Isaiah 64 - 66 (1st August) - Kelvin

Isaiah 64 -66

The chapters cover God's response to the people.

During this time, the Word of God, as proclaimed by Isaiah, had been ignored and now God spoke through him these pitiful words:

"I have spread out My hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts" (Isaiah 65:2).

Although God had reached out to them, they had not responded to Him. They had gone their own ways.

The Lord continued: "I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears (dread, terrors) upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spoke, they did not hear: but they did evil before Mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not" (66:4).

God also mention something to the small minority who remained faithful then, as well as to the minority of faithful today that He will bless and ensure that peace will flow to you like a river.(Isaiah 66:5-12)

Thus, people, God is a God who has always been present throughout the centuries and we may not be born to see the past but in our modern world today, God is still present! Remain in Him and He will remain in you.
