Psalm 39
READING LIST FOR POETRY AND PROPHECY
Today's Reading is Isaiah 9.8-21
Isaiah 9.8-21
The section describe the events that will happen when the Assyrian invasion takes place in the Northern Kingdom. Isaiah was a prophet to Judah although he used Israel as a lesson for Judah to learn. Notice the phrase 'Yet for all this, his anger is not turned away, his hand is still upraised.' This appears in verses 12, 17, 21, and 10.4. Why is God doing this to the Northern Kingdom? Because He had a covenant with them but they became proud and arrogan (v. 8), they did not return nor did they sought Him (v. 13). The leaders who guide the people mislead them and those who follow went astray (v.14). Wickedness burns like fire (v.16).
What can we learn here: The wages of sin is death...! (Romans 6.23) Sin has its consequences. Israel as a nation had some 800 years or more from Moses until Isaiah's day and they were were given the covenant to follow God. Well, they had followed after other gods and they were being punished for it. It is unpopular today to talk about God is a holy God and that He will judge the wicked. Let th1s chapter be an object lesson for us to learn from the Northern Kingdom, Israel and the Southern Kingdom, Judah.
