Christ instead, much as the Ten Tribes polluted Pure worship of our Father while in captivity to Assyria. It took The New Covenant Jesus Christ to pull the Ten Tribes of Israel, i.e. the 'house of Israel', out of that mess of false whorship. What will it take to overcome in our near future, a false messiah proclaiming to be our True Messiah, or another gospel proclaiming 'peace, peace, peace'? This is why our Father is revealing these Messages here in The Old Testament, to those who care enough about Him to study His Word for themselves. It is to let us know 'to wait' for The True Messiah Jesus Christ, as the 'another gospel' which is being proclaimed now by the false king's (Satan) little workers will become much stronger as more deceived peoples fall into it when false messiah (antichrist) appears on the scene. Oh how most people love to follow the majority in popular things! (The Lemmings.)

Isa 16:11   Wherefore My bowels shall sound like an harp for Moab, and Mine inward parts for Kirharesh.
12    And it shall come to pass, when it is seen that Moab is weary on the high place, that he shall come to his sanctuary to pray; but he shall not prevail.

     God has removed Himself from them. Why in the world should He hear Moab's prayer or anyone else as they turn away from Him, to their 'own' sanctuary? Their 'fruit' they produce is according to the Kenites wishes and teachings; i.e. the Kenites sanctuary of Satan's children. No wonder their plentiful harvest is gone, because thorns are all the fruit you get from false worship. "Well I don't know, I've got a mansion, millions of dollars, control much of the world's resources....” the Kenite might say. Stick around; it's all COMING DOWN TO THE DUST!  You want to live after those things you can touch, smell, taste, hear, and feel, and even worship the things you've made, thus denying Jehovah through Christ? Just wait. You better enjoy those things achieved by ill-gotten gains real good!  For there is little time left before those false systems are thrown down to the pit, to the dust. The BRIGHTNESS of Christ's coming will see to it!

Isa 16:13   This is the word that the LORD hath spoken concerning Moab since that time.
14    But now the LORD hath spoken, saying, "Within three years, as the years of an hireling, and the glory of Moab shall be contemned, with all that great multitude; and the remnant shall be very small and feeble."

     This Message concerning Moab given by our Father through Isaiah began just after Chapter 14. I hope you haven't forgotten about Isaiah 14 and the 'Assyrian'. This desolation of Moab 'within three years' time is confirmed in Travels in Syria by Burckhardt. He states: "The ruins of Eleale, Heshbon, Meon, Medaba, Dibon, Arver, all situated on the north side of the Arnon, still subsist to illustrate the history of the Beni-Israel" ("Life and Travels," prefixed to the "Travel's in Nubia," pp. 48,49).

     And as this prophecy evidently came to pass historically, also remember what the Assyrian is a 'type' for our near future. This 'three years' time should remind you of the tribulation of the false messiah, Satan as a false king upon the earth, in person, sitting in the future flesh temple of Jerusalem. This Great Book of Isaiah reveals that Cyrus, God's anointed, destroyed the false kingdom of the Assyrian historically; so as a 'type' for our near future during the tribulation false kingdom of the Assyrian (the antichrist), Who will be in Cyrus' historical role? Yeshu'a Messiah Jesus Christ, God's Anointed Savior is He, Immanuel; 'God with us' is His Name. We covered this link about the future role of Cyrus back in Isaiah Chapter 13, and God will have more to say about him later in this Book of Isaiah.

     Even though we're not even half-way through the Book of Isaiah, we already have much proof from God's Word that a future false messiah who would be king, is coming before our Savior Jesus Christ returns. The counting of the Seven Trumpets of Revelation as compared with Paul's Message of the 'last trump' of I Cor.15 also verifies this Truth here in Isaiah about the order of events prior to Christ's return, as even our Lord so teaches in His Gospel (see Seven Signs study). In other words, GOD really 'stretched' out this Message of the sequence of events to happen concerning our time
