Day of Reckoning

Mat 23:13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in [yourselves], neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.

Mat 23:14 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.

Mat 23:15 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.

Isa 58:6 [Is] not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?

Greater accountability will be born by those who are in authority over men. The Lord has weighed the nation in the balance and it has come up wanting. We will see the power of His terrible swift sword. He is both a God of love, and He is terrible. Call on Him in repentance. His mercies are new each morning. But He will bring every evil deed into account. The righteous praise Him in all things.

Cities and nations come to a point that He will no longer hear their cries. Some governments are evil and need removed. But even in this the individual can repent. We are in a day of reckoning. Evil can no longer rule in this land. Righteousness shall prevail. We must keep hope. Therefore, do not focus on the obvious evil, look to the face of the Lord. We must have Him as our focus to undo every burden.

Psa 47:2 For the LORD most high [is] terrible; [he is] a great King over all the earth.
Psa 99:3 Let them praise thy great and terrible name; [for] it [is] holy.
