what is right!
Tell us pleasant things, prophesy illusions.
Leave this way, get off this path,
And stop confronting us with the Holy One of Israel!'

Therefore, this is what the Holy One of Israel says:
'Because you have rejected this message relied on oppression
And depended on deceit, this sin will become for you like a high wall,
Cracked and bulging, that collapses suddenly, in an instant,
It will break in pieces like pottery, shattered so mercilessly
That among its pieces not a fragment will be found
For taking coals from a hearth or scooping water out of a cistern.'

This is what the Sovereign Lord, the Holy One of Israel, says:
'In repentance and rest is your salvation,
In quietness and trust is your strength, but you would have none of it.
(Isaiah 30:9-15)

Yet the Lord longs to be gracious to you; He rises to show you compassion.
For the Lord is a God of justice.
Blessed are all who wait for him! (Isaiah 30:18)

Today, the Sovereign Lord, the Holy One of Israel, The Almighty,
Speaks to America, a nation He gave birth to, and every other nation.
Today, God Almighty, the God of Noah's day,
The God of the day of Sodom and Gomorrah, is the God of justice.

God's people have spoken to this nation since it's birth.
God has poured out His Spirit upon this nation in every generation.
Yet, His words have fallen upon deaf ears, they have been rejected.
America hates to be confronted with the words of the Holy One of Israel.
The godless have their own visions of what is right!
They insist upon pursuing their own illusions.
They are too “modern” to be annoyed by the God of an ancient Bible.

So America continues to depend upon deceit;
Today, America's sin is a high wall, cracked and bulging;
It will soon collapse suddenly, in an instant.
It will break into pieces like pottery, shattering so mercilessly
That among its pieces not a fragment will be found
For taking coals form a hearth or scooping water out of a cistern.

In an instant America, the so called, “greatest nation on earth”
Will be brought to nothing! Her godless leaders brought to nothing!
And all the nations of earth will be brought to the same end,
Because in their godlessness, they have made themselves worthless,
Less than nothing, before the Holy One of Israel.
They have all rejected God and His Christ, Jesus,
The only God sent Savior of a fallen, wicked world.

Listen you nations, the God of Creation has spoken;
His Word is an open book; look inside and see what will befall you.
Soon, every one of your knees will bow
And every one of your tongues confess that Jesus Christ is Lord!
God Almighty, the Amen! Has spoken, and it cannot be reversed!

As God has spoken, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!
