Therefore DO NOT LET YOUR GOOD BE SPOKEN OF AS EVIL; for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but RIGHTEOUSNESS and PEACE and JOY in the Holy Spirit.
Romans 14:16-17
“I have cut off nations, their fortresses are devastated; I have made their streets desolate, with none passing by. Their cities are destroyed; there is no one, no inhabitant.
I said, ‘Surely you will fear Me, you will receive instruction’ — so that her dwelling would not be cut off, despite everything for which I punished her. But they rose early and corrupted all their deeds.
“THEREFORE WAIT FOR ME,” SAYS THE LORD, “UNTIL THE DAY I RISE UP FOR PLUNDER; MY DETERMINATION IS TO GATHER THE NATIONS TO MY ASSEMBLY OF KINGDOMS, TO POUR ON THEM MY INDIGNATION, ALL MY FIERCE ANGER; ALL THE EARTH SHALL BE DEVOURED WITH THE FIRE OF MY JEALOUSY.
“For then I will restore to the peoples a pure language, that they all may call on the name of the Lord, to serve Him with one accord.
From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia, My worshipers, the daughter of My dispersed ones, shall bring My offering.
In that day you shall not be shamed for any of your deeds, in which you transgress against Me; for then I will take away from your midst those who rejoice in your pride, and you shall no longer be haughty in My holy mountain.
I will leave in your midst a meek and humble people, and they shall trust in the name of the Lord.
THE REMNANT OF ISRAEL SHALL DO NO UNRIGHTEOUSNESS AND SPEAK NO LIES, NOR SHALL A DECEITFUL TONGUE BE FOUND IN THEIR MOUTH; for they shall feed their flocks and lie down, and no one shall make them afraid.”
Sing, O daughter of Zion! shout, O Israel! Be glad and rejoice with all your heart, O daughter of Jerusalem!
The Lord has taken away your judgments, He has cast out your enemy. The King of Israel, the Lord, is in your midst; you shall see disaster no more.
In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem: “Do not fear; Zion, let not your hands be weak.
The Lord your God in your midst, the Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing.”
“I will gather those who sorrow over the appointed assembly, who are among you, to whom its reproach is a burden.
Behold, at that time I will deal with all who afflict you; I will save the lame, and gather those who were driven out; I will appoint them for praise and fame in every land where they were put to shame.
At that time I will bring you back, even at the time I gather you; for I will give you fame and praise among all the peoples of the earth, WHEN I RETURN YOUR CAPTIVES BEFORE YOUR EYES,” says the Lord.
