“Raise Your Voice Like A Trumpet”
Isaiah 58:1
Yahveh prophesied through the prophet Isaiah “See, I lay a stone in Zion, [Yahshua (Jesus)]… a precious cornerstone for a sure foundation …I will make justice the measuring line and righteousness the plumb line” (Isaiah 28:16-17). Behold I am about to put a plumb line in the midst of My people …I will spare them no longer” (Amos 7:8). The Holy One says, “…raise your voice like a trumpet, and declare to My people their transgression…” (Isaiah 58:1). Lift your voice that they will hear and heed what the Spirit of Truth is saying, so that they might be freed from deception, freed from every way that contends against the truth, and come and worship the Almighty in Spirit and in truth. Yahveh God’s voice is being magnified louder and sharper, in these end times. Many are going to put their hands over their ears, as Israel did in days of old when she said, “I don’t want to hear the prophet’s words, stop confronting me with the holy things of the Holy One. I want to live my life. I want to eat, drink, and be merry. So what if judgment might come? They have been saying this Savior is going to come back for many years, and I really don’t want to hear another word about it. Let me beFor those whose hope is rooted in eternity, they are grateful that by His Spirit, Yahveh (the Lord) warns His people of His righteousness, their need to repent of sins that fall short of His glory, and of the judgment that is coming (see John 16:8). The Holy Spirit, the Ruach HaKodesh is the Spirit who sets apart or separates. What does He separate us from? He separates us from the world, out of the things that contaminate our body, soul, spirit, and mind. He separates us from error and deception. He separates us from the “prince of the power of the air” (Ephesians 2:2), Satan himself who rules this earthly kingdom. The Holy Spirit, the Ruach HaKodesh separates us from all that would keep us from the eternal blessings of the Most High Yahveh and His Son Yahshua (Jesus) the Messiah. Yahshua said, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me” (John 14:6.). No one can come to the eternal Father and His eternal kingdom except through Yahshua Messiah (Jesus Christ).
The shofar (trumpet) is sounding throughout the earth to get the attention of a remnant of people from every nation and race. This called out chosen people is a small group of sold out believers who have counted the cost and continue to pay the price to walk in humble obedience to their beloved King and Savior. Not everyone who calls Him Lord and Savior within the religious system belongs to Him. The righteous requirements of the righteous King are a very straight and narrow path. They are not impossible, because with the Almighty nothing is impossible. It is a matter of the heart. Those who desire truth at any price will joyfully forfeit the familiar comfort zone of this world, their own selfish pursuits and ambitions, and any attitude or practice that has compromised Yahveh’s holy biblical standards. “Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness” (Isaiah 5:20) and who rise up and contend against the knowledge of Yahveh (the Lord) and His immutable truths—the holy Scriptures.“For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments; and His commandments are not burdensome” (1 John 5:3). Yahshua (Jesus) says, “‘You shall love Yahveh your Elohim (God) with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the great and foremost commandment. The second is like it, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself’” (Matthew 22:36-39). So if you don’t love Him with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength, this message about the Holy One’s righteousness that is sounding in this late hour before judgment is going to be nothing but a thorn in your side, an intrusion into your lifestyle, and a big, depressing bummer.
