"EVIL SHALL COME!"

Isaiah 47:10-11                                (ESV)
"10 You felt secure in your wickedness, you said, "No one sees me"; your wisdom and your knowledge led you astray, and you said in your heart, "I am, and there is no one besides me." 
11 But "EVIL SHALL COME" upon you, which you will not know how to charm away; disaster shall fall upon you, for which you will not be able to atone; and ruin shall come upon you suddenly, of which you know nothing."



It has been said by many that the United States cannot be found in end time prophecies, that there is no mention of any nation being of so great in military strength falling to some their country.  But when reading this passage, my mind immediately went to the United States of America and the fact that we have turned our back on GOD and HIS principles!  

Humility, as a nation, isn't something most of us want to experience.  But when GOD's Word so many times points out that "pride comes before destruction" (Proverbs 16:8) and you read the verses above you can't help but wonder if those were meant for the United States?  

"EVIL SHALL COME" might have become the National Motto of the United States?  While IN GOD WE TRUST still is on the currency, there is little mention of serving a HOLY GOD from anyone serving our country in national public office.  Our "wisdom and knowledge" has led us astray and our leaders live as though "I am, and there is no one besides me"!  In less than 300 years we have risen to a military might that has never before been experienced.  

But scripture is warning us that "EVIL SHALL COME"!  Disaster shall fall fall upon us, for which you will not be able to atone!  RUIN SHALL COME UPON YOU, of which you know nothing!  September 11, 2001 may have been a slight precursor of what is to come.  It is not pleasant to see the United States of America in such a negative light, but Galatians 6:7 says "DO NOT BE DECEIVED: GOD IS NOT MOCKED, for whatever one sows, that WILL HE ALSO REAP."  

The United States of America continually ventures further and further into the cesspool of sin.  Pornography, drug abuse, homosexuality, abortion, lying spirits, the list goes on and on!  We feel "secure in our wickedness" and act like nothing will be done about our sinful acts!  But GOD 'STILL' will not be mocked, and "EVIL SHALL COME"!
