THE DAY OF YEHOVAH

Part 4 continues..

The Day of Yehovah does not only apply to the judgment of Israel but also to the following pending or far away events.

The future judgment of Yisra’el

“See. The day of Yehovah is coming, fierce, with wrath and heat of displeasure, to lay the earth waste, and destroy its sinners from it. 10 For the stars of the shamayim (Heaven) and their constellations do not give off their light. The sun shall be dark at the rising, and the moon not send out its light. 11 And I shall punish the world for its evil, and the wicked for their wickedness, and shall put an end to the arrogance of the proud, and lay low the pride of the ruthless. 12 I shall make mortal man scarcer than fine gold, and mankind than the gold of Ophir.  13 So I shall make the shamayim tremble, and the earth shall shake from her place, in the wrath of Yehovah  of hosts and in the day of the heat of His displeasure. 14 And it shall be as the hunted gazelle, and as a sheep that no man takes up-every  man turns to his own people, and everyone flees to his own land. 15 Whoever is found is thrust through, and everyone taken falls by the sword.” -Yeshayahu/Isaiah 13 9-15

What I copied is only a portion, of course. You may want to read  the whole chapter for it is eye awakening indeed! We are going to be facing terrible times and we must prepare.

  “For the day of Yehovah is near upon all the gentiles. As you have done, it shall be done to you, your reward shall come back on your own head.”-Obadyah/Obadiah 15

I am very concerned about the Gentiles who have in the past and even now coming against the Chosen People. They are accusing them now that those returned to Yisra’el are not even Jews because they are Europeans. Of course, they came from Europe and Africa, but they are returning Jews that Yehovah fort told in the Scriptures.  I will only mention a few now for you to realize that Yehovah never meant for Yisra’el to be forgotten.

  “And it shall be, when all these words come upon you, the berakhah and the curse which I have put before you, and you shall bring them back to your heart among all the gentiles where Yehovah your Elohim drives you, 2 and shall turn back to Yehovah  your Elohim  and obey His voice, according to all that I command you today, with all your heart and with all your being, you and your children, 3 then Yehovah your Elohim shall turn back your captivity, and shall have compassion on you, and He shall turn back and gather you from all the peoples where Yehovah your Elohim has scattered you. 4 If any of you are driven out to the farthest parts under the shamayim, from there Yehovah your Elohim gathers you, and from there He takes you. 5 And Yehovah your Elohim shall bring you to the land which you fathers possessed , and you shall possess it. ‘And He shall do good to you, and increase you more than your fathers.”-Devarim/Deuteronomy 30:1-5.

There are many scriptures, and if you are a student of the Word you will find them all over in the Prophets. I may write another message concerning this subject later on.

Future judgment on Israel for not keeping the Covenant as they were invaded by  Assyria and Babylon and they were  taken into captivity (Yeshayahu /Isaiah 3:1-18-4:1; Amos 5:18-20).

Yeshayahu/Isaiah 13:19 spoke of the destruction of Babylon and the Medes and it  was  fulfilled in 539BC.

Let us  now read about the deliverance and blessing of Israel  and the Nations in that day

“And it shall be in that day that Yehovah puts His hand again a second time to recover the remnant of His people who are left, from Ashshur and from Mitsrayim, from Pathros and from Kush, from Eylam and from Shin’ar, from Chamath and from the islands of the sea. 12 and He shall raise a banner for the nations, and gather the outcasts of Yisra’el, and assemble the dispersed of Yahudah from the four corners of the earth.”Yeshayahu/Isaiah 11:10-12

Yoel/Joel 3 describes how Yehovah will bring the  Gentiles to the valley of Yahoshaphat because they have divided the Land of Israel and not respected His people. You must read this whole chapter. 

In the past, a fulfillment of that day is the destruction of the Temple 586BC which was described in the book of Lamentations.

“Young and old lie on the ground in the streets. My maidens and my young men  have fallen by the sword. You have slain them in the day of Your displeasure, You have slaughtered without compassion.” -Eykhah/Lamentations 2:21

 In a way we have seen the fulfillment in the past of the Day of Yehovah, as He has brought the Jewish people twice back from captivity to their own home land.

Now we are expecting the Great Day of Yehoshua’s Return.

 “ I was looking in the night visions and saw One like the Ben of Enosh, coming with the clouds of the shamayim! (Heaven!) and he came to the Ancient of Days, and they brought Him near before Him. 14 and to Him was given rulership and esteem and a reign, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve Him. His rule is an everlasting rule which shall not pass away, and His reign that which shall not be destroyed.”  -Dani’el 7:13

”And then the sign of the Ben of Adam shall appear in the shamayim, and then all the tribes of the earth shall mourn, and they shall see the Ben of Adam coming on the clouds of the shamayim with power and much esteem. 31 And he shall send His messengers (angels) with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together His chosen ones from the four winds, from one end of the shamayim to the other.”- Mattithyahu/Matthew 24:30-31

 I will continue on my next message. But I need to exhort once again do not delay to surrender your life, past, present, and future into the life of Yehoshua or Yeshua which is the short form of His all powerful Name.

If you do not know Him personally, you can simply call upon His Name and He will reveal Himself to you. Your future is in your own hands.

Shalom
