Isaiah reminds us that God used their enemies to punish His people.  Then He brought the enemies to justice.  This seems unfair on the part of God.  They were only doing what God allowed them to do.  However, their motives were wicked to begin with.  God is never unfair but He is just!

Oh, so very much in today’s reading that pertain to the last days.

“…dead bodies will send up a stench; the mountains will be soaked with their blood.”
(Armageddon)

Stars dissolved, sky rolled up like a scroll, starry host will fall…all preparations for the new heaven and the new earth. Throughout the entire Bible are many other references.
Rev 6:14
The sky receded like a scroll, rolling up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place.
2 Pet 3:12
as you look forward to the day of God and speed its coming. That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat.

"This is the plan determined for the whole world, !"   Eventually the whole earth will be destroyed.
 

 "...destroyed in the night!"  (the day long Day of the Lord)

 See the book, These Last Days for additional information.
 

There is a reference in today's reading about turning to the Holy One of Israel and not looking to the altars (the high places) and Asherah poles.  

Turn back to God and His Holy Days, His feast and festivals and turn away from pagan holidays.  God says the pagan practices of worship are to no avail.  Of course whenever people worship pagan gods they are worshiping in vain.  But, even whenever God's people worship Him on the altars of paganism, their worship of Him is in vain.

There is also a reference to "...some gleanings will remain..."

There will be some in the land who will remain, who will be the remnant.

Then we have this great promise.
Isa 16:5
In love a throne will be established; in faithfulness a man will sit on it-- one from the house of David-- one who in judging seeks justice and speeds the cause of righteousness.

And just in case we wonder who is in control…
Isa 14:24
The LORD Almighty has sworn, "Surely, as I have planned, so it will be, and as I have purposed, so it will stand.

What comfort! He is the One in control!
