April 12, 2018- Thursday-#672- Daily Morning Bible Reading and Meditation-Isaiah 14 KJV
*** 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! ***
[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.
[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:
Words to ponder for today:
Fallen From Heaven
Fallen:
: to drop oneself to a lower position, in degree or level
: to stumble, stray, fell into error
: to commit an immoral act but man willfully misused his God-given freedom and fell into sin
He is Lucifer. The most beautiful and well favored angel. The chief musician of all angels intended to sing and give glory to GOD. But because of his pride and his intensified, self-seeking exaltation, that he wanted to be like the most High GOD, he was fallen from heaven. He was casted out from among GOD’s angelic hosts with the one third of the angels who followed him.He was fallen from heaven.
That means he was casted away from heavenly Host, and that he is down here to the ground.
His ambition failed. However his destructive plan succeed. He influenced a good number of angels to follow him; but had not satisfied. He became GOD’s enemy, that he confounded the first man to disobey GOD; causing mankind to fall short of the glory of GOD. Lucifer is the cause of mankind’s weaknesses. He is the angel fallen from heaven, that enticed many souls, to bring with him to that place of torment, the bottomless pit, called hell.
GOD’s wrath falls upon Satan; even to them who are proud and haughty in heart, bewilderedly exalting themselves to be like the Most High God.
The blinded sinful souls who believed the wiles of the devil, ignorantly followed him and believed Satan’s lies; as he have created many religion who speaks and preach about GOD, but it’s purpose is to deceive many. So that he and his angels will not be the only one who in their time, goes down to that dreadful place of hell.
Families, friends, and foes, GOD is true and sure, even as Lucifer the fallen angel exIsts and are here ruling this world; the bible said so.
Some do not believe the existence of GOD. They even mocked Him for creating Lucifer and his angels. This is the pernicious ways of GOD’s enemy: to sow disbelief into human’s mind and heart. But whether mankind believe it or not, there are spiritual battle going on. The bible speaks that heaven and hell do exist, and surely it is; there are always opposites contending even in the very heart and mind of every souls . The prophecy that was spoken have came to passed already. And it was destructively grievous, that GOD has to sent His Only Begotten Son JESUS CHRIST, poured out His precious blood on that cross for the atonement of sins. Them who believe for GOD’s sacrifice are won to be with The LORD in Heaven. Them who refuse GOD’s offered salvation and follow the devil’s cunning craftiness and devices are destined to go with Lucifer in Hell, the place of unending agony and pain. Spiritual things such as heaven and hell are comparable to the air that we breath. The pure and clean air aids better health, but if the air got polluted, it destroys our physical body. The same way our spiritual beings are nourished and secured when we take in Christ by believing in His Words; GOD’s breathed Bible. But spiritually assailed if refused to listen to Christ’s leading, but believed the lies of Satan.
.
Let alone Lucifer and his angels, even the unbelieving fallen from heaven. The devils work double time to take as many simple and willfully ignorant souls as they can with them to hell.
Let the searching souls be saved; for GOD had already given His Only Son JESUS CHRIST for an ensign of salvation.
Them who received and believed are securely adopted as GOD’s beloved children as what was written by Apostle Paul:
Romans 8:1-2,6-8 KJV
[1] There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
[2] For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
[6] For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
[7] Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
[8] So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
[9] But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
[10] And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
Spiritual battle is in the mind. Each one has given life with both will and understanding; to choose who should win. Hence determined the destination one chooses to be in.
Believing GOD or Unbelieving.
Jesus Christ or Lucifer.
Heaven or Hell.
The choice is yours today.
Be saved.
Take with you The Words of Jesus Christ.
Have a blissful day today!
Isaiah 14:1-32 KJV
[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. [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. [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. [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? [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.
