Or Else

Isaiah 27:1-5 (AMPC)

Isaiah 27
1 “IN THAT day [the Lord will deliver Israel from her enemies and also from the rebel powers of evil and darkness] His sharp and unrelenting, great, and strong sword will visit and punish Leviathan the swiftly fleeing serpent, Leviathan the twisting and winding serpent; and He will slay the monster that is in the sea.
2 In that day [it will be said of the redeemed nation of Israel], A vineyard beloved and lovely; sing a responsive song to it and about it!
3 I, the Lord, am its Keeper; I water it every moment; lest anyone harm it, I guard and keep it night and day.
4 Wrath is not in Me. Would that the briers and thorns [the wicked internal foe] were lined up against Me in battle! I would stride in against them; I would burn them up together.
5 Or else [if all Israel would escape being burned up together there is but one alternative], let them take hold of My strength and make complete surrender to My protection, that they may make peace with Me! Yes, let them make peace with Me!”

The Lord is Keeper of me... He has plans to deal with His and my enemy...
Or Else, let me take hold of His Strength, or Else let me be completely surrendered to His protective Word, or Else ...

Will You Really Die

Genesis 3:3-6 (AMPC)
3 “Except the fruit from the tree which is in the middle of the garden. God has said, You shall not eat of it, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.
4 But the serpent said to the woman, You shall not surely die,
5 For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing the difference between good and evil and blessing and calamity.
6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good (suitable, pleasant) for food and that it was delightful to look at, and a tree to be desired in order to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate; and she gave some also to her husband, and he ate.”

Woman, was standing over next to the Tree of Knowledge with her husband... The Serpent was speaking to his wife, not Adam... Adam heard the conversation between Satan and his wife... He was listening and wanted to know also what was in that tree... but, he didn’t want to die... He knew he gave his wife miss information... and Satan also knew what Father God Said; don’t eat it you will die.
Adam knew what physical death was... being a gardener. When his wife ate and didn’t die... he ate to, because the reason he didn’t eat it was he didn’t want to die...

How many of us don’t sin because of fear of dying, and not because God Said It, I Believe It!

People FULL Of Power

Micah 3:6-12 (AMPC)
6 Therefore it shall be night to you, so that you shall have no vision; yes, it shall be dark to you without divination. And the sun shall go down over the false prophets, and the day shall be black over them.
7 And the seers shall be put to shame and the diviners shall blush and be confounded; yes, they shall all cover their lips, for there is no answer from God.
8 But truly I [Micah] am full of power, of the Spirit of the Lord, and of justice and might, to declare to Jacob his transgression and to Israel his sin.
9 Hear this, I pray you, you heads of the house of Jacob and rulers of the house of Israel, who abhor and reject justice and pervert all equity,
10 Who build up Zion with blood and Jerusalem with iniquity.
11 Its heads judge for reward and a bribe and its priests teach for hire and its prophets divine for money; yet they lean on the Lord and say, Is not the Lord among us? No evil can come upon us.
12 Therefore shall Zion on your account beplowed like a field, Jerusalem shall become heaps [of ruins], and the mountain of the house [of the Lord] like a densely wooded height.

Here Micah describes himself as a prophet not in the dark, Are is he clueless.
He does not pad his pockets with ill gotten gain, or judge God’s People with itching ears...
Micah 4:1-6 (AMPC)

Micah 4
1 “BUT IN the latter days it shall come to pass that the mountain of the house of the Lord shall be established as the highest of the mountains; and it shall be exalted above the hills, and peoples shall flow to it.
2 And many nations shall come and say, Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob, that He may teach us His ways, and we may walk in His paths. For the law shall go forth out of Zion and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
3 And He shall judge between many peoples and shall decide for strong nations afar off, and they shall beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
4 But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree, and none shall make them afraid, for the mouth of the Lord of hosts has spoken it.
5 For all the peoples [now] walk every man in the name of his god, but we will walk in the name of the Lord our God forever and ever.
6 In that day, says the Lord, I will assemble the lame, and I will gather those who have been driven away and those whom I have afflicted.”

The Lord told Micah; “I Got This...” I will Judge between many peoples, and make strong dissions for the nations that are far away... I will have them walking In My Name, I will assemble the lame to walk in My ways, and I will gather those who I afflicted.... None will make them afraid...

This is what Micah was told in his day...

What Makes Me Clean, Or Unclean?

Mark 7:13-23 (AMPC)
“13 Thus you are nullifying and making void and of no effect [the authority of] the Word of God through your tradition, which you [in turn] hand on. And many things of this kind you are doing.
14 And He called the people to [Him] again and said to them, Listen to Me, all of you, and understand [what I say].
15 There is not [even] one thing outside a man which by going into him can pollute and defile him; but the things which come out of a man are what defile him and make him unhallowed and unclean.
16 If any man has ears to hear, let him be listening [and let himperceive and comprehend by hearing].
17 And when He had left the crowd and had gone into the house, His disciples began asking Him about the parable.
18 And He said to them, Then are you also unintelligent and dull and without understanding? Do you not discern and see that whatever goes into a man from the outside cannot make him unhallowed or unclean,
19 Since it does not reach and enter his heart but [only his] digestive tract, and so passes on [into the place designed to receive waste]? Thus He was making and declaring all foods [ceremonially] clean [that is,abolishing the ceremonial distinctions of the Levitical Law].
20 And He said, What comes out of a man is what makes a man unclean and renders [him] unhallowed.
21 For from within, [that is] out of the hearts of men, come base and wicked thoughts, sexual immorality, stealing, murder, adultery,
22 Coveting (a greedy desire to have more wealth), dangerous and destructive wickedness, deceit;unrestrained (indecent) conduct; an evil eye (envy), slander (evil speaking, malicious misrepresentation, abusiveness), pride (the sin of an uplifted heart against God and man), foolishness (folly, lack of sense, recklessness, thoughtlessness).
23 All these evil [purposes and desires] come from within, and they make the man unclean and render him unhallowed.”

Jesus was speaking to the teachers of the law here about their letting a person off the hook of helping their parents by saying; “Carbon,” a gift to God has been offered...
Jesus said that they had developed many traditions that nullified the word of God like that....
He also said; it was came out of your mouth that made you unclean and unhallowed in God’s Sight...

Artisans No More In The Day

Revelation 18:22-24 (AMPC)
22 “And the sound of harpists and minstrels and flute players and trumpeters shall never again be heard in you, and no skilled artisan of any craft shall ever again be found in you, and the sound of the millstone shall never again be heard in you.
23 And never again shall the light of a lamp shine in you, and the voice of bridegroom and bride shall never be heard in you again; for your businessmen were the great and prominent men of the earth, and by your magic spells and poisonous charm all nations were led astray (seduced and deluded).
24 And in her was found the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all those who have been slain (slaughtered) on earth.“

Babylon had a final judgment done to her from God in the last of her Day... Jesus told John she would not have anything more in her to buy or sale, to seduce anymore The merchants to come there and there would be weeping over their lost...

Having Righteous Fellowship

1 John 1:7 (AMPC)
7 “But if we [really] are living and walking in the Light, as He [Himself] is in the Light, we have [true, unbroken] fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses (removes) us from all sin and guilt [keeps us cleansed from sin in all its forms and manifestations].“

Talking To Jesus lately, I noticed the direction of the conversation we were having each time,
It was about deception... on the news of the world it is about deception of different political figures in high places. Walking in the light of Truth, keeps all things about you Open, upfront and readable.
The same with Christ, when He teaches you about things it is so to keep you in the light where He Is... “Living With Jesus Is Always Living In The Light.”
