"For through the voice of the LORD shall the Assyrian be beaten down, which smote with a rod." Isaiah 30:31
One of the greatest reassurances that justice will be served at the
end is in the fact that ultimately, evil will be defeated. And this is
captured in the fact that at the end of the day, the final
personification of evil, the Antichrist, will be roundly defeated by
Jesus Christ in the final battle of this age. The prophets of old
foresaw this truth, and wrote about it thousands of years ago. This
truth of how the Lord Jesus Christ will destroy the Antichrist and his
armies at His return is also revealed in Revelation 19. With the sword
of His mouth, He will destroy the Antichrist and his armies.
Do
you feel that justice will never be served against acts of injustice?
Be comforted, knowing that God is a God of justice, and that He will
bring about justice, even though it may not be in the way that you
expect it to come. The prophets wrote to the Israelites in their hours
of great distress to bring them assurance of God's justice against their
oppressors, yet, what they told the people had to do with the judgment
that will come to their enemies at the end of age. If you can believe
that God will judge the Antichrist, who is evil personified, it will not
be difficult believing that He will bring you justice too.
"For thus hath the LORD spoken unto me, Like as the lion and the young lion roaring on his prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, he will not be afraid of their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them: so shall the LORD of hosts come down to fight for mount Zion, and for the hill thereof." Isaiah 31:4
"For thus hath the LORD spoken unto me, Like as the lion and the young lion roaring on his prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, he will not be afraid of their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them: so shall the LORD of hosts come down to fight for mount Zion, and for the hill thereof." Isaiah 31:4
On the day of the battle of Armageddon, the Lord will come like a lion
against the Antichrist and his armies. It will be a total destruction of
his army. I am not sure how many armies have risen against you, but be
comforted by the knowledge of the impending judgment of the Antichrist.
"As birds flying, so will the LORD of hosts defend Jerusalem; defending
also he will deliver it; and passing over he will preserve it." Isaiah
31:5. Since you know that the Lord will defend Jerusalem in spite of the
threats of the enemy, and that He will deliver His city and preserve
it, then you can be reassured that God will do the same for you too.
Satan's attempt to take the city of Jerusalem, and by it, thwart the
return of Jesus Christ, will be brought to an end because Jesus Christ
will defend Jerusalem and deliver it from the Antichrist. Same is true
for what God will do for those who have run to Him for shelter in Christ
Jesus. Have you thus run to Him? Then rest, because in the very sure
defeat of the Antichrist, you are assured that your victory will surely
come too, and justice will be served.
