Isaiah 35:1-3 The entirety of Isaiah chapter thirty-five is about God’s blessings on His people concerning the Second Coming of Christ as well as the millennial reign of Christ on earth. Specific blessings on Israel that are prophesied here (as well as in other passages we cite) began to fulfilled in 1948. God continues to bring these to pass as is empirically obvious!

Isaiah 34:8-17 Isaiah tells of the specific fearful manifestations of God’s wrath on the world. The nation of Edom, an Old Testament enemy of Israel, is used an as example of both an historic in-time judgment that, per prophecy, never recovered, as well as a symbol of the mind-blowing extent of the worldwide destruction. Isaiah tells of a place where only desert animals and possibly demons will dwell. Isaiah also challenges us to check God’s prophetic word for its inimitable accuracy when these things come to pass.

Isaiah 34:1-7 The Lord’s wrath, indignation, and judgment are poured out on all the nations and armies of the world, except Israel. This prophecy is clearly in a Second Coming of Christ context with clear ties to prophetic passages in the book of Revelation. The graphic description of this judgment reveals God’s anger as well as the warning for Isaiah’s readers to repent and turn to God!

Isaiah | Lesson 23: The City of Destruction Versus the Desire of the Righteous. 33:00

9 weeks ago33:00

33:00

Isaiah 26:5-10 Isaiah gives us a general description of the cities on which God brings judgment. These cities are marked by idolatry (crass or otherwise), greed, materialism, oppression, wickedness, violence, and pride, among other sins. The inhabitants of the wicked cities may think themselves unassailable, but God is all-powerful and unstoppable and easily accomplishes His will. Isaiah also tells us about the desire of the righteous which we break down into five points. The question we pose is, do those desires represent our desires today?

Isaiah 26:1-4 In the City God in the future, when Jesus is reigning on earth, only the righteous will be able to enter. God's people will enjoy perfect peace, absolute security, and the close presence of God "our everlasting rock." The qualifiers are that those who would enter the City of God must be righteous and faithful, steadfast of mind and trusting wholly in the Lord. We note that there are a number of things we sometimes may trust in during this life (some perhaps seemingly innocent, some not), but ultimately we must substitute nothing for Christ, but "trust in Yahweh forever."

Isaiah | Lesson 21: Satan's Five-Prong Defiance of God 30:00

11 weeks ago30:00

30:00

Isaiah 14:13-19 In this lesson we look directly at Satan's five defiant statements of "I will." These are directed in rebellion at God's authority and sovereignty, and they lead to the devil's downfall. This rebellion results in Satan being cast out of heaven and ultimately results in his eternal doom in the Lake of Fire. This speaks to our wise willingness to obey God in all things! We also see antithetical categorical parallels between Jesus and the devil as well as five fundamental truths about Satan's existence.

Isaiah 14:9-12 After the return of Jesus Christ, Satan will be thrown into Sheol/Hades in defeat, possibly indicating here the millennial (1,000 year) imprisonment of the devil. Those already in Sheol will be amazed and stunned, but not fearful, at his presence there. We look at some practical implications NOW in this life on earth for believers at not having to live under the power and authority of Satan even though, for now, he is still active and present.

Isaiah 14:1-8 Isaiah begins chapter fourteen with a prophecy of a still-future time of prosperity and peace for Israel; probably a millennial reference. The prophet then addresses the King of Babylon, who is a symbol of Satan. The extent of the power and influence of this evil king, as well as future circumstances in a place of punishment, show that this chapter goes far beyond describing a mere human king.

Isaiah 11:2-5 The Holy Spirit will rest on the prophesied Messiah in a seven-fold sense. There is a permanence in the residing of the Spirit on Messiah. Out of that presence of the Holy Spirit come wisdom, understanding, counsel, strength, knowledge of the whole will of God, and the reverent love and respect to fully carry out the will of God the Father.

Isaiah 6:8-13 In a classic and iconic scriptural passage, God (actually the whole Trinity is speaking) asks, “who will go for Us?” Isaiah’s willing response of obedience is a powerful example to all believers! Specifically here, we recognize that God sends ALL of us to represent Him in this world. The question is not, “Am I sent?” The question is, “to whom is God sending me?” Isaiah is commissioned by the Lord for his ministry. The Lord gives a longterm prophecy about wrath, sin, and repentance, yet with a glimmer of hope for the faithful.
