The Burden of Egypt

3/29/2013

 
Where are they? where are thy wise men? and let them tell thee now, and let them know what the LORD of Hosts hath purposed upon Egypt. The princes of Zoan are become fools, the princes of Noph are deceived; they have also seduced Egypt, even they that are the stay of the tribes thereof. The LORD hath mingled a perverse spirit in the midst thereof: and they have caused Egypt to err in every work thereof, as a drunken man staggereth in his vomit. (Isaiah 19:12-14)

GOD has proclaimed a judgment on the nation of Egypt.  Not only is Egypt a type of 'the world', but it has never gained a prominent position as a world power since they were judged during the Exodus.  GOD judged their false religion, their oppressive economic system, and their tyrannical government and they have never, nor will they ever be the same.  GOD says He sets up kings and kingdoms and tears them down.  It is foolish men that attempt to restore without GOD what GOD has already torn down. 

This holds true for America as well.  While the Church will remain until GOD takes her home, the countries she is in will come and go as GOD has ordained.  When we look at Scripture, America as a nation is not prominent, in fact it may not even be present.  For some, that is unthinkable, but for those of us who are of the Church (and America is not the only country) it does not matter for GOD is faithful, and will provide and care for His own even in the midst of political and economic upheaval.  Until we are taken out of the way, we are to be salt and light in this dark and sinful world.  We are to be a source of healing, expose the darkness for what it is, and through our actions and the Word of GOD cause people to be thirsty for the Salvation that GOD has provided through His Son, Jesus Christ and the Cross of Calvary.

The lost are not so, for they have never received the Spirit of GOD and been born again.  You are still at war with GOD and GOD calls you to surrender to Him on His terms.  Jesus Christ has already paid for the sIns of the whole world, and He offers you the gift of redemption.  He is not willing that any should perish, and calls you to repent, turn from your sIn, and turn to GOD.  Trust His Word, and believe He is GOD and will do everything He says He will do.

If you are a child of the King, trust Him to take care of you no matter what is going on around you, and be obedient to His Word that others might see and want to know Jesus.

In Christ,
Jefferson Sweet
