Isaiah 16

In December of 2006 God had given me a vision of my heart, a battlefield strewn with gaping holes. We must be very careful that we not let pride enter into our life. Life can change in an instant. Life, and all its choices, leaves us with wounds that can only be filled by Jesus. We must be willing to admit our weaknesses and ask Him for His loving touch in our life. Jesus Christ was sent to heal the brokenhearted and to set the prisoners free. Don't let pride become your god and stop you from admitting defeat and asking for help from the Maker of your soul. As a people or as a nation without Him we will not be healed. We are in a battle for our souls. It is the choice between life and death….. Choose life.

We have heard of the pride of Moab—

He is very proud—

Of his haughtiness and his pride and his wrath;

But his lies shall not be so.

7 Therefore Moab shall wail for Moab;

Everyone shall wail.

For the foundations of Kir Hareseth you shall mourn;

Surely they are stricken.

8 For the fields of Heshbon languish,

And the vine of Sibmah;

The lords of the nations have broken down its choice plants,

Which have reached to Jazer

And wandered through the wilderness.

Her branches are stretched out,

They are gone over the sea.

9 Therefore I will bewail the vine of Sibmah,

With the weeping of Jazer;

I will drench you with my tears,

O Heshbon and Elealeh;

For battle cries have fallen

Over your summer fruits and your harvest.

10 Gladness is taken away,

And joy from the plentiful field;

In the vineyards there will be no singing,

Nor will there be shouting;

No treaders will tread out wine in the presses;

I have made their shouting cease.

11 Therefore my heart shall resound like a harp for Moab,

And my inner being for Kir Heres.

12 And it shall come to pass,

When it is seen that Moab is weary on the high place,

That he will come to his sanctuary to pray;

But he will not prevail.

13 This is the word which the Lord has spoken concerning Moab since that time. 14 But now the Lord has spoken, saying, "Within three years, as the years of a hired man, the glory of Moab will be despised with all that great multitude, and the remnant will be very small and feeble."

The NKJV Study Bible says this: Pride is a regular target of the Lord's judgment.
Isaiah the prophet expresses his determination to one day rejoice over Moab. This is a promise of its future restoration. As long as the people worshiped false gods, they would be doomed to pain, judgment, and recurring trouble.
