WOES ARE GREVIOUS DISTRESS AND TROUBLES

My Dear Precious Child,
   Under My old covenant with Abraham and His eventual descendant Jesus, Isaiah was a prophet called by Me to tell Judah that their nation and the people in it were sowing evil seeds that were going to grow plants of destruction, meaning that their evil actions were going to cause evil devastation to come upon them in the form of distress and troubles.  He prophesied to the entire nation that the evil looks on their faces were witnesses of their sins.  He declared their sin to be as bad as Sodom's and that they were even upfront with it. He said that they were dealing out evil that was going to come back upon them. (Isaiah 3:9)  His warning was that the consequences of the evil acts would come upon every man who does evil, that everything about his life would be affected and with the work of their hands they would be repaid with woes of devastation from hell.  He said that the just would be happy and that the good fruit of their own actions they would reap.  However, Isaiah said that the leaders of their country were misleading other people and they had even destroyed the good paths that the just people should follow. (Isaiah 3:10-12; Luke 11:46) Jesus spoke the same truth to the lawmakers of His day.
     My prophesy through Isaiah to the country of Judah related to the evil that the kings and prince had done and he reiterated that it was their evil attitudes and actions that were causing evil to come into their lives and their country.  He told them that I was telling them the reason why there were going to be destruction and devastation come upon them, which would accuse them and try them.  The troubles were not coming from Me.  They were coming from hell upon the country because of the attitudes and actions of the king and princes.
     My first and main accusations against Judah's king and princes were that they had devoured the vineyards of the poor, robbing from them, and they had wrestled money from the poor. (verses 13-14)  Isaiah asked the people of royalty what did they think they were doing by crushing people and grinding down the poor when those people looked to the royalty of their country for help?  The same thing is happening to your country today.
     The second consequence of the oppression of the poor was that curses would come against Judah's king and the prince's daughters who were haughty and walked with outstretched necks ogling and looking down upon people as they walked.  He said that as a result of their pride, oppression and snobbery to the poor that their scalps would be covered with scabs and their heads would become bald as a sign of disgrace, that their fine jewelry and clothes with which they adorned themselves would be gone.  He said because of the oppression of the poor that instead of their smelling like perfume that their aroma would be a stench, and instead of a jeweled belt they would have to use a rope.  Instead of their beautiful coiffures, the heads of the king's daughters would be bald and instead of rich gowns they would have clothes of burlap, all gifts from the devil in hell for yielding to his temptations to oppress the poor.  (verses 16-24)
     The third consequence of the king and princes oppressing the poor was that the men would die in war, even their champions, that their people would mourn and lament at the gates to their cities in their country because of the consequences of the way that their royalty treated the poor and Isaiah said that the cities would sit desolate on the ground, losing all of their resources (verses 24-26)  
      Isaiah told them that I had to take away My protection from them because they had chosen to do the devil's will of heaping evil up the poor.  Evil begets evil, and good and evil cannot coexist.   He told them that because they did evil to the poor that they caused evil to come upon themselves.  (Isaiah 3:1 and 10 and 11)
     Those woes that came upon Judah are the same woes that Jesus Christ, in His days on earth, told the politicians and the lawyers (the Pharisees and scribes) were going to come upon them because of their same evil activities against the poor.  (Luke 6:24; Luke 11:43-44; Luke 11:52; Luke 6:44-45)
     Jesus said that when the governing authorities in countries do evil to the least fortunate of people, they do them to Me.  When they do, My protection is no longer active in their countries because they have chosen the devil as their god instead of choosing Me, the Father of Love, as their God.  The evil demons who enticed them to do evil to the poor form a barrier between us, so that I cannot hear them and neither can I help them.  Then the devil floods their portion of the earth with all manner of woes, like floods, droughts, fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, pandemics of diseases, typhoons, tsunamis, riots, etc. all because of their choosing to do the devil's will of afflicting and oppressing the poor. (Isaiah 58:1-8; Isaiah 59:1-4)  
     I expected people in the earth who call themselves by My name to have learned from their History and Instruction Books by now.  Evidently not.  The politicians and religious leaders of countries who call themselves by My name still oppress the poor by withholding health benefits from them, caging and starving the children of immigrants, refusing to extend hospitality to the immigrants who are escaping domineering rulers, the travesty of separating babies and children from their parents and other atrocities, all doing those actions in My name by saying that their nation is a nation that honors Me.  They don't know Me if they do such things.   
     Tell the leaders of your countries to look around them at the destruction that they allowed to flood into their lands because of how they treat the poor.  What they have sown has come upon them and the people of their country; or, like Isaiah told the rulers of Judah, "The rewards of the actions of your own hands have rewarded you with evil done to yourselves."  (Isaiah 59:1-4; Luke 11:45-46; Matthew 25:32-45)  I have no part in any of the evil.  All evil comes upon people because of their doing the will of the devil in their lives to the poor, the disenfranchised, the crippled, the widows and the fatherless, the demon possessed, the brokenhearted and the mentally ill.
     The righteous and the just people who do My will can enjoy righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit while the people of their country suffer with the grievous distresses that they inherited when they joined in agreement with the politicians and religious leaders who have brought woes upon themselves by oppressing the poor and locking up My kingdom of heaven from people while they themselves have also not entered even though they cast out demons in My name, prophesied and in My name have done wonderful works.  (Matthew 7:17-27) What they did to the poor and least fortunate of people, they did to Me by obeying the temptations of the devil to afflict the poor and disenfranchised people of the world.  
    Repentance is always available, that being to turn from evil works that are done to the very people that Jesus Christ came to earth to save. Until there is repentance from the politicians and religious leaders who are in unity with oppressing the poor, there is no end to the woes.
