Isaiah 13
A Prophecy Against Babylon
1 (Isa 1:1; 14:28) The burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz saw.
2 (Isa 5:26; Jer 50:2) Lift up a banner on the high mountain,
exalt the voice to them, shake the hand,
that they may go into the gates of the nobles.
3 (Joel 3:11; Ps 149:2) I have commanded My sanctified ones,
I have also called My mighty ones for My anger,
even those who rejoice in My exaltation.
4 (Joel 3:14 )The noise of a multitude in the mountains,
like as of a great people!
A tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered together!
The Lord of Hosts musters the army for battle.
5 They come from a far country, from the end of heaven,
the Lord and the weapons of His indignation, to destroy the whole land.
6 (Joel 1:15; Zep 1:7) Wail, for the day of the Lord is at hand!
It shall come as destruction from the Almighty.
7 (Eze 21:7; Isa 19:1) Therefore all hands shall be faint,
and every man's heart shall melt,
8 (Isa 26:17; Na 2:10) and they shall be afraid.
Pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them;
they shall be in pain as a woman who travails;
they shall be amazed one at another;
their faces shall be as flames.
9 (Ps 104:35) See, the day of the Lord comes, cruel,
both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate,
and He shall destroy its sinners out of it.
10 (Mt 24:29; Mk 13:24) For the stars of heaven and their constellations
shall not give their light; the sun shall be dark when it rises,
and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.
11 (Isa 2:17; Da 5:22-23) I will punish the world for its evil,
and the wicked for their iniquity;
and I will cause the arrogance of the proud to cease,
and will lay low the haughtiness of the ruthless.
12 (Isa 4:1; 24:6) I will make a man more rare than fine gold,
and mankind than the golden wedge of Ophir.
13 (La 1:12) Therefore, I will shake the heavens,
and the earth shall be shaken out of her place
at the wrath of the Lord of Hosts and in the day of His fierce anger.
14 (1Ki 22:17; Jer 50:16) It shall be as the chased roe,
and as a sheep that no man takes up; every man shall turn to his own people
and flee every one into his own land.
15 Every one who is found shall be thrust through,
and every one who is joined to them shall fall by the sword.
16 (Na 3:10; Ps 137:8-9) Their children also shall be dashed
to pieces before their eyes;
their houses shall be devastated and their wives ravished.
17 (Pr 6:34-35; Jer 51:11) See, I will stir up the Medes against them,
who shall not regard silver;
and as for gold, they shall not delight in it.
18 (2Ki 8:12; 2Ch 36:17) Their bows also shall dash the young men to pieces,
and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb;
their eye shall not spare children.
19 (Ge 19:24; Da 4:30) Babylon, the glory of kingdoms,
the beauty of the Chaldean's excellency, shall be as when God overthrew
Sodom and Gomorrah.
20 (Isa 14:23; Jer 51:43) It shall never be inhabited,
nor shall it be lived in from generation to generation,
nor shall the Arabian pitch a tent there,
nor shall the shepherds make their fold there.
21 (Rev 18:2; Isa 34:11-15) But wild beasts of the desert
shall lie down there,
and their houses shall be full of owls,
ostriches also shall dwell there,
and shaggy goats shall dance there.
22 (Isa 25:2; 35:7) The wild beasts of the islands shall cry
in their desolate houses
and jackals in their pleasant palaces.
And her time is near to come,
and her days shall not be prolonged.

[1] The burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz did see.
[2] Lift ye up a banner upon the high mountain, exalt the voice unto them,
shake the hand, that they may go into the gates of the nobles.
[3] I have commanded my sanctified ones, I have also called my mighty ones
for mine anger, even them that rejoice in my highness.
[4] The noise of a multitude in the mountains, like as of a great people; a
tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered together: the LORD of
hosts mustereth the host of the battle.
[5] They come from a far country, from the end of heaven, even the LORD, and
the weapons of his indignation, to destroy the whole land.
[6] Howl ye; for the day of the LORD is at hand; it shall come as a
destruction from the Almighty.
[7] Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man's heart shall melt:
[8] And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them;
they shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one
at another; their faces shall be as flames.
[9] Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce
anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof
out of it.
[10] For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give
their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon
shall not cause her light to shine.
[11] And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their
iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay
low the haughtiness of the terrible.
[12] I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the
golden wedge of Ophir.
[13] Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of
her place, in the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce
anger.
[14] And it shall be as the chased roe, and as a sheep that no man taketh
up: they shall every man turn to his own people, and flee every one into his
own land.
[15] Every one that is found shall be thrust through; and every one that is
joined unto them shall fall by the sword.
[16] Their children also shall be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their
houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished.
[17] Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, which shall not regard
silver; and as for gold, they shall not delight in it.
[18] Their bows also shall dash the young men to pieces; and they shall have
no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eye shall not spare children.
[19] And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldees'
excellency, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.
[20] It shall never be inhabited, neither shall it be dwelt in from
generation to generation: neither shall the Arabian pitch tent there;
neither shall the shepherds make their fold there.
[21] But wild beasts of the desert shall lie there; and their houses shall
be full of doleful creatures; and owls shall dwell there, and satyrs shall
dance there.
[22] And the wild beasts of the islands shall cry in their desolate houses,
and dragons in their pleasant palaces: and her time is near to come, and her
days shall not be prolonged.

Isaiah 14

The Restoration of Judah

1 (Ps 102:13; Zec 1:17) For the Lord will have mercy on Jacob,
and will yet choose Israel,
and set them in their own land.
Then the strangers shall be joined with them,
and they shall cleave to the house of Jacob.
2 (Isa 61:5; 60:14) The people shall take them
and bring them to their place,
and the house of Israel shall possess them
in the land of the Lord for servants and handmaids;
and they shall take them captive, whose captives they were,
and they shall rule over their oppressors.


[1] For the LORD will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel, and
set them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined with them, and
they shall cleave to the house of Jacob.
[2] And the people shall take them, and bring them to their place: and the
house of Israel shall possess them in the land of the LORD for servants and
handmaids: and they shall take them captives, whose captives they were; and
they shall rule over their oppressors.

The Fall of Babylon's King

3 (Ezr 9:8-9; Jer 30:10) In the day the Lord gives you rest from your sorrow,
and from your fear, and from the hard bondage in which you were made to serve,
4 (Isa 49:26; Rev 18:16) you shall take up this proverb
against the king of Babylon, and say:
How has the oppressor ceased!
The golden city ceased!
5 (Ps 125:3; Isa 9:4) The Lord has broken the staff of the wicked,
and the scepter of the rulers;
6 he who struck the people in wrath with unceasing strokes,
he who ruled the nations in anger, is persecuted, and no one hinders.
7 (Ps 126:1-3; 98:7-9 )The whole earth is at rest and is quiet;
they break forth into singing.
8 (Eze 31:16) Indeed, the fir trees rejoice at you,
and the cedars of Lebanon, saying,
"Since you are laid down,
no tree cutter has come up against us."
9 Hell from beneath is moved for you
to meet you at your coming;
it stirs up the dead for you,
even all the chief ones of the earth;
it has raised up from their thrones
all the kings of the nations.
10 They all shall speak
and say to you:
"Have you also become as weak as we have?
Have you become like us?"
11 Your pomp is brought down to Hell,
and the noise of your harps;
maggots are spread under you,
and the worms cover you.
12 (Lk 10:18; 2Pe 1:19) How are you fallen from heaven,
O Lucifer, son of the morning!
How you are cut down to the ground,
you who weaken the nations!
13 (Eze 28:2) For you have said in your heart,
"I will ascend into heaven,
I will exalt my throne
above the stars of God;
I will sit also on the mount of the congregation,
in the recesses of the north;
14 (Isa 47:8; 2Th 2:4) I will ascend above the heights of the clouds,
I will be like the Most High."
15 (Mt 11:23; Eze 32:23) Yet you shall be brought down to Hell,
to the sides of the pit.

[3] And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give thee rest
from thy sorrow, and from thy fear, and from the hard bondage wherein thou
wast made to serve,
[4] That thou shalt take up this proverb against the king of Babylon, and
say, How hath the oppressor ceased! the golden city ceased!
[5] The LORD hath broken the staff of the wicked, and the sceptre of the
rulers.
[6] He who smote the people in wrath with a continual stroke, he that ruled
the nations in anger, is persecuted, and none hindereth.
[7] The whole earth is at rest, and is quiet: they break forth into singing.
[8] Yea, the fir trees rejoice at thee, and the cedars of Lebanon, saying,
Since thou art laid down, no feller is come up against us.
[9] Hell from beneath is moved for thee to meet thee at thy coming: it
stirreth up the dead for thee, even all the chief ones of the earth; it hath
raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations.
[10] All they shall speak and say unto thee, Art thou also become weak as
we? art thou become like unto us?
[11] Thy pomp is brought down to the grave, and the noise of thy viols: the
worm is spread under thee, and the worms cover thee.
[12] How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art
thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
[13] For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will
exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of
the congregation, in the sides of the north:
[14] I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most
High.
[15] Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.

Please note:

Luke 10

The Return of the Seventy

17Mk 16:17; Lk 10:1The seventy returned with joy, saying,
"Lord, even the demons are subject to us through Your name."
18 (Rev 9:1; Isa 14:12) He said to them, "I saw Satan as lightning
fall from heaven.
19 (Mk 16:18; Ps 91:13) Look, I give you authority to trample
on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy.
And nothing shall by any means hurt you.
20 (Ex 32:32; Ps 69:28) Nevertheless do not rejoice that the spirits
are subject to you, but rather rejoice that your names are written in heaven."

Also note from Isa 14:12 - there is a satanic and erroroneous reference
in Is 14:12 to morning star. Why do I say that?

Revelation 22:16 MEV
16 "I, Jesus, have sent My angel to you with this testimony for the churches.
I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star."

Satan is never the Morning star!

}

16 (Jer 50:23) Those who see you shall stare at you
and ponder over you:
"Is this the man who made the earth
to tremble and shook kingdoms,
17 (Joel 2:3; Isa 45:13) who made the world as a wilderness
and destroyed its cities,
who did not open the house of his prisoners?"
18 All the kings of the nations, even all of them, lie in glory,
each one in his own tomb;
19 (Jer 41:7; 41:9) but you are cast out of your grave
like an abominable branch
and clothed with those who are slain,
thrust through with a sword,
who go down to the stones of the pit
as a corpse trodden underfoot.
20 (Job 18:19; Ps 21:10) You shall not be joined with them in burial
because you have destroyed your land
and slain your people.
The seed of evildoers
shall never be renowned.
21 (Ex 20:5; Lev 26:39) Prepare a place of slaughter for his children
for the iniquity of their fathers;
they must not rise nor possess the land,
nor fill the face of the world with cities.
22 (1Ki 14:10; Pr 10:7) For I will rise up against them,
says the Lord of Hosts,
and cut off from Babylon the name, and remnant,
and son, and nephew,
says the Lord.
23 (Zep 2:14; 1Ki 14:10) I will also make it a possession for the hedgehog
and pools of water,
and I will sweep it with the broom of destruction,
says the Lord of Hosts.

[16] They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee,
saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake
kingdoms;
[17] That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof;
that opened not the house of his prisoners?
[18] All the kings of the nations, even all of them, lie in glory, every one
in his own house.
[19] But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch, and as
the raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go
down to the stones of the pit; as a carcase trodden under feet.
[20] Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou hast
destroyed thy land, and slain thy people: the seed of evildoers shall never
be renowned.
[21] Prepare slaughter for his children for the iniquity of their fathers;
that they do not rise, nor possess the land, nor fill the face of the world
with cities.
[22] For I will rise up against them, saith the LORD of hosts, and cut off
from Babylon the name, and remnant, and son, and nephew, saith the LORD.
[23] I will also make it a possession for the bittern, and pools of water:
and I will sweep it with the besom of destruction, saith the LORD of hosts.

{Also note the Babylonian religion was based on the Mother-son

Of which one article
https://amazingdiscoveries.org/S-deception_paganism_Catholic_Nimrod_Mary

The pagan system of sun worship had three main aspects: the father, mother,
and the son. In ancient Chaldean times, these were the god Bel or Merodach,
Ninus the son who was also worshiped as Tammuz, and the female goddess
Rhea who was also worshiped as Ishtar[Oestre,Easter], Astarte, or Beltis.
She was also referred to as the "queen of heaven," and the "wrath subduer."
Mary has received these same names in Catholicism.
A statue of Mary and Jesus at Westminster Abbey.
Notice the globe Jesus is holding.

Mother and child worship was the basis of the ancient religions.
In the various religions of the world, the same system of worship
was perpetuated under different names.
In Egypt , the mother and child were worshiped as Isis and Osiris or Horus,
in India as Isi and Iswara,
in China and Japan as the mother goddess Shing-moo with child,
in Greece as Ceres or Irene and Plutus,
in Rome as Fortuna and Jupitor-puer, or Venus and Adurnis,
and in Scandinavia as Frigga and Balder.
The mother and child were worshiped in Babylon as Ishtar[Oestre,Easter]
and Tammuz, and in Phoenicia, as Ashtoreth and Baal. Moreover,
the child was worshiped as both husband and son of the mother goddess.
The male component is a counterfeit of Jesus Christ. The Biblical names
used for Jesus were also used for the child in ancient religions.
Zoroaster was referred to as the seed, Mithra the Persian
sun god was referred to as the Saviour, Dionysus as the sin-bearer,
Bacchus as the branch, Vishna as the victim-man,
and Osiris as the king of kings.

The Legend of Nimrod

The system of worship has its origin in the legend of Nimrod
and his wife Semiramus. Nimrod (the great-grandson of Noah)
rebelled against God, like his father Cush.
Eventually Nimrod was put to death for his evil deeds,
and according to the ancient patriarchal system,
parts of his body were sent to various cities as a warning.

His wife Semiramus fled, but spread the rumour
that he had ascended to heaven, where he had become one with the sun.
When Semiramus later gave birth to a son, she claimed that it was
the reincarnation of her deified husband,
and that he had returned to save the human race.

She was later deified as the mother of the sun god,
and it was supposed she had ascended into heaven
as the queen of heaven. In the various cultures throughout history
and around the world, the same basic deities have been
worshipped under different names.

An Oracle Concerning Assyria

24 (Ac 4:28; Job 23:13) The Lord of Hosts has sworn, saying:
Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass,
and as I have purposed, so shall it stand:
25 (Isa 9:4; Na 1:13) that I will break the Assyrian in My land,
and on My mountains tread him under foot.
Then shall his yoke depart from off them
and his burden depart from off their shoulders.
26 This is the purpose that is purposed on the whole earth,
and this is the hand that is stretched out on all the nations.
27 (2Ch 20:6; Isa 43:13) For the Lord of Hosts has purposed,
and who shall disannul it?
And His hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back?

[24] The LORD of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so
shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand:
[25] That I will break the Assyrian in my land, and upon my mountains tread
him under foot: then shall his yoke depart from off them, and his burden
depart from off their shoulders.
[26] This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth: and this is
the hand that is stretched out upon all the nations.
[27] For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? and his
hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back?

An Oracle Concerning Philistia

28 (2Ki 16:20; 2Ch 28:27) In the year that King Ahaz died was this oracle:
29 (2Ch 26:6; Isa 11:8) Rejoice not, O Philistia, all of you,
because the rod that struck you is broken;
for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a viper,
and his fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent.
30 (Isa 7:21-22) The firstborn of the poor shall feed,
and the needy shall lie down in safety:
and I will kill your root with famine,
and he shall slay your remnant.
31 (Jer 1:14; Isa 13:6) Wail, O gate. Cry, O city.
Melt away, O Philistia, all of you;
for smoke shall come from the north,
and there is no straggler in his ranks.
32 (Ps 87:5; 87:1) What shall one then answer
the messengers of the nation?
That the Lord has founded Zion,
and the poor of His people shall trust in it.

[28] In the year that king Ahaz died was this burden.
[29] Rejoice not thou, whole Palestina, because the rod of him that smote
thee is broken: for out of the serpent's root shall come forth a cockatrice,
and his fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent.
[30] And the firstborn of the poor shall feed, and the needy shall lie down
in safety: and I will kill thy root with famine, and he shall slay thy
remnant.
[31] Howl, O gate; cry, O city; thou, whole Palestina, art dissolved: for
there shall come from the north a smoke, and none shall be alone in his
appointed times.
[32] What shall one then answer the messengers of the nation? That the LORD
hath founded Zion, and the poor of his people shall trust in it.

Isaiah 15

A Prophecy Against Moab

Jer 48:29-36

1 (Nu 21:28; Isa 11:14) The oracle of Moab.
Surely in the night Ar of Moab is laid waste
and brought to silence,
surely in the night Kir of Moab is laid waste
and brought to silence,
2 (Lev 21:5; Jer 48:1) he has gone up to the temple and to Dibon,
the high places, to weep.
Moab shall wail over Nebo and over Medeba;
on all their heads shall be baldness,
and every beard cut off.
3 (Jnh 3:6-8) In their streets they shall clothe themselves with sackcloth;
on the tops of their houses and in their streets,
everyone shall wail,
weeping abundantly.
4 (Jer 48:34) Heshbon shall cry, and Elealeh;
their voice shall be heard even to Jahaz;
therefore the armed soldiers of Moab shall cry out;
his life shall be grievous to him.
5 (Jer 48:5; 4:20) My heart shall cry out for Moab;
his fugitives shall flee to Zoar,
like a three-year-old heifer.
For by the Ascent of Luhith
they shall go up with weeping;
for in the way of Horonaim
they shall raise up a cry of destruction,
6 (Nu 32:36; Joel 1:10-12) for the waters of Nimrim shall be desolate;
surely the grass is withered away;
the grass fails,
there is no green thing.
7 (Jer 48:36) Therefore the abundance they have gained, and that
which they have laid up,
they shall carry away to the Brook of the Willows.
8 For the cry has gone all around the borders of Moab;
its wailing to Eglaim,
and its wailing to Beer Elim.
9 (2Ki 17:25) For the waters of Dimon shall be full of blood;
for I will bring more woes on Dimon,
lions on the fugitives of Moab,
and on the remnant of the land.

[1] The burden of Moab. Because in the night Ar of Moab is laid waste, and
brought to silence; because in the night Kir of Moab is laid waste, and
brought to silence;
[2] He is gone up to Bajith, and to Dibon, the high places, to weep: Moab
shall howl over Nebo, and over Medeba: on all their heads shall be baldness,
and every beard cut off.
[3] In their streets they shall gird themselves with sackcloth: on the tops
of their houses, and in their streets, every one shall howl, weeping
abundantly.
[4] And Heshbon shall cry, and Elealeh: their voice shall be heard even unto
Jahaz: therefore the armed soldiers of Moab shall cry out; his life shall be
grievous unto him.
[5] My heart shall cry out for Moab; his fugitives shall flee unto Zoar, an
heifer of three years old: for by the mounting up of Luhith with weeping
shall they go it up; for in the way of Horonaim they shall raise up a cry of
destruction.
[6] For the waters of Nimrim shall be desolate: for the hay is withered
away, the grass faileth, there is no green thing.
[7] Therefore the abundance they have gotten, and that which they have laid
up, shall they carry away to the brook of the willows.
[8] For the cry is gone round about the borders of Moab; the howling thereof
unto Eglaim, and the howling thereof unto Beer-elim.
[9] For the waters of Dimon shall be full of blood: for I will bring more
upon Dimon, lions upon him that escapeth of Moab, and upon the remnant of
the land.

Isaiah 17

An Oracle Concerning Damascus

1 (Zec 9:1; Ge 14:15) The oracle of Damascus.
See, Damascus will cease from being a city;
it shall be a ruinous heap.
2 (Eze 25:5; Nu 32:34) The cities of Aroer are forsaken;
they shall be for flocks, which shall lie down,
and no one shall make them afraid.
3 (Isa 7:16; 8:4) The fortress also shall cease from Ephraim,
and the kingdom from Damascus,
and the remnant of Aram;
they shall be as the glory of the sons of Israel,
says the Lord of Hosts.
4 (Isa 10:16) In that day the glory of Jacob shall decrease,
and the fatness of his flesh shall grow lean.
5 (2Sa 5:18; Jer 51:33) It shall be as when the harvestman gathers the corn
and reaps the ears with his arm,
and it shall be as he who gathers ears
in the Valley of Rephaim.
6 (Isa 24:13; Dt 4:27) Yet gleaning grapes shall be left in it,
as the shaking of an olive tree,
two or three berries in the top of the uppermost bough,
four or five in its outmost fruitful branches,
says the Lord God of Israel.
7 (Mic 7:7; Hos 3:5) On that day a man shall look to his Maker,
and his eyes shall have respect for the Holy One of Israel.
8 (Isa 27:9; 30:22) He shall not look to the altars,
the work of his hands,
nor shall he respect what his fingers have made,
either the groves or the images.
9 (Isa 27:10) In that day his strong cities shall be as a forsaken bough
and an uppermost branch, which they left because of the sons of Israel;
and there shall be a desolation.
10 (Dt 32:4; Isa 12:2) Because you have forgotten the God of your salvation
and have not been mindful of the rock of your strength,
therefore you plant pleasant plants
and set them with vine slips of a strange god;
11 (Job 4:8; Hos 8:7) in the day that you plant it, you carefully fence it in,
and in the morning you make your seed to flourish;
but the harvest shall be a heap of ruins
in the day of grief and desperate pain.
12 (Ps 18:4; Jer 6:23) Woe to the multitude of many people
who make a noise like the noise of the seas,
and the rushing of many peoples
who make a rumble like the rumbling of mighty waters!
13 (Ps 9:5; Job 21:18) The nations rumble like the rumbling of many waters;
but God shall rebuke them, and they shall flee far off,
and shall be chased as the chaff of the mountains before the wind,
and like rolling dust before the whirlwind.
14 (2Ki 19:35) At evening time, sudden terror!
And before the morning, they are no more.
This is the portion of those who plunder us,
and the lot of those who rob us.

[1] The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a
city, and it shall be a ruinous heap.
[2] The cities of Aroer are forsaken: they shall be for flocks, which shall
lie down, and none shall make them afraid.
[3] The fortress also shall cease from Ephraim, and the kingdom from
Damascus, and the remnant of Syria: they shall be as the glory of the
children of Israel, saith the LORD of hosts.
[4] And in that day it shall come to pass, that the glory of Jacob shall be
made thin, and the fatness of his flesh shall wax lean.
[5] And it shall be as when the harvestman gathereth the corn, and reapeth
the ears with his arm; and it shall be as he that gathereth ears in the
valley of Rephaim.
[6] Yet gleaning grapes shall be left in it, as the shaking of an olive
tree, two or three berries in the top of the uppermost bough, four or five
in the outmost fruitful branches thereof, saith the LORD God of Israel.
[7] At that day shall a man look to his Maker, and his eyes shall have
respect to the Holy One of Israel.
[8] And he shall not look to the altars, the work of his hands, neither
shall respect that which his fingers have made, either the groves, or the
images.
[9] In that day shall his strong cities be as a forsaken bough, and an
uppermost branch, which they left because of the children of Israel: and
there shall be desolation.
[10] Because thou hast forgotten the God of thy salvation, and hast not
been
mindful of the rock of thy strength, therefore shalt thou plant pleasant
plants, and shalt set it with strange slips:
[11] In the day shalt thou make thy plant to grow, and in the morning shalt
thou make thy seed to flourish: but the harvest shall be a heap in the day
of grief and of desperate sorrow.
[12] Woe to the multitude of many people, which make a noise like the noise
of the seas; and to the rushing of nations, that make a rushing like the
rushing of mighty waters!
[13] The nations shall rush like the rushing of many waters: but God shall
rebuke them, and they shall flee far off, and shall be chased as the chaff
of the mountains before the wind, and like a rolling thing before the
whirlwind.
[14] And behold at eveningtide trouble; and before the morning he is not.
This is the portion of them that spoil us, and the lot of them that rob us.

{This prophecy will be fulfilled soon, Under the Presidency of Assad
of Syria, this will total see off Damascus and Syria overall}

By John Blase

John 3:16-21

16 (Ro 5:8; 1Jn 4:9-10; Jn 1-18) "For God so loved the world
that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him
should not perish, but have eternal life.
17 (1Jn 4:14; Lk 19:10) For God did not send His Son into the world
to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
18 (Jn 5:24; Mk 16:16) He who believes in Him is not condemned.
But he who does not believe is condemned already,
because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
19 (Jn 1:4; 8:12) This is the verdict, that light has come into the world,
and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
20 For everyone who does evil hates the light and does not
come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed.
21 (1Jn 1:6; Ps 139:23-24) But he who does the truth comes to the light,
that it may be revealed that his deeds have been done in God." 

[16] For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that
whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
[17] For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that
the world through him might be saved.
[18] He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is
condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only
begotten Son of God.
[19] And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and
men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
[20] For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the
light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
[21] But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be
made manifest, that they are wrought in God. 

Daniel was born into a Romanian orphanage. For seven years, he only left his 
crib to go to the bathroom. When he turned eight, a family from another 
country adopted him. They knew about attachment disorders - that Daniel could 
have difficulty attaching to them as his parents. Slowly, Daniel started to 
trust them. Over time, though, he began to rage to the point his parents hired
a bodyguard to protect them from Daniel's outbursts. They decided on a 
controversial therapy: For the next five years they were never away from 
Daniel even if he had a meltdown. On his thirteenth birthday Daniel broke down
and, for the first time, told his parents he loved them very much. His mother 
summarised the experience: "Creating love is not for the soft and sentimental.
Love is a battlefield."

We're all born knowing that something or someone is missing. Like Daniel, we 
have an attachment disorder. But God "so loved the world" so much that he took
drastic action - "he gave his one and only Son" (John 3:16), meeting us on 
earth's battlefield in what we call the Incarnation. 
"Light is come into the world" (v. 19).

God took drastic measures to demonstrate His great love for the world. For 
you. His strong, determined Father-heart beats to hear from us the words 
Daniel's parents finally heard: "I love you very much."

Reflect & Pray

How have you felt that something or someone is missing? 
How can you respond to God's drastic love for you?

Dear heavenly Father, I love You very much. 
Thank You for loving me first.

3) Daily verses taken from Billy Graham Evangelical Organisation

Words in Season Scripture Memory Tools

Week 4 - The Blessings of Grace Day 2 - Alienation and Reconciliation

Col 1:21-22

21 (Eph 2:12) And you, who were formerly alienated
and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now He has reconciled
22 (Ro 7:4; Eph 5:27) in the body of His flesh through death,
to present you holy and blameless and above reproach in His sight,

21 And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind
by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled
22 in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy
and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight

Some 50 years ago, Orson Welles's radio broadcast of The War of the Worlds
threw the nation into panic; people on the East Coast ran for their lives,
expecting at any moment to be destroyed by alien invaders from outer space.
Today, of course, we are more sophisticated about such matters.
Television and movies have educated us about alien life forms.
Star Wars and Star Trek have taught us that their appearance can be much
different than ours. Sometimes they are unable to exist in our atmosphere
with artificial life-support systems; their physical makeup is often
incompatible with our environment.
God says that we, apart from Christ, are as incompatible with his kingdom
as the 'aliens' of movies are with Earth's environment.
We are at war with God, a true "war of the worlds" that staggers
the imagination.
Yet God has 'reconciled' us to his world. He has made us fit,
made us able to exist in his kingdom. He has made us part of
his world through Christ's death and resurrection.
Now, through Christ, we are 'holy' and 'without blemish' in God's sight.
And that transformation, ironically, make us 'alien' in the world around us.
No longer do we fit in a world of selfishness and greed, a world where Self
is god and everyone does what is right in his own heart.
We belong, instead, in the kingdom of God's righteousness.

Application

a) In what ways am I an 'alien' in this world?

b) How have I been an 'alien' to God's kingdom?

c) How can today's verses help me deal with my sense of 'not fitting'?
to Jesus? 

4) Prosperity verses from Kenneth Copeland

Deut 28:11

11 (Dt 28:4; 30:9) The Lord will make you overflow in prosperity,
in the offspring of your body, in the offspring of your livestock,
and in the produce of your ground, in the land which the Lord swore
to your fathers to give you.

11 And the LORD shall make thee plenteous in goods, in the fruit of thy body,
and in the fruit of thy cattle, and in the fruit of thy ground, in the land
which the LORD sware unto thy fathers to give thee.

5) From a Book called God's Promises for you:

When you are lonely

1 John 4:16b-18

God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him.
17 (1Jn 2:5; 2:28) In this way God's love is perfected in us,
so that we may have boldness on the Day of Judgment, because as He is,
so are we in this world.
18 (Ro 8:15; 2Ti 1:7) There is no fear in love,
but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has to do with punishment.
Whoever fears is not perfect in love.

God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness
in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.
18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear:
because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.

Remember God's promises when You pray

The Lord's prayer 

Matthew 6:9-13

9 "Therefore pray in this manner:
Our Father who is in heaven,
hallowed be Your name.
10 (Mt 3:2; 4:17) Your kingdom come;
Your will be done
on earth, as it is in heaven.
11 (Pr 30:8; Isa 33:16) Give us this day our daily bread.
12 (Ex 34:7; Ps 32:1) And forgive us our debts,
as we forgive our debtors.
13 (1Co 10:13; Jn 17:15) And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen."

9 After this manner therefore pray ye: 
Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 
10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. 
11 Give us this day our daily bread. 
12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 
13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: 
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

6) This come from Praying for Muslims in Canada 2015 (Is there a 2026 edition?)

 Where do Muslims live?

Canada is a land of immigrants. And Muslims are coming in increasing numbers
to our shores. Where do they live? How can we pray for these areas?
Use this as your more effectively for Muslims in Canada.

Data for those population figures is extrapolated for the 2011 National
Household Survey and population growth projections by Pew Forum. These have
also been adjusted by +40% as reliable sources state that on 60% of Muslims
self-identify on government surveys and forms. These estimates are still on
the conservative end of the spectrum. Percentages represent that of the total
Canadian population, not provincial

BC - 136493 - 7.5%
AB - 195240 - 11%
SK - 17279 - 1%
MB - 21349 - 1.2%
ON - 1001542 - 55%
QC - 418946 - 23%

30 days of prayer for the Muslim World 24 April to 23 May 2020 

Under the Keep Praying page

When the new moon is sighted it marks the beginning of t he new Islamic month
and Eid al-Fitr, the "Festival of Breaking the Fast", will start! After 30 days
of fasting, the Eid  celebration at the end of Ramadan is a joyful time that 
usually lasts about 3 days. Muslims will buy new clothes, exchange gifts and,
of course, enjoy special foods. In Muslim-majority nations, the streets may be
decorated and festivals will be held.

For many Muslims, Eid-al-Fitr begins with communal prayers at daybreak and the
distribution of money (zakat) to the poor, which is one of the 5 pillars of
Islam.

You can greet Muslim friends during this time by saying "Eid Mubarak",
which means Blessed Eid!"

Ramadan is over for this year, but you can continue to pray for Muslims you 
know, and Muslims around the world:

- Despite the unsettling developments in our world today that involve actions
in the name of Islam, there is at the same time a largely untold story about
unprecedented movement to Christ among Muslims. There have been more such
movements of thousands or more new disciples among Muslims in the last three
decades or so than in all the previous history of Christian Muslim
relationships! Pray for this momentum to continue.
Acts 2:12-17 :  17 "In the last days it shall be," says God,
"that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; 
your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, 
your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams.
18 Even on My menservants and maidservants 
I will pour out My Spirit in those days; and they shall prophesy. 
19 And I will show wonders in heaven above and signs on the earth below: 
blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke.  20 The sun shall be turned into darkness,
and the moon into blood, before that great and glorious day of the Lord comes.
21 And whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved."[a]

Footnotes
	Acts 2:21 Joel 2:28-32.
- Pray for Christian workers an organisations focused on seeing effective
discipleship movements among Muslim people.
- Ask the Holy Spirit to continue to inspire you to have god's heart for
Muslims, to see them as He does, and to be the light that then to Jesus.
Matthew 5:14-15  : 14 "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a
hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do men light a candle and put it under 
a basket, but on a candlestick. And it gives light to all who are in the 
house."

Ideas for prayer

- Pray for opportunities to show the love of Christ to Muslims around you
- Pray for, and offer generous hospitality to, those you know who are serving
Christ among Muslim people - 
Romans 12:13 "contribute to the needs of the saints, practice hospitality."
- When you gather with fellow believers, remember to pray for Muslims 
throughout the year and encourage them to also participate in 30 Days! 

And 

Thank you for praying through the
5 Days of Prayer for Sikhs.

"My name is Kam. I'm 29 years of age, and I grew up Sikh. As a teenager, 
I struggled with depression, brokenness, and addiction to
cannabis. I didn't know how to stop or how to get help.

Then a friend invited me to church. As I spent time with Christians 
and heard the message of the Gospel, I experienced the
love of Jesus Christ, and it was like nothing I'd known before. 
One night I had a dream where I saw Him - a figure surrounded by
light who I knew was Jesus, the light of the world.

As I began to understand the gospel message, I encountered a reassuring and
confident solution to the problem of sin. I knew that I needed a solution 
to my sin problem, and I gave my life to Christ.

Slowly, God began to heal my broken heart and my addiction. 
Nine years have passed, and I am a devoted husband and a father
to two beautiful boys. I grow deeper in love with Jesus each day.

I ask you to continue praying with me, and others around the world, for Sikhs.
God is the only one who can draw people to Himself. He works in and through 
the prayers of His people. I want Sikhs to know the freedom 
and healing that is only available through Jesus Christ."

13 (Ro 14:17; 12:12) Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy 
and peace in believing, so that you may abound in hope, 
through the power of the Holy Spirit.

[13] Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that
ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost. 

ROMANS 15:13

My paternal side is of Muslim heritage and will offer this section to further
call for Muslim converts to Christian and any other converts to Christianity
(Hindus, Jews, aboriginals Canadian, ...) .
