Word 1
God's Call To Judah For Repentance & Restoration Is 47:1-10
• Is 47:1-5 Prophet Isaiah predicted the fall of Babylon more than 150 years before it happened. At this time, Babylon had not yet emerged as the mightiest force on earth, the proud empire that would destroy Judah and Jerusalem. But the Babylonians, Judah's captors, would become captives themselves. God, not Babylon, has the ultimate power. He used Babylon to punish his sinful people; he would use another mightier Nation to destroy Babylon and free his people. God does what pleases Him.

Word 2
God's Call To Judah For Repentance & Restoration Is 47:1-10
• Is 47:6-7 God charged the Babylonians, though employed by himself to chastise his people, with cruelty in regard to them. They exceeded the bounds of justice and humanity in oppressing and destroying them; and though they were really executing the righteous decree of God, yet, as far as it regarded themselves, they were only indulging their own ambition and violence, without considering the end of it. Whatever God ask you to do has an expiry date. When it does, there is no going back so do it well now and consider.

Word 3
God's Call To Judah For Repentance & Restoration Is 47:1-10
• Is. 47:8-10 Babylon is addressed as the wicked “daughter,” because it had deified itself with the statement I am. They had tried to usurp the Lord’s unique attribute: Only the Almighty has an existence that is not dependent on another. Babylon is no longer considered a virgin, but instead is a widow (out of love). The imagery of the loss of children suggests the loss of hope in the future. Wickedness, wisdom, and knowledge here refer to the same idea as “sorceries” and “enchantments”. It gives an idea of 'No one sees me'. The selfish pride of the wicked is based in part on believing that there is not an all-knowing, all-seeing God in the universe.

Personal Supplication
Father in the name of Jesus, I receive the grace to remain humble in my own estimation no matter Your blessing and lifting in my life.
1 Pet 5:6 NLT
6 So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honor.

Daily Protection Covenant Declaration
Because I dwell in the secret place of the most High, I shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
Surely he shall deliver me from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
He shall cover me with his feathers, and under his wings shall I trust: his truth shall be my shield and buckler. I shall not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
Nor for the pestilence that walks in darkness; nor for the destruction that wastes at noonday.
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
Only with thine eyes shall I behold and see the wicked rewarded.

Because I have made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, my habitation;
There shall no evil befall me neither shall any plague come nigh my dwelling.
For God shall give his angels charge over me, to keep me in all my ways.
They shall bear me up in their hands, lest I dash my foot against a stone.
I shall tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt I trample under feet.
Because I have set my love upon God, therefore will He deliver me: He will set me on high, because I have known His name.
I shall call upon Him, and He will answer me: He will be with me in trouble; He will deliver me, and honour me.

With long life will God satisfy me, and shew me His salvation.
So shall it be for me and my household today and forever, Amen and Amen!

JESUS IS LORD!
