Sensuality used to lure people away from Jesus Christ, leading to desolation.

Isaiah 3:16-4:1

“Moreover the Lord says: “Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with outstretched necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, making a jingling with their feet, therefore the Lord will strike with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the Lord will uncover their secret parts.” Isaiah 3:16-17

Those verses describe the behavior of flirtatious females within Israel who purposely attract attention to their sensual/sexual attributes. The result of that draws attention to carnal desires and away from the Spirit of God. As a result, the Lord brings His judgment against them by exposing their most intimate parts and making their attractiveness ugly.

• The females are haughty. They are arrogant with disdain against God, Jesus, and the presence of the Holy Spirit as they flaunt their sensual attractiveness.
• They walk with outstretched necks and wanton eyes. Outstretched necks is to be snubbish, looking down on others, defiant, conceit, etc. Wanton eyes relates to flirtatious looks, sensually desirous, etc. The females are rather snubbish [somewhat put-offish] while at the same time using the eyes to entice with sensual innuendos.
• Walking and mincing as they go. Mincing is to move, walk, or speak in a dainty and unnatural manner, similar to skipping or quick flirtatious words. The females walk and speak daintily as they pass by others somewhat quickly to arouse sensual desires or aggression.
• Making a jingling with their feet: That is to irresistibly attract attention to the flirtatious sensual nature of the females. That is what the women are doing.
• The Lord will strike with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion. The women may feel like princesses now, but the Lord will turn their “royalty” into a scar and ugly blemish. Turning people to the desires of the flesh and away from God turns relationships ugly, and those “princesses” will be despised.
• The Lord will uncover their secret parts. We know the consequences when carnal males are denied the promises of sensual flirtation, innuendos, and sexual gratification. They may feel they are being teased and led-on, building within them frustration, anger, and aggression. Lawlessness involving sexual crimes is the result, and is a consequence of rejecting the Spirit, God, and Jesus Christ. In that sense, the private parts of women are exposed. Also, uncovering the secret parts is to reveal the motivation of the women who purposely use sensual enticement to draw people away from living for God through Jesus Christ. Men quickly learn their secrets and avoid them.

The mode of operation of the beast that has power over physiology is to use women to arouse carnal desires. The women of Israel are not immune to being used by the beast in that way, and even welcomes the beast to live and speak through them. By arousing carnal desires through sensual/sexual enticement, blinders are put on the focus of the Spirit. People begin to reject God, discard Jesus Christ, and oppose the presence of the Holy Spirit. By focusing attention on the desires of the flesh, people become more prone to welcome the beast that gives them what to speak, do, think, and feel. The beast puts focus on physical aspects to give breath/life to the image of the beast by speaking and living through people everywhere. By what they are given to say and do, people are being groomed to the mark, name, and number of the beast.

“In that day the Lord will take away the finery: The jingling anklets, the scarves, and the crescents; The pendants, the bracelets, and the veils; The headdresses, the leg ornaments, and the headbands; The perfume boxes, the charms, and the rings; The nose jewels, the festal apparel, and the mantles; The outer garments, the purses, and the mirrors; The fine linen, the turbans, and the robes.” Isaiah 3:18-23

The Lord has taken away the attractiveness of females that use their sensuality to lure people into carnal desires and away from God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. Even today, we see how the sweet spirit of females is being turned to bitterness to make them seem very contrary to being flirtatious. The goodness of people is being turned to evilness as “good girls” are far from reality. The Lord also takes away the finery of women by enabling people to see through their use of sensual attractiveness to arouse carnal and aggressive behaviors. With that, beauty pageants are even becoming less and less about physical attractiveness, sensuality/sexuality. At the same time, less and less people embrace the beauty and sweetness of the presence of the Holy Spirit, more and more people reject Jesus Christ, and less and less believe in God. The beauty of Holiness is becoming scarce.

“And so it will be: Instead of a sweet smell there will be a stench; Instead of a sash, a rope; Instead of well-set hair, baldness; Instead of a rich robe, a girding of sackcloth; And branding instead of beauty. Your men will fall by the sword, and your mighty in the war.” Isaiah 3:24-25

• Your men will fall by the sword, and your mighty in the war. One reason that the sensuality of women is used by the beast that has power over physiology is to create warriors. Those warriors are added to the community culture to stand for the beast that gives them what to speak, do, think, and say. They make war against belief in God, fight against the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and wages war against the presence of the Holy Spirit. The day of the Lord is coming when the global government, its global culture [people of war] will be destroyed. This present heaven and earth passes away and a new heaven and earth is created for the peacemakers who live for God through Jesus Christ.
• And branding instead of beauty. Branding refers to scarring, like slaves branded by a hot iron, and the sensual/sexual attractiveness of females will be marred. That branding relates to the beast exerting its ownership over the physiology of people. Because they reject God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit, they are given to the beast. Flirtatious, sexual, and sensual attraction is removed as the beast brands people what to feel what to say, what to do, and what to think.
• Instead of a rich robe, a girding of sackcloth. The “rich robes” refer to the type of clothing used to entice sensual desires. The girding of sackcloth would be like dressing in burlap bags. This also refers to a time when the rich robes of the Holy Spirit will be removed as the global population is girded in the sadness of lawlessness, chaos, and tribulation.
• Instead of well-set hair, baldness. Females use various hairstyles to solicit carnal sensual desires in males. Those attractive hairstyles will be turned to baldness. As we see today, attractive hairstyles seem to be disappearing as women opt for short hair, shaven heads, spiked hair, braided hair, hair with written words, weirdly colored hair, etc. Baldness can be interpreted quite literally, as in the First Plague of Revelations 16:2 loathsome boils cover the body, which would require shaven heads to try to treat them medically, “So the first went and poured out his bowl upon the earth, and a foul and loathsome sore came upon the [people] who had the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image.” Also in the following verse, “Their flesh will dissolve while they stand on their feet, their eyes will dissolve in their sockets, and their tongues will dissolve in their mouths.” Zechariah 14:12 That certainly sounds like something that would make anyone’s hair fall out.
• Instead of a sweet smell there will be a stench. The perfumes and sweet odors employed to entice people away from the Lord will be turned to stench. One way that happens is when males realize that women are using their attractiveness to lure them down a path of destructiveness. Their sweet, enticing, flirtatious, and appealing sensuality will be interpreted as a stench to stay far away from. That sweet smell will also turn to stench when festering boils cover their body and their flesh dissolves while standing on their feet [as described in the paragraph above]. The sweetness of the Holy Spirit is disappearing as a foul smelling spirit is overtaking the global population.
• Instead of a sash, a rope. We can envision females wearing ropes to cover themselves instead of having a sensual and revealing sash. When the purpose is to arouse the pursuit of carnal desires, clothing that tease, mince, and hint at sexuality is preferred over leaving nothing to the imagination. Instead of a provocative sash, they will be dressed in an unimaginative rope. Being dressed in nothing but a rope also refers to the motive of the females being fully exposed. That motive being to bring to surface carnal desires and aggression to serve the purpose of the beast that gives people what to do, say, think, and feel. They want to arouse people against God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit.

“Her gates will lament and mourn, and she being desolate will sit on the ground.” Isaiah 3:26

The gates are the doors leading into the presence of the Spirit by believing in Jesus Christ. Our Lord Jesus is the Door, “I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.” John 10:9 The females that use sensual enticements to lead people away from the Door, will have their own gates closed, meaning no one will want them. She will lament and mourn because no one desires her. Those females are thieves that rob, kill, and destroy from the temple of God, our body as the home of the Holy Spirit, “The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy.” John 10:10

When the sensual attractiveness of the malicious females are ignored and not wanted, she will be desolate and sit on the ground. No more mincing, flirting, and arousing sensual passions. She will be sitting in the desolation of her own making. Those females create the desolation that comes as the hearts and souls of people are being enticed away from God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. That desolation comes as the spirit and soul are emptied of the Holy Spirit and filled with carnal pursuits. Without the Holy Spirit, lawlessness comes because the Holy Spirit is He who restrains lawlessness. That lawlessness fills the world, “For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming.” 2 Thessalonians 2:6-8 Click here for a post on the lawless one.

The global government depends on spiritual corruption to establish its global culture. They require people to live in the natural realm of physiology to serve the beast that has power over physiology. That beast governs through people by giving them what to speak, do, think, and feel. The day of the Lord is coming and the power over physiology will be broken in the Fifth Plague of Revelations of 16:10-11, and the global culture of the beast will sit desolate on the ground.

“And in that day seven women will take hold of one man, saying, “We will eat our own food and wear our own apparel;
Only let us be called by your name, to take away our reproach.” Isaiah 4:1

The females once using sensual enticement to lure people into carnal pursuits and away from God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are now seeking a man, as scarce as what “men” are at that time. They will be lucky to find one man who will want anything to do with them, based on the females’ past malicious behaviors. The females are so desperate that they promise not to ask anything from the men and to provide for themselves. They only want the disdain they brought upon themselves to be taken away. This will happen when the power center of the beast is destroyed and the beast can no longer empower them nor have any influence or power through them. That happens in the Fifth Plague of Revelations 16:10-11.

“O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing! See! Your house is left to you desolate; for I say to you, you shall see Me no more till you say, ‘Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!’” Matthew 23:37-39

“….to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan’s so-called deep secrets,“
‘I will not impose any other burden on you, except to hold on to what you have until I come.’”
“I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.”
