For it is a day
of trouble, and of treading down, and of perplexity by the Lord GOD of hosts in
the valley of vision, breaking down the walls, and of crying to the mountains.
When you commit to follow on into an intimate relationship with the
Lord Jesus Christ, you must realize that you are entering the valley of vision,
and accept His chastening readily. When the day of trouble arrives, the aspects
of iniquity within one's soul rise quickly to the surface as the Lord exposes
them. If you have continually submitted to His correction there will be no
perplexity, as the Holy Spirit will guide you through the shaping process into
the image of Christ. You won't be found trying to hide in the valley of vision
when He breaks down the walls of idolatry, and you won't be found crying for
help to any false gods atop the mountains. No matter how it seems or what it
feels like, when the Lord tears apart things in your life, His goal is always
restoration and empowerment. As it is written,
Jeremiah 1:10
See, I have this day set thee over the nations
and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to
throw down, to build, and to plant.Related Scriptures: Isaiah 22:1-25; Job 5:17-27; Romans 8:1-39; Nahum 1:7-8 ; Hebrews 12:1-29
