For the LORD of hosts will have a day of reckoning

Against everyone who is proud and lofty

And against everyone who is lifted up,

That he may be abased.

. . .

The pride of man will be humbled

And the loftiness of men will be abased;

And the LORD alone will be exalted in that day[.]

— Isaiah 2:12, 17a NAS

The Lord led me to it through a search on the word “exalted.”

I’m going to copy you and search “reckoning”.

Ok, I did and the first one has me laughing at God’s sense of humor! 2 Kings 22- the ORIGINAL DOGE, just as little

8 year old, JUST and UPRIGHT King Josiah is tearing all the idols down and building a … (wait for it…)WALL! 😝💕

LOL love this! God’s sense of humor is the best.

I’m also a fan of Psalm 37:13 “The Lord laughs at [the wicked], for He sees that their own day [of defeat] is coming.” (AMPC)

One of my favorite stories. In fact, years ago I wrote a post about Josiah and reposted on my stack more recently. It’s called “The Beating of Drums.” It does not have a paywall.

The other "e" word would be "ego".

Interesting post from the Breggins today. Wonderful God-centered people.

From that post - "RFK Jr. must be removed from office immediately, before he can cause further damage!" Agreed, but it will never happen. Not as long as Susie Wiles runs the show.

A nothing burger right now. Lots of red flags with the trump term so far. This was the biggest. Market possibly happy the trump/elon news is out, as the market does not like uncertainty.

God is good! I needed a verse to share with one of my kids caught up in a difficult situation, and your post was the first comment. Thank you Janice, and thank you Lord. It’s just what was needed.

And as a side note, the NASB is in my opinion, the most accurate and beautiful translation ever undertaken. It made me very happy to see it acknowledged as the source of your shared scriptures. 👍🏻😊

The day of reckoning was the day our Lord was crucified. The Judge of all was judged for all.

2 Corinthians 5:19

Where sin abounds, grace much more...all will be well. 1 Timothy 4:10

As always, the Abrahamo-Platonists demand sniveling and abasement. Anything else is 'pride' and very bad.
