Judgment For America?

 

Judgment For America?

Deuteronomy 32:1-43 TLV (emphasis mine)

 

A song of Moses!

“Give ear O Heavens, and I will speak! Let the earth hear the words of my mouth. May my teaching trickle like rain, my speech like dew – like gentle rain on new grass, like showers on tender plants.

For I will proclaim The Name of The LORD, ascribe Greatness to our GOD! The Rock – blameless in His Work. Indeed, all His Ways are Just. GOD of Faithfulness without iniquity, Righteous and Upright is He.

Did it corrupt Him? No! The blemish is His Children’s – a generation crooked and twisted.

Is this how you pay back The LORD, O foolish, unwise people? Isn’t He your Father Who Ransomed you? He made you and established you.

Remember the days of antiquity, understand the years across generations. Ask your father and he will tell you, your elders and they will say to you. When The Most High gave nations their heritage, when He separated the sons of man, He set boundaries for the people by the number of the Children of Israel.

But The LORD’s portion is His People – Jacob (America) is the share of His inheritance. He found him in the wilderness land, in the void of a howling waist. He surrounded him, cared for him, guarded him as the pupil of His eye. As an eagle stirs up its nest, hovers over its young, He spreads His wings, catches him, lifts him up on His pinions. The LORD alone guided him – there was no foreign god with him.

He made him mount the heights of the land, so he ate the produce of the field. He suckled him with honey from a rock, with oil from a flinty boulder. Butter of cattle and milk of a flock, with fat of lambs, rams of the Bashan and he-goats, with fat of the kidneys, of wheat, and blood of grapes you drank.

But Israel (America) grew fat and kicked – you got fat, you grew thick, you gorged! He forsook GOD Who made him. He mocked the Rock of his Salvation. They made Him jealous with strangers, with abominations they angered Him. They sacrificed to demons, a non-god, gods they had not known – to new ones who came in lately, ones your fathers had not dreaded. The Rock Who birthed you, you ignored. You forgot GOD Who brought you forth.

The LORD saw and He spurned His Sons and His Daughters out of vexation. He said, ‘I will hide My face from them, I want to see their hereafter. For they are an upside down generation, Children with no faithfulness in them. They made Me jealous with a non-god. They vexed Me with airy idols. So I will make them jealous with a non-people. With a foolish nation I will vex them. For fire has ignited My nostrils – it will burn to Hell beneath, devour the earth and her produce, and scorch the foundations of mountains. I will heap calamities upon them. With My Arrows I will finish them. Wasted by famine, ravaged by plague and pestilence so bitter, fangs of beasts I’ll let loosen them, with venom of creepers in the dust. Outside the sword deals death, and inside terror – to both young men and young women, infants, with men of gray hair. I would have said, “I will hack them to pieces, make the memory of them cease from mankind,” except I dread the taught of the enemy, lest their foes might construe – least they say, “Our hand is held high, and The LORD has not done all this.” For they are a nation lacking counsel, among them there is no understanding.’

If they were wise they would discern this, they would understand their hereafter. How can one chase a thousand and two put ten thousand to flight, unless their Rock had sold them and The LORD had handed them over? Surely their rock is not like our Rock, as even our enemies judge. For their vine is from the vine of Sodom and from the terraces of Gomorrah. Its grapes are grapes of poison – bitter clusters on it. Venom of serpents is their wine – poison of vipers so cruel.

Is it not stored up with ME, sealed up in My Treasuries? Vengeance is Mine and Payback, for the time when their foot stagers. Surely their day of disaster is near – what is prepared rushes on them. For The LORD will Judge His People – for His Servants He will relent when He sees that strength is gone and no one is left, slave or free. He will say, ‘Where are their gods, the “rock” they took refuge in? Who ate the fat of their sacrifices and drank the wine of their libation?’Let them rise up and help you and be a shelter over you! See now that I, I AM He! There are no other gods beside Me. I bring death and give Life, I have wounded but I will Heal, and none can rescue from My hand.

Yes, I lift My hand up to Heaven and I say, ‘As I Myself Live Forever, when I sharpen My Lightning Sword and My hand seizes it in Judgment, I will return vengeance on My foes, and those who hate Me I will Payback. I will make My Arrows drunk from blood, and My Sword will devour flesh – the blood of the slain and the captive, the head of the leaders of the enemy.’

Make His People rejoice O nations, for He will avenge the blood of His Servants. He will return vengeance on His foes, and Atone for the Land of His People.”

 

America, like Israel has strayed from our foundation of JESUS CHRIST, we have rejected GOD and removed Him from every aspect of our lives. And, like Israel we are suffering the pains of GOD’s Judgment. The call of GOD is clear to America and Israel: “If I shut up heaven so there is no rain, or if I command the locust to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among My People, when My People, over whom My Name is called, humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their evil ways, then I will hear from Heaven and will Forgive their sin and will Heal their Land.” 2 Chronicles 7:13-14
