Morning Morsels 011: Do Not Go Down to Egypt

Turn to Yah, not our oppressors, in time of need.

View Transcript

Shalom, and happy morning to you. We are living in a time where faith in Yah has dwindled to nothing among the inhabitants of this world, including his own people. In fact, the very people who enslaved us are often the first ones we run to for help when times of trouble come upon us. The same wicked people who shake their fists at Yah in open rebellion and defiance are the ones we look to for help; to save us from disaster. We fail to consult Yah in his wisdom, yet we lean heavily on the advice and counsel of the so-called “intellectuals” among the heathen.

But there is a great penalty for those who trust in military might and in the mortal strength of our enemies. Rather than turning to Yah for help, instead we go down to Egypt, and set ourselves apart for destruction. For, it is written:

1 Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help and rely on horses, who trust in chariots because they are many and in horsemen because they are very strong, but do not look to the Pure One of Israel or consult Yah! 2 And yet he is wise and brings disaster; he does not call back his words, but will arise against the house of the evildoers and against the helpers of those who work iniquity. 3 The Egyptians are man, and not Elohim, and their horses are flesh, and not spirit. When Yah stretches out his hand, the helper will stumble, and he who is helped will fall, and they will all perish together.

—Isaiah 31:1 – 3
