“Like a muddied spring or a polluted well are the righteous who give way to the wicked.” Proverbs 25:26 NIV
Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. Isaiah 5:20 NIV
“Those who forsake instruction praise the wicked, but those who heed it resist them.” Proverbs 28:4 NIV

Who is this harlot of harlots? Who has no shame or fear of her husband? She is brazen in her acts of adultery. She says in her heart I will position myself to usher in his kingdom. To build his kingdom here on Earth. She welcomes strangers, statespeople, rulers, and lawmakers into her bed chamber. She is convinced she serves her husband well as she seeks an alliance and audience with Egypt. She returns to her place of oppression, her place of bondage for a covenant. She has forgotten all that her husband has redeemed her from. She praises him with her mouth, but her heart is far from Him. She is easily seduced with promises of regulatory treasures of righteousness. Blinded, she is unable to see the torn tapestries of lies, and worm-infested fine linens of rotting man-made laws. She wines and dines its lawmakers, statespeople, and rulers. She spreads her legs under every tree on every legislative mountain, fornicating to gain power and position. All the while believing she ushers in her husband’s kingdom. She surrounds herself with deaf seers and pious religious leaders who seek their own glory and fame, and drinks from their table of lies. They tell her itching ears what she wants to hear. She claims to know her husband's will, but it changes day by day, hour after hour, according to her pathway to power. She goes into the shepherd’s sheepfold, feeding them deceptions of peace and prosperity, keeping them unaware of their approaching demise. For soon the husband will return and find a harlot of a church, who heeds not the voice of her husband. Who knows nothing of his heart, who openly rebels against his laws and upholds evil for personal gain, power, and position.
'Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor (near and far) as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” '
Matthew 22:37 40 NIV
Oh, she thinks there is no consequence for her actions. She believes her husband will rescue her from his coming judgement. She says of him, “he is loving, and kind, always forgiving, and I have done nothing wrong. See, I am rich and in need of nothing, I will usher in his kingdom, and he will bless me. I will build Zion; I will establish the kingdom for him.” The harlot has gained favor with the world through her harlotry and has led His lost sheep astray. She has not tended to the sheep of his pasture but fleeced them and prostituted them for power and position in her kingdom building. Shame and destruction will follow her perversions and distortions of her husband’s words. She is so arrogant and haughty that He has given her over to her heart's desire. As she sinks deeper into the pit of deception, darkness, shame, and rebellion where she will be judged for her sinful adultery, idolatry, and Baal worship. For the House of God will be judged first. If you have ears to hear, hear what the spirit is saying and Repent, Repent, Repent.~~1/3/2025 From Holy Spirit

“Woe to the obstinate children,” declares the Lord, “to those who carry out plans that are not mine, forming an alliance, but not by my Spirit, heaping sin upon sin; But Pharaoh’s protection will be to your shame, Egypt’s shade will bring you disgrace. everyone will be put to shame because of a people useless to them, who bring neither help nor advantage, but only shame and disgrace.” For these are rebellious people, deceitful children, children unwilling to listen to the Lord’s instruction. They say to the seers, “See no more visions!” and to the prophets, “Give us no more visions of what is right! Tell us pleasant things, prophesy illusions. Leave this way, get off this path, and stop confronting us with the Holy One of Israel!” Therefore this is what the Holy One of Israel says: “Because you have rejected this message, relied on oppression and depended on deceit, this sin will become for you like a high wall, cracked and bulging, that collapses suddenly, in an instant. It will break in pieces like pottery, shattered so mercilessly that among its pieces not a fragment will be found for taking coals from a hearth or scooping water out of a cistern.” This is what the Sovereign Lord, the Holy One of Israel, says: “In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength, but you would have none of it.”
Isaiah 30:1, 3, 5, 9-15 NIV
“Therefore, for this cause, God shall send the operation of error in them, that they should believe the lie; that they all might be condemned who did not believe the truth, but consented to the iniquity.” 2 Thessalonians 2:11-12 JUB
“The righteous care about justice for the poor, but the wicked have no such concern.” Proverbs 29:7 NIV
“The righteous detest the dishonest; the wicked detest the upright.” Proverbs 29:27 NIV
those who are pure in their own eyes and yet are not cleansed of their filth; those whose eyes are ever so haughty, whose glances are so disdainful; those whose teeth are swords and whose jaws are set with knives to devour the poor from the earth and the needy from among mankind.” Proverbs 30:12-14 NIV
This is the way of an adulterous woman: She eats and wipes her mouth and says, ‘I’ve done nothing wrong. Proverbs 30:20 NIV
“to deprive the poor of their rights and withhold justice from the oppressed of my people, making widows their prey and robbing the fatherless. What will you do on the day of reckoning, when disaster comes from afar? To whom will you run for help? Where will you leave your riches?” Isaiah 10:2-3 NIV
I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth. You say, ‘I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.’ But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked. I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich; and white clothes to wear, so you can cover your shameful nakedness; and salve to put on your eyes, so you can see. Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me. Revelation 3:15-18,20


So appropriate for the times we live in. In so many forms we (the Lord's body and church) compromise our walk in order to conform to the world. This word is a vivid reminder of what is required of us as we walk with love first and righteousness in equal measure.
