All of these symbols and analogies that our Father gave us should confirm the message in your heart that God is going to allow this false 'rock', false 'prince', false 'king', false 'morning star', false 'rod of correction', false 'Messiah', to play the role of Jesus, while these false 'ministers of righteousness' work in the flesh. The 'spiritual Kingdom' of the True Messiah will destroy this false kingdom of 'flesh'.

 

2 Cor.11: ...but though I be rude in speech, but not in knowledge.

Isa 7:20   In the same day shall the LORD shave with a rasor that is hired, namely, by them beyond the river, by the king of Assyria, the head, and the hair of the feet: and it shall also consume the beard.

     When you’ve had even the hair shaved off your feet, you know that’s a pretty close cut. Have you ever had surgery where most of your body hair was shaved off? That’s how complete Satan is going to shave the ‘apostate’ children of God. That’s who this message is mainly to, God’s ‘apostate’ children that He loves enough to discipline. They are ‘apostate’ because they have turned away from Him and worship they know not what! A really important point to grasp in this verse is that God is using the king of Assyria to punish His people. God controls Satan, for that is who the Assyrian king of the future will be. God is going to show more of this idea that He is in control, later in this Book of Isaiah.

Isa 7:21   And it shall come to pass in that day, that a man shall nourish a young cow, and two sheep;

22   And it shall come to pass, for the abundance of milk that they shall give he shall eat butter: for butter and honey shall every one eat that is left in the land.

     One cow and two sheep isn’t much farming friend. But this one cow and two sheep will give an ‘abundance of milk’. Remember the reference to Immanuel in verse 15 where He would eat ‘butter and honey’? This is an analogy of the ‘Bread of Life’, which is Christ. These two verses mean that there will be so few of those left following Christ and God’s Word that the remnant left among the land, even with one cow and two sheep, are going to have plenty to eat. This refers to that ‘famine’ that God said He would bring in the latter days, not a famine for food, but for hearing the Word of God, or Spiritual Bread.

 

Amos 8: 8:1 A basket of summer fruit.


    
If you are trying to follow the Lord, and study His Word, instead of traditions of men, and have spiritual eyes to see, and ears to hear, then you are among those left that God will rain His Bread upon in these last days. God took care of those who went historically in captivity by Babylon and Assyria, and He is promising the same for those who love Him during this future Babylon 'New World Order' kingdom of Satan. Butter and honey is the food of the prophet, so this is also a hint of the importance of understanding the prophecies of Jesus in the Old Testament and New Testament. If all you do is believe on Jesus, your faith is not proven, because anyone can just believe (and we all must believe on Christ to be saved). The Word of God is your ‘armour’ for the times ahead, and without it, well...you’re going to be ‘shaven naked’.

Isa 7:23   And it shall come to pass in that day, that every place shall be, where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silverlings, it shall even be for briers and thorns.

24   With arrows and with bows shall men come thither; because all the land shall become briers and thorns.

     Again, these ‘briers and thorns’ are the children of Satan, the Kenites. These ‘vines’ are the vineyards of Israel in the spiritual and material sense. This has already happened to a very advanced degree in our day friend. The systems of the Kenite are controlling all the markets and governments
