STUDYING AND UNDERSTANDING THE BIBLE – PART 437
Isaiah Chapter 48 concluded…
From verses 12 to 15, Prophet Isaiah reiterates the need for us to consider how mighty God is in creating the universe and making everything obey His order.
With this same power, He also determined the end from the beginning and also repeated how God determined Cyrus’s assignment even before he was born.
Thereafter, from verses 16 to 22, Isaiah continues to educate his audience about the need for them to walk with God and pay attention to His instructions.
Let’s read some verses…
Isaiah 48:17-19 TPT
This is what Yahweh, your Kinsman-Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel says: “I am Yahweh, your God. I am the One who teaches you how to succeed and who leads you step by step in the way you should go.
[18] If only you had listened to my commands, then peace would have flowed like a river for you and success would wash over you like waves of the sea.
[19] Your children would have multiplied to become like the sand of the seashore and your descendants like grains of sand. There would be no end of them, and I would not cut them off.”
The above is to prove to you that the disaster that befell the Jews were actually caused by their disobedience and stubborn heart and not by God.
If they had listened to God’s instructions, everything would have been peaceful with them and their whole world would have been filled with everlasting joy.
At the end of the day, everything still boils down to the choice of accepting or rejecting God’s offer of Salvation.
You will now understand why Apostle Paul summarises the purpose of the Scripture to Timothy in just 3 verses…
Let’s read…
2 Timothy 3:15-17
[15]And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
[16]All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
[17]That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
To be continued…Praise God.
