How art thou fallen to destroy the land

??Isaiah 14:12-23 KJVAAE?? [12] How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! [13] For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: [14] I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the Most High. [15] Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. [16] They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms; [17] that made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners? [18] All the kings of the nations, even all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own house. [19] But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch, and as the raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go down to the stones of the pit; as a carcass trodden under feet. [20] Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed thy land, and slain thy people: the seed of evildoers shall never be renowned. [21] Prepare slaughter for his children for the iniquity of their fathers; that they do not rise, nor possess the land, nor fill the face of the world with cities. [22] For I will rise up against them, saith the Lord of hosts, and cut off from Babylon the name, and remnant, and son, and nephew, saith the Lord. [23] I will also make it a possession for the bittern, and pools of water: and I will sweep it with the besom of destruction, saith the Lord of hosts. God sees and knows all, by God's grace and mercy that none shall Parrish we have been given ample opportunity to return, hopefully more can come to know God, through the promised Holy Spirit, understanding what is going on within one and around one

Lucifer 's fall was due to his wicked desire to place himself above God. God will not forgive an arch angel's craving for power. But He will forgive the humans who are far lesser than angels in worth and wisdom, if we repent. Great biblical quotes .Thanks a lot Stephan for sharing.

The blind, the deaf, the stubborn…have no idea what awaits if they don’t repent and embrace the King of kings. Heartwrenching…

Indeed, my friend such was I, all those you mentioned, : (. Only by the redemption of Jesus spirit sent to bury the old self that Christ promised spirit shall reign within, to be the temple God wants to dwell within not made from hands of man, : )
