Wanting the Lord God to Not Hold His Peace |
Isaiah 64:1-12 The Book of Isaiah [in Smaller Chunks] |
Oh, that you [would rip] [open] the heavens, [so] that You [would] come down, [so] that the mountains might flow down at Your presence. [Psalm 144:5 Bow Your heavens [down,] O Lord, & come down. Touch the mountains & they shall smoke.] |
[Like] when the melting fire [burns.] [2 Peter 3:10 But the Day of the Lord will come [like] a thief in the night. In which, the heavens shall pass away with a [loud] noise, & the elements shall melt with fervent heat, & the earth also, & the [things made] that are [in there,] shall be burned up.] |
The fire [causes] the waters to boil, to make Your Name known to Your [enemies, so] that the nations may tremble at Your presence! When you did [terribly] [awesome] things, [that] we [didn’t] look] for, You [came] down, & the mountains flowed down at your presence. |
[Exodus 19:17-18 And Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet with God. And they stood at the [lowest] part of the [mountain.] And Mount Sinai, [a.k.a. Mount Horeb,] was [totally smoking,] because the Lord [came down] upon it in fire. An [its] smoke [went up like] the smoke of a furnace, & the whole [mountain] quaked greatly.] |
For O God, since the beginning of the world, men haven't heard, nor [have their] [ears become aware,] & neither [have] [their] [eyes] seen [any god] [besides] You, & what He [has] prepared for him, [who waits] for Him. [John 14:1-6 [Don't] let your heart be troubled. You believe in God, also believe in Me. In My Father's house are many mansions, [a.k.a. dwellings.] If it weren't so, I would've told you. I go to prepare a place for you. I will come again, & receive you to Myself; [so] that where I Am, you may be there also. And you know [where] I go, & you know the way. Thomas [said] to Him, Lord, we [don't] know [where] You [go.] And how can we know the way? Jesus [said] to [Thomas,] I Am: the Way, the Truth, & the Life. No man [comes] to the Father, [except] by Me.] |
You [meet, a.k.a. greet,] him, [who rejoices,] & [works, a.k.a. accomplishes,] [what is:] [righteous,] & those [who] remember You, & Your ways. [Look,] You [are angry;] for we have sinned, & we shall be saved [by] those, [who] [continue,] [to do Your work.] [2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack, [a.k.a. slow, related] to His promise, [like] some men [consider] slackness; but is [patient to us,] not [wanting] that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.] |
We are all [like] an unclean thing, & all our righteousness, [is like] filthy rags. And we all fade [like] a leaf, & our [sins] have taken us away like the wind. And there [are] none, [who calls] upon Your Name, that [stirs] himself up to [embrace] You, for You [have hidden] Your face from us, & [have] consumed us, because of our [sinfulness.] [Isaiah 54:7-8 For a [little] moment, I have [abandoned] you. But I will gather you with great mercies. I hid My face from you for a moment, in a little [anger,] but I will have mercy on you, with everlasting kindness, [says] the Lord your Redeemer.] |
But now, O Lord, You [are] our Father, & we are the clay. And You [are] our potter, & we are all the work of Your hand. [Don't] be very [furious,] O Lord. Neither remember [our] [sins] forever. We [beg] You, [Look,] & see, we are all Your people. Zion is a wilderness, & Your holy cities, & Jerusalem [is] a desolation. |
Our beautiful, holy house, [a.k.a. temple,] where our [forefathers] praised You, is burned up with fire. And all our pleasant things are laid [to] waste. [2 Kings 25:8-11 And in the 5th month, [on] the 7th day day of the month, which is the 19th year of king Nebuchadnezzar, [Babylon's] king, Nebuar Adan, captain of the guard, came [all the way] to Jerusalem. And he burnt the [Lord's] house, & the king's house, & all the houses of Jerusalem, & every great man's house, he burnt with fire. |
And all the army of the [Chaldean's, who] were with the captain of the guard, [broke] down [Jerusalem's] walls [all around.] Now, the rest of the people, [who] were left in the city, & the fugitives, [who defected] to the king of Babylon, with the [rest] of the multitude, Nebuzar Adan, the captain of the guard, [carried] away.] |
O Lord, [will] You: [withdraw] Yourself, & hold Your peace [about] these things, & [severely] afflict us? [Psalm 83:1-4 O God, don't You keep [silent.] Don't [withhold] Your peace. And [don't] be still, O God. For, [look,] Your enemies make a [riot,] & [those, who] hate You, have lifted up [their] [heads.] They have taken [deceitful advice] against Your people, & consulted against Your hidden ones. They have said, Come, & let's cut them off from being a nation, [so] that the name of Israel, may no [longer] be [remembered.] |
And I heard, but [didn't understand.] Then, I said, O my Lord, What shall be the end of these things? And He said, Go [on] your way, Daniel: for the Words are closed up and sealed till the time of the End. Daniel 12:8-9 KJV
About the Author of the Blogsite, Not the Author of the Bible:
About the Author of the Blogsite, Not the Author of the Bible: Since the Lord had it on my heart to write this blog, I was uncertain of how to accomplish this, mindful of Revelation 22:18-19, which says that nobody is to add to, or to take away from what was written in the Bible. After lots of prayerful contemplation, the Lord had it on my heart that I’m not to change the meaning of what is written in the Bible. He has also shown ways to add to people’s understating of that meaning, without altering the meaning, by putting that info within [brackets]. This is primarily accomplished with the KJV Bible and lots of prayers, but at times, BibleGateway.com, Biblehub.com, NIV Bible, Webster Dictionary, and other internet resources, as needed.

About Understanding the Bible:
Understanding the Bible: After reading Isaiah 28:10 many times over the years and not totally understanding it, it recently became apparent to me that the Lord God has this passage as the means for understanding the Bible.
For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little. Isaiah 28:10 KJV.
Being prayerful about this passage, and looking up 'precept' in the Webster's Dictionary, it gave this passage a whole new meaning, once 'commandment' is substituted for 'precept'. Within brackets are additional words the Lord had on my heart to aid in understanding the meaning.
For commandment must be [built up] upon commandment; commandment upon commandment; line upon line, line upon line; [developing understanding] here a little, and there a little.
The Table Format:
The Table Format: I was overwhelmed with how to explain the process for determining if someone had leprosy in Leviticus 13, which seemed very complicated. After praying, "Lord, if this is difficult for me to understand after reading it many times, how can this be explained to others?" The thought the Lord God had on my heart was for me to put it into a vertical chart to visually see the process. This made it much easier for me to follow the progression. After doing so, I prayed, "Lord, how can this be conveyed to readers, so that they can understand this process?" The thought the Lord God had on my heart was to put it within the lines of a table. Being a stiff-necked, stubborn person, as it's often called in the Bible, I prayed, asking the Lord God if He's sure that's really what He wanted me to do? I reluctantly put Leviticus 13 into a table format. When I read this difficult leprosy process within a table format, it suddenly became easier for me to understand. That's because it builds line upon line, as explained in the Understanding the Bible section. Shortly after that, the Lord God had it on my heart, to put all of The Books of the Bible in Smaller Chunks within a table format, to aid in understanding, line upon line.
