Isaiah 2:1-4 AMPC
The word which Isaiah son of Amoz saw [revealed] concerning Judah and Jerusalem. [2] It shall come to pass in the latter days that the mountain of the Lord's house shall be [firmly] established as the highest of the mountains and shall be exalted above the hills, and all nations shall flow to it. [3] And many people shall come and say, Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob, that He may teach us His ways and that we may walk in His paths. For out of Zion shall go forth the law and instruction, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. [4] And He shall judge between the nations and shall decide [disputes] for many peoples; and they shall beat their swords into ploughshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
Micah 4:1-3 AMPC
But in the latter days it shall come to pass that the mountain of the house of the Lord shall be established as the highest of the mountains; and it shall be exalted above the hills, and peoples shall flow to it. [2] And many nations shall come and say, Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob, that He may teach us His ways, and we may walk in His paths. For the law shall go forth out of Zion and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. [3] And He shall judge between many peoples and shall decide for strong nations afar off, and they shall beat their swords into ploughshares and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
Almost word for word the prophets Isaiah and Micah foretell what's up ahead in the future.
Isaiah started slightly before Micah (who both lived around 700 BC).
Cynics will say that Micah copied Isaiah, but believers will know that the Holy Spirit is emphasising the reality of the future by reiterating it!
A matter is decided by 2 witnesses!
In the midst of today's darkness, we can look up ahead to the coming Kingdom of Jesus.
Friends, it's glorious.
Time to be full of hope in your hearts.
Just imagine all the nations of the world using their resources to produce food and shelter instead of expending billions on creating weapons of destruction.
Just imagine Jesus deciding disputes with perfect fairness and teaching us how to walk in His Ways!
No more boring sermons, Jesus' Words of pure light and life will guide us forever, face to face.
Sounds like a utopian dream? Yes, because it's so far away from what we see happening today.
More and more sophisticated weaponry is being designed to blow each other to bits!
But Jesus WILL draw a line and return to rule and reign.
The World Economic Forum makes a prediction about 2030 - you will own nothing and be happy:
This is the reverse of Bible prophecy:
Micah 4:4 AMPC
But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree, and none shall make them afraid, for the mouth of the Lord of hosts has spoken it.
Man can boast and predict, but the Word of the Lord endures forever!
Be confident in the coming Kingdom of Jesus up ahead.
Whatever the icons of Big Tech & Pharma try to foist on us, it won't succeed:
Isaiah 2:11-12 AMPC
The proud looks of man shall be brought low, and the haughtiness of men shall be humbled; and the Lord alone shall be exalted in that day. [12] For there shall be a day of the Lord of hosts against all who are proud and haughty and against all who are lifted up-and they shall be brought low-
Hallelujah!
Let them enjoy their "day in the sun" for it will soon be over.
