Truth vs. Twisting: Isaiah 5, Leviathan, and Courage for the Remnant | KIB 502
Kingdom Intelligence Briefing
Description
“Woe to those who call evil good and good evil…” (Isaiah 5:20, ESV). In Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Episode 502, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake address today’s climate of fear, the cultural normalization of darkness (especially around Halloween), and the Leviathan spirit that twists truth and communication. From Isaiah 5’s “wild grapes” to Jesus’ teaching on the vineyard, we explore how societies—and even churches—descend into madness when they reject God’s covenant, and how the remnant can stand firm in humility, prayer, and truth.
Key Scriptures (ESV):
- Isaiah 5:1–7, 20 — Wild grapes & calling evil good
- 2 Timothy 1:7 — “God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.”
- John 15:5 — “I am the vine; you are the branches…”
What you’ll gain: biblical clarity on fear vs. faith, how to recognize Leviathan’s twisting, practical steps for spiritual warfare, and hope that God is extending a “loop of mercy” for preparation and harvest.
