BLESSED BY IDENTIFYING GOOD AS GOOD AND EVIL AS EVIL

My Dear Precious Child, Isaiah was well acquainted with the woes of the devil. In His prophesies to Israel and Judah he gave to them the reasons for their WOES which came upon them because of their engaging in sin, iniquities and oppression of the poor. One of his warnings that he spoke to the leaders of those countries is that they had gone into captivity to their enemies of demons because they had no knowledge of Me. Because of refusing to honor Me and be bound to Me, they became bound to evil temptations and thus became defeated by their spiritual enemies of demons acting through other humans. (Isaiah 5:13) Isaiah described the part that the devil plays in the scenario of the battle between good and evil because he is all evil. The prophet described it as Sheoul, or hell which is the unseen realm of evil, that hell had enlarged its appetite and opened its mouth without measure and therefore Jerusalem's nobility and her multitude of politicians in their pomp and conflict exulted in their descent into hell. They brought the common people lower in stature than they already were locked and even the great rulers were brought low, plus the eyes of the haughty were humbled. Even though humans were cursed by the WOES of hell in their lives on earth by binding themselves to the devil and following his voice of temptation, yet I am exalted again in your life when you do justice to other people and I show Myself righteous and I do righteous works in contrast to the evil that the elite politicians and religious leaders engage. (Isaiah 5:14-17) Isaiah spoke to the leaders of Israel and Judah and warned them that WOES would come to the people who bind themselves to calamity with their cords of iniquity and falsehood, bringing punishment upon themselves with the rope of wickedness toward their fellow men. He said that the people say to the prophets to hurry up with their prophesies so that they will see their prophesied calamities and let the Holy One of Israel come so that they will know the prophesies were real. (Isaiah 5:18-19) Then Isaiah prophesied that WOES were coming upon the people who call evil good and who call good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. He also added to that prophesy that WOES would come upon people who are wise in their own eyes and prudent and shrewd in their own sight, and WOES would come upon people who are heroes to themselves by drinking strong wine and men of strength who think they get strength in mixing alcoholic drinks, plus Woes would come upon those people who acquit the guilty for taking a bribe and whose who take away the rights of the innocent and who take righteousness from the innocent. Isaiah explained fully in this prophesy that bad things in the earth come upon humanity because of the seeds of evil that they sow in the lives of the innocent, the sojourner, the poor, the widows, the orphans and the downtrodden. (Isaiah 5:20-23) He prophesied that My anger was kindled against people who know My commands and yet they do not do them. Because of their being bound to the works of evil instead of being bound to My works of good, they have bound themself to the works of the devil and Isaiah said that the devil would send his army of men to consume Judah and execute his judgment upon the Jews. They should have known good from evil and bound themselves to good instead of the evil temptations from Sheol to which they so easily obeyed. It was not My judgment that was executed upon them, it was the devil's judgment which I had pronounced against the evil works in which men so easily engaged. I pronounced that judgment on the evil demons when I set in place the lake of fire in the abyss to which the demons must be sent as My judgment upon them. I never meant for humans to inherit My judgment for the devil, but when humans bind themselves so tightly to the devil by obeying his temptations and persecuting and harassing My prophets, the poor, and the widows and ophans, they inherit by osmosis My judgment on the devil. (Matthew 13:36-42) I sent prophet after prophet to speak My truth and My words of love to people but they refused to listen to Me and turn from their wicked ways. They often choose evil over good because their eyes have been blinded by the devil to call evil good and to call good evil. The displeasures of the calamities that come upon them were meant for the devil and his demons, and only them. They were not meant for My children. However, when My children bind themselves to the devil by yielding to his temptations, they also inherit My judgment that I intended for the devil and his demons. That is why I said to choose good over evil, so that no WOES will come into your life on earth and cause you to have self pity and then exhibit "poor me" attitudes in the earth which only multiply your WOES. When WOES do come into your life, you must repent and begin to declare your loyalty to Me through praise and thanksgiving which allow you to shed all of the WOES because you have chosen to switch from loyalty to evil and only choose to be loyal to My goodness. Follow the prophesies of Isaiah and Jesus Christ that tell you to do right by doing justly to the oppressed, correcting the oppressor, defending the fatherless and pleading for the widow. Learn to reason with Me instead of obeying the temptations of the devil so that your scarlet sins will become white as snow. I said if you are willing that you will eat the good of the land. (Isaiah 1:17-19) Your Heavenly Father of Mercy and Forgiveness.
