“AS ISRAEL WERE, SO ARE YOU DIFFERENT”

Post date: Oct 20, 2017 3:47:07 AM

The nation and children of Israel were to be different and to show the difference between their God and the gods of other nations around them and around the world. They were to be peculiar in the sights of Go and men in all Nations, they were to be envied and respected, and they were to show forth the power, the goodness and the mercies and the faithfulness of their God to other nations through consistent actions and a consistent lifestyle that reflects their God. They were to show forth the splendor of God’s Holiness and beauty, and when they embrace the lifestyle of the gods that did not make or call them, things changed but hope is not lost, the Almighty God will still implement His plans and His desires for them through the acceptance of Christ Jesus as their Lord and only Savior. There is hope for you now and for your future that God had destined only for you to fulfill. Right from the very moment God spoke to Abraham, he was made a different person and all his family; Isaac was different from other children of Abraham and all his slaves; Isaac’s business was different and his ground and cattle’s were different; Jacob was different and his children were different; Joseph was different even in the prison; Jabez was different every with deformities that angered his parents. Noah and Lot were different even though they lived and were surrounded by unrighteous people; Daniel was different even though he was judged wrongly and sentenced to death; David was different even though Saul wanted him dead; Sarah and Hanna and Elizabeth were different even though the suffered barrenness. Everyone who is born again has the Spirit of the living God dwelling in them and that Spirit makes them different from the gods and children of the gods of the world. Irrespective of what the gods of the people are saying and using their agents o do against you in this life, you are different and will remain so because of your God who is the Almighty God. The end of their gods is coming fast and their grip and activities against you and the ones that are on you will soon end, our God is powerful to do what He had desired and designed for you; He is true and active and willing to accomplish all that He had started in our lives and He will not miss any of His plans for your life.

Their works against you will not stand because you do not do what they do. “You, Lord, have abandoned your people, the descendants of Jacob. They are full of superstitions from the East; they practice divination like the Philistines and embrace pagan customs. Their land is full of silver and gold; there is no end to their treasures. Their land is full of horses; there is no end to their chariots. Their land is full of idols; they bow down to the work of their hands, to what their fingers have made. So people will be brought low and everyone humbled, do not forgive them. Go into the rocks; hide in the ground from the fearful presence of the Lord and the splendor of his majesty. The eyes of the arrogant will be humbled and human pride brought low; the Lord alone will be exalted in that day. The Lord Almighty has a day in store for all the proud and lofty, for all that is exalted and they will be humbled, for all the cedars of Lebanon, tall and lofty, and all the oaks of Bashan, for all the towering mountains and all the high hills, for every lofty tower and every fortified wall, for every trading ship and every stately vessel. The arrogance of man will be brought low and human pride humbled; the Lord alone will be exalted in that day, and the idols will totally disappear. People will flee to caves in the rocks and to holes in the ground from the fearful presence of the Lord and the splendor of his majesty when he rises to shake the earth. In that day people will throw away to the moles and bats their idols of silver and idols of gold, which they made to worship. They will flee to caverns in the rocks and to the overhanging crags from the fearful presence of the Lord and the splendor of his majesty when he rises to shake the earth. Stop trusting in mere humans, who have but a breath in their nostrils. Why hold them in esteem? Isaiah 2:5-22. It is time for our God to rise and show Himself in you with power and signs and wonders.
