FURY OF THE OPPRESSOR

"And you forget the Lord your Maker, who stretched out the heavens and laid the foundations of the earth; you have feared continually every day because of the fury of the oppressor, when he has prepared to destroy. And where is the fury of the oppressor?"

    Isaiah 51:13

God gets angry with those who have Him as Lord, yet fear other mortals and the oppressor from hell.

Where is the fury of the oppressor? Who is He?

All the enemies of our God are crushed like worms beneath our feet. They know that, but sometimes, we forget.

FLESH OR SPIRIT

"For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace."    Romans 8:5-6

Those who seek to fulfill the desires of the flesh (soul) will reap pain and suffering, until they are finished off by death. 
But those who seek to obey the Spirit of God, that is, practice what the Word of the Spirit has inspired them, will enjoy the present and also the eternal salvation that is to come.

Crushed

"For the LORD has called you like a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, like a youthful wife when you were refused' says your God."

Isaiah 54:6

God has used the torments of life to awaken those who are suffering. When you're crushed spiritually, His Voice is more present and His Ears more audible. If your soul is crying in pain now, take this opportunity and say: yes Lord, I want your help!
