Isa 26: 8-11.

 

Excerpt:None other than the beacon of Protestant Christianity, or Seventh-day Adventism, the seat of the rod to which David referred, I say none others have begun this upward climb to rejoice in in the raised hand of the Lord.We sing, Oh little town of Bethlehem; we garner this from Mic five. Maturation shows that it is not a song about a small village: it is a prophetic theme to show the final valor of Judaism, through Jesse. It was the Lord’s promise that —above all other Jews— Bethlehem Ephrata, a man who was small in comparison to their cumulative numbers, would win the Lord’s majesty: He calls Jesse “little among the thousands of Judah”. But Christ speaks of his descendant after 100 generations; yet, we ignored a missing stanza of that Christmas carol: It describes another personality: she which travaileth to bring forth. Correcting that oversight, I echo her, Zion’s acclaimed mission from another Bible prophecy: Isa 26: 8 Yea, in the way of thy judgments, O LORD, have we waited for thee, the desire of our soul is to thy name… 9 With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early… Pause to absorb the word, “early”. It is a key word worthy of reiteration: It is akin to the prophecy of Ps 110, when David is pointed to the womb of the morning, … Also pause to reflect, the desire of our soul through the night: it was our pregnancy and our travail to bring forth, repeating), Yea, in the way of thy judgments, O LORD, have we waited for thee, the desire of our soul is to thy name and to the remembrance of thee. 9 With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.” Logging of textual chronology requires a pause: In a time called “early” or morning, the world first learns righteousness. It proves to be a synonym of the verb, to see: synonym, another 5th grade, language lesson! For the world then to have a teacher, he who orchestrates learning, is therefore an accommodation of the judgment. Is it not joyous, now to learn judgment and be taught of God’s salvation? Thereby, we can easily deem that God’s judgment has alluded all. The curriculum of His divine syllabus was scheduled only now for release. Thus, only today in this time called early, are we to be taught about God. Yet, more is to be said of this morning glory; so I repeat … “Yea, in the way of thy judgments, O LORD, have we waited for thee, the desire of our soul is to thy name and to the remembrance of thee 9 With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness 10 Let favour be shewed to the wicked, yet will he not learn righteousness: in the land of uprightness will he deal unjustly, and will not behold the majesty of the LORD. 11 LORD, when thy hand is lifted up, they will not see: but they shall see, and be ashamed for their envy at the people; yea, the fire of thine enemies shall devour them.” —Isa 26: 8-11. So powerful is this our theme Text that we, like a clean-cud-chewing beast, can anticipate a regurgitation to begin our next chew, but before then, let it loudly resonate: The wicked in the so-called land of uprightness will not see what the entire world will behold. When David, the Lord’s hand is to be uplifted; the wicked in America will refuse to learn righteousness. To see means to grasp the message or to perceive. Obviously then, this judgment is a divine verdict against America. Only thusly could the men of the earth see/perceive it. And speaking of regurgitation, this refers to America’s judgment as explained by her unholy re-digestion of her own re-installed villany, the confederacy. The world shall see God’s punishment on her as revealed by David’s Rod. But the wicked run to the rocks to hide their faces with denial…
