We have been trained to believe that judgment day is something in the future and something to be feared. However, The Bible is timeless and yet is in time. There are times when judgment has happened in history, like when God judged Egypt or Sodom and Gomorrah. There are judgments coming in the future, when everyone will stand before the white throne judgment. And there are judgments in the present which we are about to experience. The challenge is our narrative is so negative when we think of judgement, but we do not know the heart of God and what judgement is truly all about.

We have entered into a time of Isaiah 2 judgment. It is a much needed judgment, and this judgment is going to gift us in ways we are not even aware of, but so desperately need and desire. The Isaiah 2 judgment is this, “He shall judge between the nations, and shall decide disputes for many peoples; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war anymore.” The judge on the throne is the Prince of Peace and the judgments He is rending is ones of reconciliation and restoration, so we no longer fight with each other.

Love is breaking the spirit of war in the hearts of people. We are receiving an exchange of our weapon for a harvesting tool if we will receive it. The throne room of God, the judgement seat of Christ has rendered a verdict that the wars, arguments, battles, must end and we are being gifted with love for one another. The war is in our hearts and manifests in our relationships, but the war has been declared over by the Lord. Doctrinal wars will end, ideological wars will end, political wars will end, financial wars will end. We have lived so guarded for so long, it will take some time to know what love is, but love is winning the war, for God is Love and the Prince of Peace is ending the wars, so we can live together in peace not suspicion, love not war.

Welcome to the Isaiah 2 judgment, which is changing the narrative, the landscape of our hearts and nations.
