ISAIAH 26 COMES TO MIND: THE NATION OF ISAIAH <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n (in bits and snatches, big and smaller installments)<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n 26 In that day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah; We have a strong city; salvation will God appoint for walls and bulwarks.<\/p>\n 2 Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation which keepeth the truth may enter in.<\/p>\n 3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.<\/p>\n 4 Trust ye in the Lord for ever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength:<\/p>\n 5 For he bringeth down them that dwell on high; the lofty city, he layeth it low; he layeth it low, even to the ground; he bringeth it even to the dust.<\/p>\n 6 The foot shall tread it down, even the feet of the poor, and the steps of the needy.<\/p>\n 7 The way of the just is uprightness: thou, most upright, dost weigh the path of the just.<\/p>\n 8 Yea, in the way of thy judgments, O Lord, have we waited for thee; the desire of our soul is to thy name, and to the remembrance of thee.<\/p>\n 9 With my soul have I desired thee in the night; yea, with my spirit within me will I seek thee early: for when thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.<\/p>\n 10 Let favour be shewed to the wicked, yet will he not learn righteousness: in the land of uprightness will he deal unjustly, and will not behold the majesty of the Lord.<\/p>\n 11 Lord, when thy hand is lifted up, they will not see: but they shall see, and be ashamed for their envy at the people; yea, the fire of thine enemies shall devour them.<\/p>\n 12 Lord, thou wilt ordain peace for us: for thou also hast wrought all our works in us.<\/p>\n 13 O Lord our God, other lords beside thee have had dominion over us: but by thee only will we make mention of thy name.<\/p>\n 14 They are dead, they shall not live; they are deceased, they shall not rise: therefore hast thou visited and destroyed them, and made all their memory to perish.<\/p>\n 15 Thou hast increased the nation, O Lord, thou hast increased the nation: thou art glorified: thou hadst removed it far unto all the ends of the earth.<\/p>\n 16 Lord, in trouble have they visited thee, they poured out a prayer when thy chastening was upon them.<\/p>\n 17 Like as a woman with child, that draweth near the time of her delivery, is in pain, and crieth out in her pangs; so have we been in thy sight, O Lord.<\/p>\n 18 We have been with child, we have been in pain, we have as it were brought forth wind; we have not wrought any deliverance in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen.<\/p>\n 19 Thy dead men shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.<\/p>\n 20 Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast.<\/p>\n 21 For, behold, the Lord cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.<\/p>\n (C)2024 Taveau Creative Leadership All copyrights reserved under international copyright laws<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" ISAIAH 26 COMES TO MIND: THE NATION OF ISAIAH (in bits and snatches, big and smaller installments) 26 In that day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah; We have a strong city; salvation will God appoint for walls and bulwarks. 2 Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation which…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2111,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_kadence_starter_templates_imported_post":false,"_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"_kad_post_classname":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2109","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-all"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
