Surely the arm of the LORD is not too short to save,
nor his ear too dull to hear.
But your iniquities have separated you from your God;
your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear.
For your hands are stained with blood, your fingers with guilt.
Your lips have spoken lies, and your tongue mutters wicked things.
No one calls for justice; no one pleads his case with integrity.
They rely on empty arguments and speak lies;
they conceive trouble and give birth to evil. - Is. 59:1-4
It's not too late to repent. To change our ways. To start trusting in the Lord God more than we do our ourselves, our prosperity, our possessions, or our nation. God can hear a cry of repentance above all the other clamors of this age. He has seen, he can hear and he will repay.
According to what they have done, so will he repay
wrath to his enemies and retribution to his foes;
he will repay the islands their due.
From the west, men will fear the name of the LORD,
and from the rising of the sun, they will revere his glory
For he will come like a pent-up flood
that the breath of the LORD drives along.
"The Redeemer will come to Zion,
to those in Jacob who repent of their sins,"
declares the LORD. - Isaiah 59:18-20
