spirit of man within him.

12:2 Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem.

ISAIAH
65:12 Therefore will I number you to the
sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called, ye did not
answer; when I spake, ye did not hear; but did evil before mine eyes, and did choose that wherein I
delighted not.
.
.
66:4 I also will choose their delusions, and
will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake,
they did not hear: but they
did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.

~ The WORD of The LORD ~
Have you thought to touch My Land, the place where My Honor
is to dwell ? O Daughter of Babylon, who
art to be destroyed ?
.
.
Do you think that I do not HEAR your plans worked in secret or
your words hatched in evil ?
.
.
Do I not SEE your meeting chambers, hidden from view , where
you devise to part My Land and My City ?
.
.
Do you think MONEY can buy you control over all the earth ?
.
.
You are not content to control the whole earth with your MONEY,
but you desire the ONE PLACE where I have set My Name on earth.
.
.
.You will not hallow it for My Name’s sake, but you covet it so that YOU can be hallowed instead.
I have seen your UNHOLY desire to be worshipped. I have heard your
plans to set up your UNHOLY temple.
.
.
Woe to YOUR land and YOUR city. As you think to divide My
Land, that very desire will come upon yours. As you think to partition My City, that
very desire will come upon yours.
.
.I spoke to you, but you do not hear. As you will have none of ME, I will have none of you.
Now you will cry to me, but I will not hear.
Woe, woe, woe is determined upon you.
