“The rebellious children are as good as dead,” says the Lord , “those who make plans without consulting me, who form alliances without consulting my Spirit, and thereby compound their sin...
For these are rebellious people – they are lying children, children unwilling to obey the Lord ’s law. 
They say to the visionaries, 
“See no more visions!” and to the seers, 
“Don’t relate messages to us about what is right! Tell us nice things, relate deceptive messages.... 
For this is what the master, the Lord , the Holy One of Israel says: “If you repented and patiently waited for me, you would be delivered; if you calmly trusted in me you would find strength, but you are unwilling...
The Lord is ready to show you mercy; He sits on his throne, ready to have compassion on you. Indeed, the Lord is a just God; all who wait for him in faith will be blessed...
When he hears your cry of despair, He will indeed show you mercy; when He hears it, He will respond to you.
The sovereign master will give you distress to eat and suffering to drink; but your teachers will no longer be hidden; your eyes will see them. You will hear a word spoken behind you, saying,
“This is the correct way, walk in it,” whether you are heading to the right or the left."
(Isaiah 30:1-3, 9-10, 15, 18-21 NET)
