Isaiah 5:20- Woe to those who call evil good and good evil; who exchange darkness for light and light for darkness; who exchange bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! 21 Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and cleaver or smart in their own sight!
The one who chooses evil over good, bitterness over sweetness will experience the painful consequences of their choices and the one who chooses "God' s truth and sweetness" will experience His good pleasure.
The people of Judah, who were in exile, to whom Isaiah is preaching, have rebelled against God and refused to get right with Him. They rejected truth and accepted a lie as truth.
"WOE" to the people and nations that calls evil actions good, those who exchange light for dark and those who exchange sweet for bitter. Those who are wise in their own eyes, those whose finite minds are puffed up with a a high opinion of their own wisdom and despise the counsel and instructions of God.
Are we at this place in America in our relationship with God? "WOE" to us if we are.
The time to come back to Jesus is now! We are being called to no longer live in a state of a hardened heart and willful sin and rebellion against God.
America, no more living according to what is right in our own eyes for now is the time to live our lives according to God's truth that is written in His Word.
America, God is calling us back to Him and His way of life and living.
It is my heart's prayer that we as a nation will accept God's truth on today for scripture declares that if we do not, "WOE UNTO US"!
God bless.
