#Isaiah 66
Text
This is What the Lord Says…
1 Thus saith the Lord, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house that ye build unto me? and where is the place of my rest?
2 For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the Lord: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word.
3 He that killeth an ox is as if he slew a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, as if he cut off a dog's neck; he that offereth an oblation, as if he offered swine's blood; he that burneth incense, as if he blessed an idol. Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations.
4 I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.
5 Hear the word of the Lord, ye that tremble at his word; Your brethren that hated you, that cast you out for my name's sake, said, Let the Lord be glorified: but he shall appear to your joy, and they shall be ashamed.
6 A voice of noise from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of the Lord that rendereth recompence to his enemies.
7 Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child.
8 Who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day? or shall a nation be born at once? for as soon as Zion travailed, she brought forth her children.
9 Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to bring forth? saith the Lord: shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb? saith thy God.
10 Rejoice ye with Jerusalem, and be glad with her, all ye that love her: rejoice for joy with her, all ye that mourn for her:
11 That ye may suck, and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; that ye may milk out, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory.
12 For thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river, and the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream: then shall ye suck, ye shall be borne upon her sides, and be dandled upon her knees.
13 As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem.
14 And when ye see this, your heart shall rejoice, and your bones shall flourish like an herb: and the hand of the Lord shall be known toward his servants, and his indignation toward his enemies.
15 For, behold, the Lord will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire.
16 For by fire and by his sword will the Lord plead with all flesh: and the slain of the Lord shall be many.
17 They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one tree in the midst, eating swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith the Lord.
18 For I know their works and their thoughts: it shall come, that I will gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come, and see my glory.
19 And I will set a sign among them, and I will send those that escape of them unto the nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, to Tubal, and Javan, to the isles afar off, that have not heard my fame, neither have seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the Gentiles.
20 And they shall bring all your brethren for an offering unto the Lord out of all nations upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules, and upon swift beasts, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, saith the Lord, as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of the Lord.
21 And I will also take of them for priests and for Levites, saith the Lord.
22 For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make, shall remain before me, saith the Lord, so shall your seed and your name remain.
23 And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the Lord.
24 And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.

“For he who is not against us is on our side. For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink in My name, because you belong to Christ, assuredly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his reward.
But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea.
If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed, rather than having two hands, to go to hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched -- where ‘Their worm does not die and the fire is not quenched.’
And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life lame, rather than having two feet, to be cast into hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched -- where ‘Their worm does not die and the fire is not quenched.’ ”
- Mark 9:40-46 NKJV (1982)

AS YOU PRESS THROUGH PROPHECIES, LOOKING LITERALLY, YOUR SPIRITS ARE SENSATIONALLY SATIATED WITH EACH TRUTH TOUCHED!
Three and a half years before the A.D. 70 siege of Jerusalem, the "man child" was caught up to God and to His throne as the church went into travail. They were those with no guile found in their mouth and they followed the Lamb wherever He led them. From the beginning of Earth's time, He was the Shepherd of faithful friends; and before the Great Tribulation came into full swing with Nero's persecutions, The Lord of all the earth redeemed them from among men... they were His first worldwide resurrection and firstfruits of all His labor. See The Revelation of the Christ chapters 12-14, Isaiah 66:6-9 and Wars of the Jews Book 6, section 5, part 3.

We are used to the imagery of God as Father, the creator and initiator of all things. But God has no sex: these distinctions are human and animal; God infinitely transcends such human limitations. So there is also room and need for a gentler image of God as mother: ‘as a mother comforts her child, so will I comfort you’, promises this passage, even daring to invoke that most maternal and intimately loving and trusting image of the child feeding at its mother’s breast. Such imagery for God as mother comes in other passages as well, such as Psalm 131, where the contentment of the believer in God is compared to that of a little child in its mother’s embrace, or Hosea 11:1-4, where God’s loving care is described in terms of a parent leading and feeding a child – the child is now growing up, and God’s maternal love continues throughout our lives. One of the chief Hebrew words describing God’s love for His people is rachamim, ["compassion," from the same root as] rechem (רֶחֶם), which means a mother’s womb. It appeals, therefore, to the instinctual gut-feeling of a mother for her [unborn[ child, which can never be destroyed or overruled.

Isaiah 66: "As a Mother Comforts Her Child"
Isaiah’s final chapter is primarily about worship. God is sovereign over the whole universe, there is no place that can encompass the Lord.
#Isaiah66 #GodIsaNursingMother #HeavenandHell
Isaiah’s final chapter is primarily about worship. God is sovereign over the whole universe, there is no place that can encompass the Lord. God is vast beyond measure. God is infinite. You and I cannot contain God in a building, or a particular kind of philosophy, or liturgy.
“Thus says the Lord:Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool;so what kind of house could you build for…

Worshiping the King through obedience to his Word
Worshiping the King through obedience to his Word
The ninety-ninth psalm is a majestic call to worship, a call to worship and serve the God who is exalted above all people.
Psalm 99:2 – Yahweh is great in Zion; he is exalted above all the peoples.
In the context of ancient Israel, this psalm illustrates where God allowed his Presence to dwell: within the sanctuary of the temple. The first verse says, “He is enthroned between the cherubim.” The…

ISAIAH S.O.A.P. ~ CHAPTER 66
Monday, 7/17/22
So... once again the Spirit lifts a passage that speaks to where I am (or need to be), this morning... and at the risk of making this all about me, describes my father-in-law, (though I know he'd argue the point with me... ).
SCRIPTURE:
'“For My hand made all these things,
So all these things came into being,” declares the Lord.
“But I will look to this one,
At one who is humble and contrite in spirit, and who trembles at My word."
~ Isaiah 66:2
OBSERVATION:
His hand made - and still makes - everything...
Am I humble?
Am I contrite in spirit - crippled, broken or crushed - broken by my sin - unable to live a godly life in my own power ?
Do I tremble at His Word?
Not often enough, I'm afraid...
...and yet He looks to me - because of Jesus...
APPLICATION:
Be humble (and don't brag about it...)
Realize I am unable to live a godly life in my own power...
Tremble at His word...
PRAYER:
Patient creating Heavenly Father - forgive my lack of humbleness which too often leads me to doing things myself instead of in reliance on You and Your grace - please allow Your Spirit to teach me to listen to, listen for, and tremble at Your word - and thank You for Your Son, Jesus, Who IS the Word, and allows me to come before You in confession and praise.... In His Name, Father, and for Your glory always...
...and tomorrow we move into Jeremiah...
Gratefully, gladly, joyfully - yours in Him...

All these things my hand has made, and so all these things came to be, declares the LORD. But this is the one to whom I will look: he who is humble and contrite in spirit and trembles at my word.

Isaiah 66:2 (NKJV) -
For all those things My hand has made,
And all those things exist,”
Says the LORD.
“But on this one will I look:
On him who is poor and of a contrite spirit,
And who trembles at My word.

Isaiah 66:13 God Will Comfort You
As one whom his mother comforts, so I will comfort you; and you shall be comforted in Jerusalem. Isaiah 66:13
Going through life most people fell alone. They feel as if there is no one by their side to help them. Depression and sorrow set deep inside their hearts with loneliness. People feel abandoned when they are going through a difficult time in their life. The world is seeking comfort in the…
