The day of the Lord (CA)

It is clear from the scripture that the day of the Lord is a day of darkness and judgment. It is associated with woe, howling, vengeance, destruction and especially darkness.
This is a day when sinners will be destroyed and one which will bring the proud low.
It is the end

Isa 2:12 For the day of the Lord of hosts shall be upon every one that is proud and lofty,
and upon every one that is lifted up; and he shall be brought low
Isa 13:6 Howl ye; for the day of the Lord is at hand;
it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty
Isa 13:9 Behold, the day of the Lord cometh,
cruel both with wrath and fierce anger,
to lay the land desolate:
and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it
Isa 34:8 For it is the day of the Lord 's vengeance,
and the year of recompences for the controversy of Zion
Jer 46:10 For this is the day of the Lord God of hosts,
a day of vengeance, that he may avenge him of his adversaries:
and the sword shall devour, and it shall be satiate and made drunk with their blood:
for the Lord God of hosts hath a sacrifice
in the north country by the river Euphrates (Zeph 1:7 calls it a sacrifice as well)
Ezek 30:2-3 Son of man, prophesy and say, Thus saith the Lord God; Howl ye, Woe worth the day! For the day is near, even the day of the Lord is near, a cloudy day; it shall be the time of the heathen
Joel 1:15 Alas for the day! for the day of the Lord is at hand,
and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come
Joel 2:1 Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain:
let all the inhabitants of the land tremble:
for the day of the Lord cometh, for it is nigh at hand;
 A day of darkness and of gloominess,
a day of clouds and of thick darkness,
as the morning spread upon the mountains
Joel 2:11 And the Lord shall utter his voice before his army:
for his camp is very great:
for he is strong that executeth his word:
for the day of the Lord is great and very terrible;
and who can abide it
Joel 2:31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood,
before the great and the terrible day of the Lord come (Quoted Acts 2:20)
Joel 3:14
Amos 5:18-20 Woe unto you that desire the day of the Lord!
to what end is it for you?
the day of the Lord is darkness, and not light.
 As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him;
or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.
 Shall not the day of the Lord be darkness, and not light?
even very dark, and no brightness in it
Obad 1:15
Zeph 1:7 Hold thy peace at the presence of the Lord God:
for the day of the Lord is at hand:
for the Lord hath prepared a sacrifice,
he hath bid his guests
(Zeph 1:14, 18, 2:2, 3; Zech 14:1)
Mal 4:5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet
before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord
1Thess 5:2 and 2Pet 3:10 the day of the Lord comes as a thief in the night

Clearly the day of the Lord is a day to be missed; The reason that that day will not overtake the redeemed as a thief in the night is that we are not appointed to wrath, but to salvation.
