Babylon Falls

Statue_of_liberty_doomsday

I opened my Bible yesterday, where I had left a bookmark in this chapter of Isaiah. Most of us are already familiar with the story of “The Tower Of Babel” in Genesis 11.   I mention Genesis as a history lesson on what happens when man’s arrogance and pride get’s in the way of the Lord’s will. Based on the prophecy many have shared with us, let’s consider placing the “United States” in this part of scripture where you see the word “Babylon”.

More souls for the Kingdom is the goal.  Let’s keep our daily walk with the Lord going: Repent For our sins daily, Pray, Read the Bible, Praise & Worship him.   Quoting from Bette here “keep a short list of accountability with the Lord”.   Remember to do a prayer walk & anoint with oil (physically, visually or just in prayer) and plea the Blood of the Lamb for protection on our property–windows, doors, fences–, vehicles, anyone or anything within/without our dwellings — that should also include any food we bring into our house, water, communication equipment, electricity, etc.    

Isaiah 13

An oracle (prophecy) against Babylon that Isaiah son of Amoz saw:

2 Lift up a banner on a barren mountain. Call out to them. Wave your hand, and they will go through the gates of the nobles. 

3 I have commanded My chosen ones; I have also called My warriors, who exult in My triumph, to execute My wrath. 

4 Listen, a tumult (loud noise) on the mountains, like that of a mighty people! Listen, an uproar among the kingdoms, like nations being gathered together! The Lord of Hosts is mobilizing an army for war. 

5 They are coming from a far land, from the distant horizon— the Lord and the weapons of His wrath— to destroy the whole country. 

6 Wail! For the day of the Lord is near. It will come like destruction from the Almighty. 

7 Therefore everyone’s hands will become weak, and every man’s heart will melt. 

8 They will be horrified; pain and agony will seize them; they will be in anguish like a woman in labor. They will look at each other, their faces flushed with fear. 

9 Look, the day of the Lord is coming— cruel, with rage and burning anger— to make the earth a desolation and to destroy the sinners on it. 

10 Indeed, the stars of the sky and its constellations will not give their light. The sun will be dark when it rises, and the moon will not shine. 

11 I will bring disaster on the world, and their own iniquity, on the wicked.  I will put an end to the pride of the arrogant and humiliate the insolence of tyrants. 

12 I will make man scarcer than gold, and mankind more rare than the gold of Ophir    (a region famous for its wealth). 

13 Therefore I will make the heavens tremble, and the earth will shake from its foundations at the wrath of the Lord of Hosts, on the day of His burning anger. 

14 Like wandering gazelles and like sheep without a shepherd, each one will turn to his own people, each one will flee to his own land. 

15 Whoever is found will be stabbed, and whoever is caught will die by the sword. 

16 Their children will be smashed to death before their eyes; their houses will be looted, and their wives raped. 

17 Look! I am stirring up the Medes against them, who cannot be bought off with silver
and who have no desire for gold.  (Medes: a member of an Iranian people who inhabited ancient Media, establishing an extensive empire during the 7th century BC, which was conquered by Cyrus the Great King of Persia in 550 BC.)

18 Their bows will cut young men to pieces. They will have no compassion on little ones; they will not look with pity on children. 

19 And Babylon, the jewel of the kingdoms, the glory of the pride of the Chaldeans,
will be like Sodom and Gomorrah when God overthrew them.  (Chaldean: a member of an ancient people who lived in Chaldea circa 800 BC and ruled Babylonia 625–539 BC. They were renowned as astronomers and astrologers. This area is now Southern Iraq).

20 It will never be inhabited or lived in from generation to generation; a nomad will not pitch his tent there, and shepherds will not let their flocks rest there. 

21 But desert creatures will lie down there, and owls will fill the houses. Ostriches will dwell there, and wild goats will leap about. 

22 Hyenas will howl in the fortresses, and jackals, in the luxurious palaces.
Babylon’s time is almost up; her days are almost over.

  1. OK. I haven’t read the post above yet, but CONFIRMATION just struck me!
    I have just finished listening to a CD of on-going lessons verse by verse through the Book of Genesis. The CD which I JUST now finished was going over the passages on “The Tower of Babel”!!

    She was saying that the REVERSE of that was ACTS 2, where the group was waiting together in one accord in one room, not seeking to exalt themselves (as with The Tower of Babel), but seeking God; and God came down; then they spoke in languages that ALL could understand.

    She explained that we should not be seeking a name for ourselves, but
    to MAKE HIS NAME FAMOUS; that our names should be hidden in
    HIS NAME!!

  2. JC, blessings on you! I’d like to offer a bit more historical explanation on the gold of Ophir:

    The region was extraordinarily wealthy due to both the quantity and quality of the gold mined there. It was far superior in purity to gold from other areas, possessing a richness or depth of color that kings clamored for.

    People paid handsomely for their gold, when they could get it. And there’s the clue to the statement, “more rare than the gold of Ophir.” Because the people prized their gold it so highly, they were loathe to sell it. It was not commonly used in trade. Oh sure, some trickled out, in favored gifts (Solomon received a lot!) and the occasional trade, but for the most part it stayed in Ophir. So in every other land, this beautiful, pure, highly prized gold was extremely rare.

    The purity of gold is measured in karats (k), with the higher numbers indicating more purity. 24k is pure gold. It’s almost never used for jewelry because it is too soft to hold its shape well. In the USA, 10k gold is the standard for cheap gold jewelry, but most gold jewelry is 14k. For those who can afford it, 18k jewelry is also readily available. In comparison, 10k looks almost like brass; quite pale, and much better described as yellow than gold.

    Gold mined in the Dakotas is often pink or green rather than the normal, yellow-gold color because of the particular metals that are present as impurities within the gold. These unique, rare colors give their gold a higher value even though the karat rating is lower. Someone may correct me, but I’ve never seen 18k pink or green gold and therefore wonder if it can exist; at 18k, perhaps the gold is pure enough that only the yellow-gold color would remain. Likewise, impurities from another metal creates white gold, which to my eye looks more like silver than platinum.

    But in Thailand, only cheap or imported gold jewelry is not made to their standard: 23k. Comparing 23k jewelry to 18k, the difference is as stark as comparing 10k to 18k. It is truly remarkable. I don’t know what karat number would have been assigned to the gold of Ophir. But whatever the number, the appearance of the gold would have been that drastically different to the gold available from other sources.

    Couldn’t gold be refined then to higher levels of purity? Surely so. But either they couldn’t achieve that level of purity, or the gold of Ophir was more highly prized because it came out of the ground in that condition and needed no refiner’s fire.

  3. I was thinking this about the title of this post:
    “BABYLON FALLS= BABBLE ON FALLS”!!!

    (“Babbling on” about everything, with all but a remnant world-wide seeking and speaking the only TRUTH, TRUE COMPASS, THE HOLY BIBLE!!)

      1. “BABBLE ON” is a futile, failing system, driven by “power, money, and
        s__x.” We are currently living in this “system.”
        It has NEVER WORKED historically and it doesn’t work now.

  4. In the kjv that Isaiah 13:21 the word owl is from hebrew Leylith. Or Lilith in kabbalistic mythology. She was to this occult hebrew branch of religion Adams first wife before Eve.

    She was banished from Adam because she wanted to dominate her husband and fell to consorting and cohabiting with demons and devils giving birth to demonic offspring!

    Hence the Kjv talks about satyrs instead of wild goats. Satyrs are half men half goat like Pan the greek god outside whose cave or temple Jesus stood while being close to mount Hermon.
    Im still abit sleepy after my nap but its close to the story of the mount of transfiguration in the bible id remember.

    This passage is far more supernatural viewed from hebrew perspective!

    Destruction
    Mar 11, 2016 11:09 am | Glynda Linkous
    My children really do not understand the gravity and magnitude of the destruction that is coming to the earth. It is not just an event, it is world changing – it will affect every single nation on earth, in terrible ways; The food supply, conveniences of daily life. And tyranny besides.

    Those who walk very close to Me I can protect, but many of you shall be taken in a short time because you refuse to draw nearer to Me and be prepared in My Word.

    What is coming is grave indeed, children. It is up to you whether you survive it.

    Matthew 24:6-10

    6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
    7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
    8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
    9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake.

    10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.

  7. Its interesting when talking about Chaldeans and their roots as a people and migration to Europe and then later the Usa.

    Genetic heritage runs through blood for generations and even if a person dont have the outward characteristics of a certain race one of his ancestors might which makes him represent that group.

    This was introduction! Webster Tarpley and Joseph P Farrell are both scholars of class. They traced the Chaldeans first to Rome where they outgrew the host population through the fact that the romans warred themselves to death and the Chaldeans as slaves outbred the hosts.

    Later they were instrumental in forming Venice which became the powerhouse of medieval Europe and founder of the modern banking world.

    As America was discovered the Venetians moved their banking and power structure to Holland and Britain which later developed into control of the Us through economic slavery ie the Federal reserve through many battles.

    Hence we have a large segment of population especially within the ruling elite who descend from European banking aristocracy and European population with Euro-Chaldean roots.

    These have formed the structure of governance within the Us and so culturally if not ethnically a great part of the Us is Chaldean in root although nigh invisible to the untrained eye.

    So there is an very open possibility that the Us can be babylon in Isaiah and the other prophets like Daniels kingdom of iron mixed with miry clay.

    Roman steel discipline and blood mixed with the sorcerous offspring of Chaldea from ancient Babylon to rome-venice-holland-britain to America.

    Ponder this people!

    1. Stig, I keep seeing videos and teachings on the middle east being babylon. Since the 80s I saw america as babylon. Every scripture of prophecy referring to this I see america. I almost asked about this the other day on here yet have been trying to catch up on things around here with family etc.

        I was personally in contact with him until a few weeks before his passing away.

  8. (This posting below, appears to be yet another confirmation of the message of this post “Babylon Falls”)
    A Watchman on the Wall
    Posted: 11 Mar 2016 11:33 PM PST
    ” As the fig tree was without fruit, so too is My church. The fig tree had a healthy appearance but no fruit. The church you see around you has no love, no commitment to Me, no correction of sin and no Holy Spirit. It is governed by unrighteous rebellious religious zealots. Having a form of godliness they deny My power yet millions continue to support this false religion, christian in name only. My church leads the way to a destructive end, while My Spirit cries to be heard. Oh man, how evil you have become.

    21
    “Hear this, O foolish and senseless people who have eyes, but see not, who have ears, but hear not.” Jeremiah 5:21

    The days of darkness sweep across your land. What you see is not reality. What you see is darkness disguised as truth. Carnage is all around you masquerading as goodness and light to those whose eyes are blinded, whose ears have been deafened by the noise of the musicians of madness. The enemy blinds My children so they will not see My goodness. Many shepherds have been blinded and teach not My truths. Those that once moved under My annointing have now become a carbon copy of the wretchedness of this world.

    Shame, great shame will soon come upon those who realize they have followed where I have not led. Indeed it is a house of cards that will soon fall to the ground to arise again only after much tribulation and testing. Watch and pray, do not boast or grow proud but interceed for those who have lost their way. My church will soon fall in disarray and none shall revive it. Only My Spirit will save and His presence is not welcome in the church of today.

    As in the days My Son walked the earth, the church has become a den of thieves, lacking in prayer it steals security and salvation from the people. Great will be the fall of this religious system, this house of false hope and compromise. One then another will feel the sting of My holy anger. Their ungodliness will be exposed and as it is exposed the world will take one more opportunity to mock, scoff and hurl accusations at My Son and My true followers; an open door for persecution, attempting tighter control on churches as a result. Unholy alliances and doctrines of demons have caused a great shifting away from My Word and it’s teachings of love, forgiveness and hope.”

    “Although the fig tree shall not blossom, neither shall fruit be in the vines; the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat; the flock shall be cut off from the fold, and there shall be no herd in the stalls: Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation. The LORD God is my strength, and He will make my feet like hind’s feet and He will make me to walk upon mine high places.” Habakkuk 3:17-19

    1. That’s cute. I believe God even orchestrates these little “humor” moments for us. I suppose it’s like Bette Stevens says, “BALANCE”!

      Maybe God wants us to have a light moment once in a while, or even more often than we do, from our dedication to all of the serious end time news.
