What We Need is a Strong Move of the Holy Ghost!

When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him” (Isaiah 59:19 KJV)

Reading: Isaiah 59:1-21¹

I am not too sure what you are going through, but many of God’s children are suffering under that bondage of darkness. Many more have permitted unnecessary sufferings because some so-called prophet convinced them that they must suffer because of their sins, or because of the sins that of their fathers.

Sin, corruption and oppression is the cause of the extreme suffering in the community. Evil reigns and the rights of people are taken away, and no one bats an eye. Today’s reading describes a very gloomy picture of what is happening around.

In Isaiah 59:16², the prophet tells us that many were battered and abused. So, the Lord looked to see whether there was a man that pleaded the cause of the oppressed and maimed and sick and suffering masses, but He found no advocate nor intercessors. Therefore, His arm brought salvation unto Him, and His righteousness sustained Him.

What a word! Many around the world are suffering but no one pleads their case nor intercede for them.

But the Lord says “I will repay the wicked for their wickedness.” The Lord of vengeance is dressing up to defend His own. He is coming to recompense the enemy according to their wickedness. He shall do this by His Spirit.

Then He adds “I will arise on your behalf, and if the enemy shall come, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard” referring to the move of the Spirit

So, what we need now is the mighty move of the Spirit of the Lord. This is the weapon that crushes the enemy that comes. The mighty move of the Spirit of the Lord is what will crush the enemy.

But hear this; the move of the Spirit comes by the Word of God in our mouths. Read the last two verses of Isaiah 59. He said;

And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD.  

(59:21) As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the LORD; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed’s seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and forever.

This reminds me of Romans 10:6-17³. The Word of God that will stir the move of the Spirit is in our mouth, and must remain in our mouths; remain in the mouth of our seeds; and in the mouth of our seed’s seed forever (Referring to our children and our grandchildren)

Glory! Hallelujah!

1. Isaiah 59:1-21 (KJV): Behold, the LORD’S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear. For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness. None calleth for justice, nor any pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity. They hatch cockatrice’ eggs, and weave the spider’s web: he that eateth of their eggs dieth, and that which is crushed breaketh out into a viper. Their webs shall not become garments, neither shall they cover themselves with their works: their works are works of iniquity, and the act of violence is in their hands. Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; wasting and destruction are in their paths. The way of peace they know not; and there is no judgment in their goings: they have made them crooked paths: whosoever goeth therein shall not know peace. Therefore is judgment far from us, neither doth justice overtake us: we wait for light, but behold obscurity; for brightness, but we walk in darkness. We grope for the wall like the blind, and we grope as if we had no eyes: we stumble at noonday as in the night; we are in desolate places as dead men. We roar all like bears, and mourn sore like doves: we look for judgment, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far off from us. For our transgressions are multiplied before thee, and our sins testify against us: for our transgressions are with us; and as for our iniquities, we know them; In transgressing and lying against the LORD, and departing away from our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood. And judgment is turned away backward, and justice standeth afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter. Yea, truth faileth; and he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey: and the LORD saw it, and it displeased him that there was no judgment. And he saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor: therefore his arm brought salvation unto him; and his righteousness, it sustained him. For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke. According to their deeds, accordingly he will repay, fury to his adversaries, recompence to his enemies; to the islands he will repay recompence. So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him. And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD. As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the LORD; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed’s seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and for ever. ↩︎

3. Romans 10:6-17 (KJV): But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:) Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.) But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Esaias saith, Lord, who hath believed our report? So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. ↩︎
