The LORD is a Warrior Isaiah 31

4 quick applications from Isaiah 31.
1) Do not trust man (a fool does this), trust the Victorious Lord (a wise man does this).
2)Even if a nation is strong, they are not the Almighty...trust the LORD, not America or any threatening nation.
3)The LORD is a warrior - no, He is THE warrior, the Protector of His people. vs. 4-9
4)The only form of salvation from the Almighty God of wrath is to turn to the Almighty God. vs. 6
"Turn to Him" ..."This was to show God's righteousness, because in His divine forbearance He had passed over former sins. It was to show His righteousness at the present time, so that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus." Romans 3:25b-26

"and yet he is wise"...who trusts in anything or anyone other than the LORD.
i have to go now, and wipe up the puddle from the dripping irony of Isaiah.
