OUR FATHER WHO MOVES TO DELIVER US FROM OPPRESSION AND BONDAGE

Isaiah chapter 19 verse 3 says this;

The Egyptians will lose heart, and I will bring their plans to nothing; they will consult the idols and the spirits of the dead, the mediums and the spiritists.

In the prophecy of Isaiah chapter 19, the kingdom of Egypt stands in for the oppressive powers of darkness that will move to take over the whole world and enslave God's people.

But at that time, the Lord, moving on a swift cloud, will come to the oppressive regime and bring judgements upon them that will overwhelm them and bring down their rulership.

When the Lord arrives, the Egyptians will lose heart and all their carefully laid plans will fall apart and add up to nothing.

Because they will understand that the forces working against them are supernatural, the Egyptians will turn to the spiritual advice of spiritists and mediums. They will invoke idols and spirits of the dead for counsel but these will not help them.

At every turn, the Egyptians will be thwarted.

Their unified front will collapse as they turn on each other and begin fighting amongst themselves.

To try to keep their evil ambitions viable, a harsh and cruel leader will be installed over them but he will bring even greater disunity.

Their economic support systems will fail and their supplies of provisions and materials will be disrupted.

All their wise men and advisors will utter foolishness and a spirit of dizziness will be put on them so that all their counsel will be that of drunkards.

That day approaches and now is when the Lord rides on a swift cloud to Egypt to bring their oppression and bondage of God's people to an end.

Amen.
