Remember...in the old testament times, God didn't send prophets to promise health, wealth and success, but to warn about the wrath of God that was going to fall upon them.

Finally...... we have ....
📜Isaiah 42:1-25
1
Behold, My ]Servant, whom I uphold; My Chosen One in whom My soul delights. I have put My Spirit upon Him; He will bring forth justice to the nations.
2
“He will not call out or shout aloud, Nor make His voice heard in the street.
3
“A broken reed He will not break [off] And a dimly burning wick He will not extinguish [He will not harm those who are weak and suffering]; He will faithfully bring forth justice.
4
“He will not be disheartened
or crushed [in spirit];
[He will persevere] until He has
established justice on the earth; And the coastlands will wait expectantly for His law.”
5
This is what God the Lord says,
He who created the heavens and stretched them out,
Who spread out the earth and its produce, Who gives breath
to the people on it And spirit to those who walk in it !
6
“I am the Lord, I have
called You (the Messiah)
in righteousness
[for a righteous purpose],
I will also take You by the hand and keep watch over You,
And I will appoint You as a covenant to the people [Israel],
As a light to the nations (Gentiles),
7
To open the eyes of the blind,
To bring out prisoners from the
dungeon And those who sit in darkness from the prison.
8
“I am the Lord, that is My Name; My glory I will not give to another, Nor My praise to carved idols.
9
“Indeed, the former things
have come to pass, Now I declare new things;
Before they spring forth I proclaim them to you.”
10
Sing to the Lord a new song,
Sing His praise from the end
of the earth! You who go down to the sea, and all that is in it,
You islands and coastlands, and those who inhabit
them [sing His praise]!
11
Let the wilderness and its cities lift up their voices,
The villages where Kedar lives.
Let the inhabitants of [c]Sela shout for joy,Let them shout joyfully from the tops of the mountains.
12
Let them give glory to the Lord
And declare His praise in the
islands and coastlands.
13
The Lord will go forth like a warrior, He will stir up His zeal like a man of war; He will shout out, yes, He will raise a war cry. He will prevail [mightily] against His enemies.
The Blindness of the People
14
“I [the Lord] have been silent for a long time, I have been still and restrained Myself. Now I will moan like a woman in labor, I will both gasp and pant.
15
“I will lay waste the mountains and hills And wither all their vegetation; I will turn the rivers into coastlands And dry up the ponds.
16
“I will lead the blind by a
way they do not know;
I will guide them in paths
that they do not know.
I will make darkness
into light before them
And rugged places into
plains. These things I will do [for them], And I will not leave them abandoned or undone.”
17
Those who trust in carved
idols will be turned back,
And utterly put to shame,
Who say to cast images,
“You are our gods.”
18
Hear, you deaf! And look, you blind, that you may see.
19
Who is blind but
My servant [Israel],
Or deaf like My
messenger whom
I send? Who is blind
like the one who is at peace with Me
[in a covenant
relationship], Or so
blind as the
servant of the Lord?
20
You have seen many things, but you do not observe them;
Your ears are open, but no one hears.
21
The Lord was pleased
for His righteousness’
sake To make the law
great and prove to
be glorious.
22
But this is a people
despoiled and plundered;
All of them are trapped
in holes, Or are
hidden away in prisons.
They have become a
prey with no
one to rescue
them, And a spoil,
with no one to say,
“Give them back!”
23
Who among you will listen to this? Who will listen and pay attention in the time to come?
24
Who gave up Jacob
[the kingdom of
Judah] for spoil,
and [the kingdom of]
Israel to the plunderers ?
Was it not the Lord,
He against whom we
[of Judah] have sinned,
And in whose ways
they [of Israel]
were unwilling to
walk, And whose
law and teaching
they did not obey?
25
Therefore He poured
out on Israel the
heat of His anger
And the fierceness of battle;
And engulfed him in fire,
Yet he did not recognize
[the lesson of
repentance which
the Assyrian conquest
was intended to teach];It burned him, but
he did not take it to heart.

📜 Isaiah 43:1-28
Israel Redeemed
43:1-28 But now, this is what the Lord,
your Creator says, O Jacob,
And He who formed you, O Israel,
“Do not fear, for I have redeemed you
[from captivity]; I have called you by name;
you are Mine!
2
“When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;And through the rivers,
they will not overwhelm you.
When you walk through fire,
you will not be scorched,
Nor will the flame burn you.
3
“For I am the Lord your God,
The Holy One of Israel, your Savior;
I have given Egypt [to the Babylonians]
as your ransom,
Cush (ancient Ethiopia) and
Seba [its province] in exchange for you.
4
“Because you are precious in My sight,
You are honored and I love you,
I will give other men in return for you and
other peoples in exchange for your life.
5
“Do not fear, for I am with you;
I will bring your offspring from the east
[where they are scattered],
And gather you from the west.
6
“I will say to the north, ‘Give them up!’
And to the south, ‘Do not hold them back.’
Bring My sons from far way
And My daughters from the ends of the earth,
7
Everyone who is called by My Name,
Whom I have created for My glory,
Whom I have formed, even whom I have made.”
Israel Is God’s Witness
8
Bring out the people who are blind,
even though they have eyes,
And the deaf, even though
they have ears.
9
All the nations have
gathered together
So that the peoples
may be assembled.
Who among them
(the idolaters)
can predict this
[that Judah would return
from captivity]
And proclaim to us the
former events?
Let them provide their
witnesses so that they
may be justified,
Or let them hear
and say [in acknowledgement],
“It is the truth.”
10
“You are My witnesses,” declares the Lord,
“And My servant whom I have chosen,
That you may know and believe Me
And understand that I am He.
Before Me there was no God formed,
And there will be none after Me.
11
“I, [only] I, am the Lord,
And there is no Savior besides Me.
12
“I have declared [the future]
and save [the nation]
and proclaimed [that I am God],
And there was no strange (alien)
god among you;
Therefore you are My witnesses
[among the pagans],”
declares the Lord,
“That I am God.
13
“Even from eternity I am He,
And there is no one who can rescue from My hand;
I act, and who can revoke or reverse it?”
Babylon to Be Destroyed
14 This is what the Lord your Redeemer,
the Holy One of Israel says,
“For your sake I have sent [one]
to Babylon, And I will bring down all of them
as fugitives, Even the Chaldeans [who reign in
Babylon], into the ships [b]over which they rejoiced.
15
“I am the Lord, your Holy One,
The Creator of Israel, your King.”
16 This is what the Lord says,
He who makes a way through the sea
And a path through the mighty waters,
17
He who brings out the chariot and the horse,
The army and the mighty warrior,
(They will lie down together, they will
not rise again; They have been extinguished,
they have been put out like a lamp’s wick):
18
“Do not remember the former things,
Or ponder the things of the past.
19
“Listen carefully, I am about to do a new thing,
Now it will spring forth;
Will you not be aware of it?
I will even put a road in the wilderness,
Rivers in the desert.
20
“The beasts of the field will honor Me,
Jackals and ostriches,
Because I have given waters in the wilderness
And rivers in the desert,
To give drink to My people, My chosen
21
“The people whom I formed for Myself
Will make known My praise.
The Shortcomings of Israel
22
“Yet you have not called on Me [in prayer and worship], O Jacob;
But you have grown weary of Me, O Israel.
23
“You have not brought Me your sheep or
goats for your burnt offerings,
Nor honored Me with your sacrifices.
I have not burdened you with offerings,
Nor wearied you with [demands for offerings of]
incense.
24
“You have not bought Me sweet cane with money,
Nor have you filled Me with the fat of your sacrifices;
But you have burdened Me with your sins,
You have wearied Me with your wickedness.
25
“I, only I, am He who wipes out your
transgressions for My own sake,
And I will not remember your sins.
26
“[Remind Me [of your merits

case together; State your position,

27
“Your first father [Jacob] sinned,
And your spokesmen

And I will consign Jacob to destruction and

2
This is what the Lord who made you
And formed you from the womb, who
will help you says,
‘Fear not, O Jacob My servant;
And Jeshurun (Israel, the upright one)

Yes, let him confront Me,
Since I established the people of antiquity.

8
‘Do not tremble nor be afraid [of the violent
upheavals to come];
Have I not long ago proclaimed it

And you are My witnesses.
Is there a God besides Me?
There is no other Rock;
I know of none.’”
The Folly of Idolatry
9 All who make carved idols are nothing. Their precious objects are worthless [to them], and their own witnesses (worshipers) fail to see or know, so that they will be put to shame. 10 Who has made a god or cast an idol which is profitable for nothing? 11 In fact, all his companions will be put to shame, for the craftsmen themselves are mere men. Let them all assemble, let them stand up, let them be terrified, let them together be put to shame.
12 The ironsmith shapes iron and uses a chisel and works it over the coals. He forms the [idol’s] core with hammers and works it with his strong arm. He also becomes hungry and his strength fails; he drinks no water and grows tired. 13 The carpenter stretches out a measuring line, he marks out the shape [of the idol] with red chalk; he works it with planes and outlines it with the compass; and he makes it like the form of a man, like the beauty of man, that it may sit in a house. 14 He cuts cedars for himself, and takes a cypress or an oak and lets it grow strong for himself among the trees of the forest. He plants a fir, and the rain nourishes it. 15 Then it becomes fuel for a man to burn, so he takes one of them and warms himself; he also kindles a fire to bake bread. He also makes a god [from the same wood] and worships it. He makes it into a carved idol [with his own hands] and falls down and worships it! 16 He burns half of the wood in the fire; over this half he [cooks and] eats meat, he roasts meat and is satisfied. Also he warms himself and says, “Aha! I am warm, I have seen the fire.” 17 But from what is left of the wood he makes a god, his carved idol. He falls down before it, he worships it and prays to it and says, “Save me, for you are my god.” 18 They do not know, nor do they understand, for God has muddied their eyes so that they cannot see, and their hearts (minds) as well so that they cannot understand. 19 No one remembers, nor has knowledge and understanding [enough] to say [to himself], “I have burned half of this log in the fire, and also baked bread on its coals and have roasted meat and eaten it. Then I make the rest of it into an repulsive thing [to God]; I bow down [to worship] before a block of wood!” 20 That kind of man (the idolater) feeds on ashes [and is satisfied with ashes]! A deceived mind has led him astray, so that he cannot save himself, or ask, “Is this thing [that I am holding] in my right hand not a lie?”
God Forgives and Redeems
“Remember [the foolishness of] these things, O Jacob
And Israel, for you are My servant!
I formed you, you are My servant;
O Israel, you will not be forgotten by Me.
22
“I have wiped out your transgressions like a thick cloud
And your sins like a heavy mist.
Return to Me, for I have redeemed you.”
23
Shout for joy, O heavens, for the Lord has done it!
Shout in triumph, you depths of the earth;
Break forth into jubilant rejoicing, you mountains,
O forest, and every tree in it!
For the Lord has redeemed Jacob,
And He shows His glory in Israel.
24 For the Lord, your Redeemer, and He who
formed you from the womb says this,
“I am the Lord, Maker of all things,
Who alone stretches out the heavens,
Who spreads out the earth by Myself,
25
Frustrating the signs and confounding the omens of boasters (false prophets),
Making fools out of [b]fortune-tellers,
Counteracting the wise
And making their knowledge ridiculous,
26
Confirming the word of His servant
And carrying out the plan of His messengers.
It is I who says of Jerusalem, ‘She shall [again] be inhabited!’
And of the cities of Judah, ‘They shall [again] be built.’
And I will raise up and restore her ruins.
27
“It is I who says to the deep, ‘Be dried up!’
And I will make your rivers dry.
28
“It is I who says of Cyrus, ‘He is My shepherd (ruler),
And he will carry out all that I desire—’
Saying of Jerusalem, ‘She shall [again] be built,’
And of the temple, ‘Your foundation shall [again] be laid.’”

He also becomes hungry and his strength fails; he drinks no water and grows tired. 13 The carpenter stretches out a measuring line, he marks out the shape [of the idol] with red chalk; he works it with planes and outlines it with the compass; and he makes it like the form of a man, like the beauty of man, that it may sit in a house. 14 He cuts cedars for himself, and takes a cypress or an oak and lets it grow strong for himself among the trees of the forest. He plants a fir, and the rain nourishes it. 15 Then it becomes fuel for a man to burn, so he takes one of them and warms himself; he also kindles a fire to bake bread. He also makes a god [from the same wood] and worships it. He makes it into a carved idol [with his own hands] and falls down and worships it! 16 He burns half of the wood in the fire; over this half he [cooks and] eats meat, he roasts meat and is satisfied. Also he warms himself and says, “Aha! I am warm, I have seen the fire.” 17 But from what is left of the wood he makes a god, his carved idol. He falls down before it, he worships it and prays to it and says, “Save me, for you are my god.” 18 They do not know, nor do they understand, for God has muddied their eyes so that they cannot see, and their hearts (minds) as well so that they cannot understand. 19 No one remembers, nor has knowledge and understanding [enough] to say [to himself], “I have burned half of this log in the fire, and also baked bread on its coals and have roasted meat and eaten it. Then I make the rest of it into an repulsive thing [to God]; I bow down [to worship] before a block of wood!” 20 That kind of man (the idolater) feeds on ashes [and is satisfied with ashes]! A deceived mind has led him astray, so that he cannot save himself, or ask, “Is this thing [that I am holding] in my right hand not a lie?”
God Forgives and Redeems
“Remember [the foolishness of] these things, O Jacob
And Israel, for you are My servant!
I formed you, you are My servant;
O Israel, you will not be forgotten by Me.
22
“I have wiped out your transgressions like a thick cloud
And your sins like a heavy mist.
Return to Me, for I have redeemed you.”
23
Shout for joy, O heavens, for the Lord has done it!
Shout in triumph, you depths of the earth;
Break forth into jubilant rejoicing, you mountains,
O forest, and every tree in it!
For the Lord has redeemed Jacob,
And He shows His glory in Israel.
24 For the Lord, your Redeemer, and He who
formed you from the womb says this,
“I am the Lord, Maker of all things,
Who alone stretches out the heavens,
Who spreads out the earth by Myself,
25
Frustrating the signs and confounding the omens of boasters (false prophets),
Making fools out of [b]fortune-tellers,
Counteracting the wise
And making their knowledge ridiculous,
26
Confirming the word of His servant
And carrying out the plan of His messengers.
It is I who says of Jerusalem, ‘She shall [again] be inhabited!’
And of the cities of Judah, ‘They shall [again] be built.’
And I will raise up and restore her ruins.
27
“It is I who says to the deep, ‘Be dried up!’
And I will make your rivers dry.

“It is I who says of Cyrus, ‘He is My shepherd (ruler),

Finally...... we have ....
📜Isaiah 42:1-25
1
Behold, My ]Servant, whom I uphold; My Chosen One in whom My soul delights. I have put My Spirit upon Him; He will bring forth justice to the nations.
2
“He will not call out or shout aloud, Nor make His voice heard in the street.
3
“A broken reed He will not break [off] And a dimly burning wick He will not extinguish [He will not harm those who are weak and suffering]; He will faithfully bring forth justice.
4
“He will not be disheartened
or crushed [in spirit];
[He will persevere] until He has
established justice on the earth; And the coastlands will wait expectantly for His law.”
5
This is what God the Lord says,
He who created the heavens and stretched them out,
Who spread out the earth and its produce, Who gives breath
to the people on it And spirit to those who walk in it !
6
“I am the Lord, I have
called You (the Messiah)
in righteousness
[for a righteous purpose],
I will also take You by the hand and keep watch over You,
And I will appoint You as a covenant to the people [Israel],
As a light to the nations (Gentiles),
7
To open the eyes of the blind,
To bring out prisoners from the
dungeon And those who sit in darkness from the prison.
8
“I am the Lord, that is My Name; My glory I will not give to another, Nor My praise to carved idols.
9
“Indeed, the former things
have come to pass, Now I declare new things;
Before they spring forth I proclaim them to you.”
10
Sing to the Lord a new song,
Sing His praise from the end
of the earth! You who go down to the sea, and all that is in it,
You islands and coastlands, and those who inhabit
them [sing His praise]!
11
Let the wilderness and its cities lift up their voices,
The villages where Kedar lives.
Let the inhabitants of [c]Sela shout for joy,Let them shout joyfully from the tops of the mountains.
12
Let them give glory to the Lord
And declare His praise in the
islands and coastlands.
13
The Lord will go forth like a warrior, He will stir up His zeal like a man of war; He will shout out, yes, He will raise a war cry. He will prevail [mightily] against His enemies.
The Blindness of the People
14
“I [the Lord] have been silent for a long time, I have been still and restrained Myself. Now I will moan like a woman in labor, I will both gasp and pant.
15
“I will lay waste the mountains and hills And wither all their vegetation; I will turn the rivers into coastlands And dry up the ponds.
16
“I will lead the blind by a
way they do not know;
I will guide them in paths
that they do not know.
I will make darkness
into light before them
And rugged places into
plains. These things I will do [for them], And I will not leave them abandoned or undone.”
17
Those who trust in carved
idols will be turned back,
And utterly put to shame,
Who say to cast images,
“You are our gods.”
18
Hear, you deaf! And look, you blind, that you may see.
19
Who is blind but
My servant [Israel],
Or deaf like My
messenger whom
I send? Who is blind
like the one who is at peace with Me
[in a covenant
relationship], Or so
blind as the
servant of the Lord?
20
You have seen many things, but you do not observe them;
Your ears are open, but no one hears.
21
The Lord was pleased
for His righteousness’
sake To make the law
great and prove to
be glorious.
22
But this is a people
despoiled and plundered;
All of them are trapped
in holes, Or are
hidden away in prisons.
They have become a
prey with no
one to rescue
them, And a spoil,
with no one to say,
“Give them back!”
23
Who among you will listen to this? Who will listen and pay attention in the time to come?
24
Who gave up Jacob
[the kingdom of
Judah] for spoil,
and [the kingdom of]
Israel to the plunderers ?
Was it not the Lord,
He against whom we
[of Judah] have sinned,
And in whose ways
they [of Israel]
were unwilling to
walk, And whose
law and teaching
they did not obey?
25
Therefore He poured
out on Israel the
heat of His anger
And the fierceness of battle;
And engulfed him in fire,
Yet he did not recognize
[the lesson of
repentance which
the Assyrian conquest
was intended to teach];It burned him, but
he did not take it to heart.

📜 Isaiah 43:1-28
Israel Redeemed
43:1-28 But now, this is what the Lord,
your Creator says, O Jacob,
And He who formed you, O Israel,
“Do not fear, for I have redeemed you
[from captivity]; I have called you by name;
you are Mine!
2
“When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;And through the rivers,
they will not overwhelm you.
When you walk through fire,
you will not be scorched,
Nor will the flame burn you.
3
“For I am the Lord your God,
The Holy One of Israel, your Savior;
I have given Egypt [to the Babylonians]
as your ransom,
Cush (ancient Ethiopia) and
Seba [its province] in exchange for you.
4
“Because you are precious in My sight,
You are honored and I love you,
I will give other men in return for you and
other peoples in exchange for your life.
5
“Do not fear, for I am with you;
I will bring your offspring from the east
[where they are scattered],
And gather you from the west.
6
“I will say to the north, ‘Give them up!’
And to the south, ‘Do not hold them back.’
Bring My sons from far way
And My daughters from the ends of the earth,
7
Everyone who is called by My Name,
Whom I have created for My glory,
Whom I have formed, even whom I have made.”
Israel Is God’s Witness
8
Bring out the people who are blind,
even though they have eyes,
And the deaf, even though
they have ears.
9
All the nations have
gathered together
So that the peoples
may be assembled.
Who among them
(the idolaters)
can predict this
[that Judah would return
from captivity]
And proclaim to us the
former events?
Let them provide their
witnesses so that they
may be justified,
Or let them hear
and say [in acknowledgement],
“It is the truth.”
10
“You are My witnesses,” declares the Lord,
“And My servant whom I have chosen,
That you may know and believe Me
And understand that I am He.
Before Me there was no God formed,
And there will be none after Me.
11
“I, [only] I, am the Lord,
And there is no Savior besides Me.
12
“I have declared [the future]
and save [the nation]
and proclaimed [that I am God],
And there was no strange (alien)
god among you;
Therefore you are My witnesses
[among the pagans],”
declares the Lord,
“That I am God.
13
“Even from eternity I am He,
And there is no one who can rescue from My hand;
I act, and who can revoke or reverse it?”
Babylon to Be Destroyed
14 This is what the Lord your Redeemer,
the Holy One of Israel says,
“For your sake I have sent [one]
to Babylon, And I will bring down all of them
as fugitives, Even the Chaldeans [who reign in
Babylon], into the ships [b]over which they rejoiced.
15
“I am the Lord, your Holy One,
The Creator of Israel, your King.”
16 This is what the Lord says,
He who makes a way through the sea
And a path through the mighty waters,
17
He who brings out the chariot and the horse,
The army and the mighty warrior,
(They will lie down together, they will
not rise again; They have been extinguished,
they have been put out like a lamp’s wick):
18
“Do not remember the former things,
Or ponder the things of the past.
19
“Listen carefully, I am about to do a new thing,
Now it will spring forth;
Will you not be aware of it?
I will even put a road in the wilderness,
Rivers in the desert.
20
“The beasts of the field will honor Me,
Jackals and ostriches,
Because I have given waters in the wilderness
And rivers in the desert,
To give drink to My people, My chosen
21
“The people whom I formed for Myself
Will make known My praise.
The Shortcomings of Israel
22
“Yet you have not called on Me [in prayer and worship], O Jacob;
But you have grown weary of Me, O Israel.
23
“You have not brought Me your sheep or
goats for your burnt offerings,
Nor honored Me with your sacrifices.
I have not burdened you with offerings,
Nor wearied you with [demands for offerings of]
incense.
24
“You have not bought Me sweet cane with money,
Nor have you filled Me with the fat of your sacrifices;
But you have burdened Me with your sins,
You have wearied Me with your wickedness.
25
“I, only I, am He who wipes out your
transgressions for My own sake,
And I will not remember your sins.
26
“[Remind Me [of your merits
with a thorough report],
let us plead and argue our
case together; State your position,
that you may be proved right.
27
“Your first father [Jacob] sinned,
And your spokesmen
[the priests and the prophets -
your mediators]
have transgressed against Me.
28
“So I will profane the officials of the sanctuary,
And I will consign Jacob to destruction and
[I will subject] Israel to defamation and abuse.

The Blessings of Israel
44:1 “But now listen, O Jacob, My servant,
And Israel, whom I have chosen:
2
This is what the Lord who made you
And formed you from the womb, who
will help you says,
‘Fear not, O Jacob My servant;
And Jeshurun (Israel, the upright one)
whom I have chosen.
3
‘For I will pour out water on him who is thirsty,
And streams on the dry ground;
I will pour out My Spirit on your offspring
And My blessing on your descendants;
4
And they will spring up among the grass
Like willows by the streams of water.’
5
“One will say, ‘I am the Lord’s’;
And another will name himself after
Jacob; And another will write on his hand,
‘I am the Lord’s,’ And be called by the
[honorable] name of Israel.
6
“For the Lord, the King of Israel and his Redeemer,
the Lord of hosts says this,
‘I am the First and I am the Last;
And there is no God besides Me.
7
‘Who is like Me? Let him proclaim it and declare it;
Yes, let him confront Me,
Since I established the people of antiquity.
And let them [those supposed gods] tell those
people [who foolishly follow them] the things to come
And the events that are going to take place.
8
‘Do not tremble nor be afraid [of the violent
upheavals to come];
Have I not long ago proclaimed it
to you and declared it?
And you are My witnesses.
Is there a God besides Me?
There is no other Rock;
I know of none.’”
The Folly of Idolatry
9 All who make carved idols are nothing. Their precious objects are worthless [to them], and their own witnesses (worshipers) fail to see or know, so that they will be put to shame. 10 Who has made a god or cast an idol which is profitable for nothing? 11 In fact, all his companions will be put to shame, for the craftsmen themselves are mere men. Let them all assemble, let them stand up, let them be terrified, let them together be put to shame.
12 The ironsmith shapes iron and uses a chisel and works it over the coals. He forms the [idol’s] core with hammers and works it with his strong arm. He also becomes hungry and his strength fails; he drinks no water and grows tired. 13 The carpenter stretches out a measuring line, he marks out the shape [of the idol] with red chalk; he works it with planes and outlines it with the compass; and he makes it like the form of a man, like the beauty of man, that it may sit in a house. 14 He cuts cedars for himself, and takes a cypress or an oak and lets it grow strong for himself among the trees of the forest. He plants a fir, and the rain nourishes it. 15 Then it becomes fuel for a man to burn, so he takes one of them and warms himself; he also kindles a fire to bake bread. He also makes a god [from the same wood] and worships it. He makes it into a carved idol [with his own hands] and falls down and worships it! 16 He burns half of the wood in the fire; over this half he [cooks and] eats meat, he roasts meat and is satisfied. Also he warms himself and says, “Aha! I am warm, I have seen the fire.” 17 But from what is left of the wood he makes a god, his carved idol. He falls down before it, he worships it and prays to it and says, “Save me, for you are my god.” 18 They do not know, nor do they understand, for God has muddied their eyes so that they cannot see, and their hearts (minds) as well so that they cannot understand. 19 No one remembers, nor has knowledge and understanding [enough] to say [to himself], “I have burned half of this log in the fire, and also baked bread on its coals and have roasted meat and eaten it. Then I make the rest of it into an repulsive thing [to God]; I bow down [to worship] before a block of wood!” 20 That kind of man (the idolater) feeds on ashes [and is satisfied with ashes]! A deceived mind has led him astray, so that he cannot save himself, or ask, “Is this thing [that I am holding] in my right hand not a lie?”
God Forgives and Redeems
“Remember [the foolishness of] these things, O Jacob
And Israel, for you are My servant!
I formed you, you are My servant;
O Israel, you will not be forgotten by Me.

formed you from the womb says this,

The Blessings of Israel
44:1 “But now listen, O Jacob, My servant,
And Israel, whom I have chosen:
2
This is what the Lord who made you
And formed you from the womb, who
will help you says,
‘Fear not, O Jacob My servant;
And Jeshurun (Israel, the upright one)
whom I have chosen.
3
‘For I will pour out water on him who is thirsty,
And streams on the dry ground;
I will pour out My Spirit on your offspring
And My blessing on your descendants;
4
And they will spring up among the grass
Like willows by the streams of water.’
5
“One will say, ‘I am the Lord’s’;
And another will name himself after
Jacob; And another will write on his hand,
‘I am the Lord’s,’ And be called by the
[honorable] name of Israel.
6
“For the Lord, the King of Israel and his Redeemer,
the Lord of hosts says this,
‘I am the First and I am the Last;
And there is no God besides Me.
7
‘Who is like Me? Let him proclaim it and declare it;
Yes, let him confront Me,
Since I established the people of antiquity.
And let them [those supposed gods] tell those
people [who foolishly follow them] the things to come
And the events that are going to take place.
8
‘Do not tremble nor be afraid [of the violent
upheavals to come];
Have I not long ago proclaimed it
to you and declared it?
And you are My witnesses.
Is there a God besides Me?
There is no other Rock;
I know of none.’”
The Folly of Idolatry
9 All who make carved idols are nothing. Their precious objects are worthless [to them], and their own witnesses (worshipers) fail to see or know, so that they will be put to shame. 10 Who has made a god or cast an idol which is profitable for nothing? 11 In fact, all his companions will be put to shame, for the craftsmen themselves are mere men. Let them all assemble, let them stand up, let them be terrified, let them together be put to shame.
12 The ironsmith shapes iron and uses a chisel and works it over the coals. He forms the [idol’s] core with hammers and works it with his strong arm. He also becomes hungry and his strength fails; he drinks no water and grows tired. 13 The carpenter stretches out a measuring line, he marks out the shape [of the idol] with red chalk; he works it with planes and outlines it with the compass; and he makes it like the form of a man, like the beauty of man, that it may sit in a house. 14 He cuts cedars for himself, and takes a cypress or an oak and lets it grow strong for himself among the trees of the forest. He plants a fir, and the rain nourishes it. 15 Then it becomes fuel for a man to burn, so he takes one of them and warms himself; he also kindles a fire to bake bread. He also makes a god [from the same wood] and worships it. He makes it into a carved idol [with his own hands] and falls down and worships it! 16 He burns half of the wood in the fire; over this half he [cooks and] eats meat, he roasts meat and is satisfied. Also he warms himself and says, “Aha! I am warm, I have seen the fire.” 17 But from what is left of the wood he makes a god, his carved idol. He falls down before it, he worships it and prays to it and says, “Save me, for you are my god.” 18 They do not know, nor do they understand, for God has muddied their eyes so that they cannot see, and their hearts (minds) as well so that they cannot understand. 19 No one remembers, nor has knowledge and understanding [enough] to say [to himself], “I have burned half of this log in the fire, and also baked bread on its coals and have roasted meat and eaten it. Then I make the rest of it into an repulsive thing [to God]; I bow down [to worship] before a block of wood!” 20 That kind of man (the idolater) feeds on ashes [and is satisfied with ashes]! A deceived mind has led him astray, so that he cannot save himself, or ask, “Is this thing [that I am holding] in my right hand not a lie?”
God Forgives and Redeems
“Remember [the foolishness of] these things, O Jacob
And Israel, for you are My servant!
I formed you, you are My servant;
O Israel, you will not be forgotten by Me.
22
“I have wiped out your transgressions like a thick cloud
And your sins like a heavy mist.
Return to Me, for I have redeemed you.”
23
Shout for joy, O heavens, for the Lord has done it!
Shout in triumph, you depths of the earth;
Break forth into jubilant rejoicing, you mountains,
O forest, and every tree in it!
For the Lord has redeemed Jacob,
And He shows His glory in Israel.
24 For the Lord, your Redeemer, and He who
formed you from the womb says this,
“I am the Lord, Maker of all things,
Who alone stretches out the heavens,
Who spreads out the earth by Myself,
25
Frustrating the signs and confounding the omens of boasters (false prophets),
Making fools out of [b]fortune-tellers,
Counteracting the wise
And making their knowledge ridiculous,
26
Confirming the word of His servant
And carrying out the plan of His messengers.
It is I who says of Jerusalem, ‘She shall [again] be inhabited!’
And of the cities of Judah, ‘They shall [again] be built.’
And I will raise up and restore her ruins.
27
“It is I who says to the deep, ‘Be dried up!’
And I will make your rivers dry.
28
“It is I who says of Cyrus, ‘He is My shepherd (ruler),
And he will carry out all that I desire—’
Saying of Jerusalem, ‘She shall [again] be built,’
And of the temple, ‘Your foundation shall [again] be laid.’”

📜Isaiah 42:1-25
1
Behold, My ]Servant, whom I uphold; My Chosen One in whom My soul delights. I have put My Spirit upon Him; He will bring forth justice to the nations.
2
“He will not call out or shout aloud, Nor make His voice heard in the street.
3
“A broken reed He will not break [off] And a dimly burning wick He will not extinguish [He will not harm those who are weak and suffering]; He will faithfully bring forth justice.
4
“He will not be disheartened
or crushed [in spirit];
[He will persevere] until He has
established justice on the earth; And the coastlands will wait expectantly for His law.”
5
This is what God the Lord says,
He who created the heavens and stretched them out,
Who spread out the earth and its produce, Who gives breath
to the people on it And spirit to those who walk in it !
6
“I am the Lord, I have
called You (the Messiah)
in righteousness
[for a righteous purpose],
I will also take You by the hand and keep watch over You,
And I will appoint You as a covenant to the people [Israel],
As a light to the nations (Gentiles),
7
To open the eyes of the blind,
To bring out prisoners from the
dungeon And those who sit in darkness from the prison.
8
“I am the Lord, that is My Name; My glory I will not give to another, Nor My praise to carved idols.
9
“Indeed, the former things
have come to pass, Now I declare new things;
Before they spring forth I proclaim them to you.”
10
Sing to the Lord a new song,
Sing His praise from the end
of the earth! You who go down to the sea, and all that is in it,
You islands and coastlands, and those who inhabit
them [sing His praise]!
11
Let the wilderness and its cities lift up their voices,
The villages where Kedar lives.
Let the inhabitants of [c]Sela shout for joy,Let them shout joyfully from the tops of the mountains.
12
Let them give glory to the Lord
And declare His praise in the
islands and coastlands.
13
The Lord will go forth like a warrior, He will stir up His zeal like a man of war; He will shout out, yes, He will raise a war cry. He will prevail [mightily] against His enemies.
The Blindness of the People
14
“I [the Lord] have been silent for a long time, I have been still and restrained Myself. Now I will moan like a woman in labor, I will both gasp and pant.
15
“I will lay waste the mountains and hills And wither all their vegetation; I will turn the rivers into coastlands And dry up the ponds.
16
“I will lead the blind by a
way they do not know;
I will guide them in paths
that they do not know.
I will make darkness
into light before them
And rugged places into
plains. These things I will do [for them], And I will not leave them abandoned or undone.”
17
Those who trust in carved
idols will be turned back,
And utterly put to shame,
Who say to cast images,
“You are our gods.”
18
Hear, you deaf! And look, you blind, that you may see.
19
Who is blind but
My servant [Israel],
Or deaf like My
messenger whom
I send? Who is blind
like the one who is at peace with Me
[in a covenant
relationship], Or so
blind as the
servant of the Lord?
20
You have seen many things, but you do not observe them;
Your ears are open, but no one hears.
21
The Lord was pleased
for His righteousness’
sake To make the law
great and prove to
be glorious.
22
But this is a people
despoiled and plundered;
All of them are trapped
in holes, Or are
hidden away in prisons.
They have become a
prey with no
one to rescue
them, And a spoil,
with no one to say,
“Give them back!”
23
Who among you will listen to this? Who will listen and pay attention in the time to come?
24
Who gave up Jacob
[the kingdom of
Judah] for spoil,
and [the kingdom of]
Israel to the plunderers ?
Was it not the Lord,
He against whom we
[of Judah] have sinned,
And in whose ways
they [of Israel]
were unwilling to
walk, And whose
law and teaching
they did not obey?
25
Therefore He poured
out on Israel the
heat of His anger
And the fierceness of battle;
And engulfed him in fire,
Yet he did not recognize
[the lesson of
repentance which
the Assyrian conquest
was intended to teach];It burned him, but
he did not take it to heart.

📜 Isaiah 43:1-28
Israel Redeemed
43:1-28 But now, this is what the Lord,
your Creator says, O Jacob,
And He who formed you, O Israel,
“Do not fear, for I have redeemed you
[from captivity]; I have called you by name;
you are Mine!
2
“When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;And through the rivers,
they will not overwhelm you.
When you walk through fire,
you will not be scorched,
Nor will the flame burn you.
3
“For I am the Lord your God,
The Holy One of Israel, your Savior;
I have given Egypt [to the Babylonians]
as your ransom,
Cush (ancient Ethiopia) and
Seba [its province] in exchange for you.
4
“Because you are precious in My sight,
You are honored and I love you,
I will give other men in return for you and
other peoples in exchange for your life.
5
“Do not fear, for I am with you;
I will bring your offspring from the east
[where they are scattered],
And gather you from the west.
6
“I will say to the north, ‘Give them up!’
And to the south, ‘Do not hold them back.’
Bring My sons from far way
And My daughters from the ends of the earth,
7
Everyone who is called by My Name,
Whom I have created for My glory,
Whom I have formed, even whom I have made.”
Israel Is God’s Witness
8
Bring out the people who are blind,
even though they have eyes,
And the deaf, even though
they have ears.
9
All the nations have
gathered together
So that the peoples
may be assembled.
Who among them
(the idolaters)
can predict this
[that Judah would return
from captivity]
And proclaim to us the
former events?
Let them provide their
witnesses so that they
may be justified,
Or let them hear
and say [in acknowledgement],
“It is the truth.”
10
“You are My witnesses,” declares the Lord,
“And My servant whom I have chosen,
That you may know and believe Me
And understand that I am He.
Before Me there was no God formed,
And there will be none after Me.
11
“I, [only] I, am the Lord,
And there is no Savior besides Me.
12
“I have declared [the future]
and save [the nation]
and proclaimed [that I am God],
And there was no strange (alien)
god among you;
Therefore you are My witnesses
[among the pagans],”
declares the Lord,
“That I am God.
13
“Even from eternity I am He,
And there is no one who can rescue from My hand;
I act, and who can revoke or reverse it?”
Babylon to Be Destroyed
14 This is what the Lord your Redeemer,
the Holy One of Israel says,
“For your sake I have sent [one]
to Babylon, And I will bring down all of them
as fugitives, Even the Chaldeans [who reign in
Babylon], into the ships [b]over which they rejoiced.
15
“I am the Lord, your Holy One,
The Creator of Israel, your King.”
16 This is what the Lord says,
He who makes a way through the sea
And a path through the mighty waters,
17
He who brings out the chariot and the horse,
The army and the mighty warrior,
(They will lie down together, they will
not rise again; They have been extinguished,
they have been put out like a lamp’s wick):
18
“Do not remember the former things,
Or ponder the things of the past.
19
“Listen carefully, I am about to do a new thing,
Now it will spring forth;
Will you not be aware of it?
I will even put a road in the wilderness,
Rivers in the desert.
20
“The beasts of the field will honor Me,
Jackals and ostriches,
Because I have given waters in the wilderness
And rivers in the desert,
To give drink to My people, My chosen
21
“The people whom I formed for Myself
Will make known My praise.
The Shortcomings of Israel
22
“Yet you have not called on Me [in prayer and worship], O Jacob;
But you have grown weary of Me, O Israel.

Next will be Ezekiel 39 then we will do Isaiah 24 which will be #OldTestamentStudy & #ApocalypticBookStudy combined for that chapter and then we will be at Joel or Zechariah after that ? I haven't made up my mind what order I'm going to do the minor prophets yet ?
