TALK, TALK TALK AND MORE TALK

Today we have Incessant Talk.
Faction against Faction.
Ideology against Ideology.
Religion against Religion.
Tribe against Tribe.
Nation against Nation.

IGNORED in all this Talk, is the God of Creation and His Word.
And in the End He and His Word is ALL that Matters.
All the Talk of mankind will have been for Nothing.
Listen to God's Point of View:

A Voice says, 'Cry out.'
And I [Isaiah] said, 'What shall I Cry?'

'ALL men are like grass,
And all their glory like the flowers of the field.
The grass withers and the flowers fall,
Because the breath of the Lord Blows on them.
Surely the People are grass.

The grass withers and the flowers fall,
But the Word of our God Stand Forever.'

You who bring Good Tidings to Zion,
Go up on a High Mountain.
You who bring Good Tidings to Jerusalem,
LIFT UP YOUR VOICE WITH A SHOUT,
Lift it up, do not be Afraid;
Say to the towns of Judah [America]
'HERE IS YOUR GOD!'

SEE, the Sovereign Lord comes with Power,
And His Arm Rules for Him.

SEE, His Reward is with Him,
And His Recompense accompanies Him.

He tends his Flock like a Shepherd:
He Gathers the Lambs in His Arms
And Carries them Close to His Heart;
He Gently Leads those that have young.

Who has measured the waters in the hollow of His hand,
Or with the breadth of His Hand marked off the Heavens?

Who has held the dust of the Earth in a Basket,
Or weighed the Mountains on the Scales
And the Hills in a Balance?

Who has Understood the Spirit of the Lord,
Or Instructed Him as His Counselor?

Whom did the Lord Consult to Enlighten Him,
And who Taught Him the Right Way?
Who was it that Taught Him knowledge
Or showed Him the Path of Understanding?

SURELY THE NATIONS ARE LIKE A DROP IN A BUCKET;
They are regarded as Dust on the Scales;
He weighs the Islands as though they were fine dust.
Lebanon is not sufficient for Altar Fires,
Nor it animals enough for burnt offerings.

BEFORE HIM ALL THE NATIONS ARE AS NOTHING;
They are regarded by Him as Worthless
AND LESS THAN NOTHING.

TO WHOM, THEN, WILL YOU COMPARE GOD?
What Image will you compare Him to?
As for an Idol, a craftsman cast it,
And a goldsmith overlays it with gold
And fashions silver chains for it.

A man too poor to present such an offering
Selects wood that will not rot.
He looks for a skilled craftsman to set up and Idol
That will not topple.

DO YOU NOT KNOW?
Have you not heard?
Has it not been told you from the Beginning?
Have you not Understood since the Earth was Founded?

HE SITS ENTHRONED ABOVE THE CIRCLE OF THE EARTH,
And its People are like Grasshoppers.

He stretches out the Heavens like a Canopy,
and spreads them out like a Tent to live in.

HE BRINGS PRINCES TO NAUGHT
And Reduces the Rulers of this World to NOTHING.

No sooner are they Planted, No sooner are they Sown,
No sooner do they Take Root in the ground,
THAN HE BLOWS ON THEM AND THEY WITHER,
And a Whirlwind Sweeps them Away like Chaff.

'TO WHOM WILL YOU COMPARE ME?
OR WHO IS MY EQUAL?'
Says the Holy One.

Lift up your eyes and look to the Heavens:
WHO CREATED ALL THESE?

He who brings out the Starry Host one by one,
And calls them each by name.

BECAUSE OF HIS GREAT POWER AND MIGHTY STRENGTH,
Not one is Missing.

Why do you say, O Jacob [America],
and Complain , O Israel [America],
'My way is Hidden from the Lord;
My Cause is Disregarded by my God'?

HAVE YOU NOT HEARD?
The Lord is the Everlasting God,
THE CREATOR OF THE ENDS OF THE EARTH.

He will not grow tired or weary,
And His Understanding No One can Fathom.

HE GIVES STRENGTH TO THE WEARY
And Increases the Power of the Weak.

Even the youths grow Tired and Weary,
And young men Stumble and Fall;

BUT THOSE WHO HOPE IN THE LORD
Will Renew their strength.
THEY WILL SOAR LIKE EAGLES;
They will Run and not grow Weary,
They will Walk and not be Faint.
(Isaiah 40:6-31)

Christ Jesus warned us:
Be always on the Watch,
And pray that you will be able to Escape All that is about to happen,
And that you may be able TO STAND before the Son of Man.
(Luke 21:36)

Today, the World is Raging Against God, Rushing toward Oblivion. (Psalm 2)
This World in it's present form is passing away. (1 Corinthians 7:31)
America is being ground to powder because of her SIN against God.
Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation! (Acts 2:40)
As God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!
Father, Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as in Heaven!
