the survivors of Jacob,
will no longer rely on him
who struck them down
but will truly rely on the Lord,
the Holy One of Israel. A remnant will return, a remnant of Jacob
will return to the Mighty God. Though your people be like the sand by the sea, Israel,
only a remnant will return.
Destruction has been decreed,
overwhelming and righteous. The Lord, the Lord Almighty, will carry out
the destruction decreed upon the whole land. Therefore this is what the Lord, the Lord Almighty, says:
"My people who live in Zion,
do not be afraid of the Assyrians,
who beat you with a rod
and lift up a club against you, as Egypt did. Very soon my anger against you will end
and my wrath will be directed to their destruction." (Isaiah 10:20-25 NIV)
Livia knows that God is faithful so even though he was angry - he says that his anger will be directed toward destruction.
Let's make sure we are not causing destruction but rather building up!!
Amen!
