“For it is time for judgment to begin at the
household of God; and if it begins with us, what will be the outcome for those
who do not obey the gospel of God?”
1 Peter 4:17
Isaiah
Chapter 23,
“The overthrow of Tyre. (1-14) It is
established again. (15-18)” -
Matthew Henry Concise
Dear
Saints,
Today we prayerfully continue our
Feast by reading Isaiah Chapter 23.
Tyre was the hotspot of the era she was full of self-gratification,
(see Ezekiel
28:7) Godliness
was just another object of her humor.
God will show mercy in Tyre. When
God gives her freedom, she returns to the temptation, the love of money,
covetousness, and spiritual idolatry.
“17 At the
end of seventy years, the Lord will visit Tyre, and she will return to her wages
and will prostitute herself with all the kingdoms of the world on the face of
the earth. 18 Her merchandise and her wages will be holy to the Lord. It will
not be stored or hoarded, but her merchandise will supply abundant food and fine
clothing for those who dwell before the Lord.” Isaiah 23:17-18 English Standard
Versions (ESV). Take notice though the
nation was doing badly in a spiritual sense, God (see Isaiah
23:18) used her prosperity to bless those
who were willing to live for His kingdom. “Blessed is
the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord. He is like a tree
planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when
heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of
drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit.” Jeremiah
17:7-8
ESV. Sometimes I’m surprised when a see a Christian
who falls away in sin. Then I think
about what Jesus said to those who appeared to be doing God’s work on the
outside but remained secretly opposed to Jesus (See Matthew
7:23) in secrete. Do I regret giving money to a person who I
found out later was abusing God’s gifts?
Not at all, I give what I feel God is nudging me to give. In doing so I have obeyed the Holy Spirit and
thus been true to my Lord Jesus. Every
gift whether given or abused is done so to the Glory of God. “16 Do you not know that if you present
yourselves to anyone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one whom
you obey, either of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to
righteousness? “ Romans 6:16 ESV. I am convinced that those that pretended to
serve God for their own purposes (See
Matthew
7:22-23) is; “The People That Was Not” able to follow Jesus.
Is Jesus

freedom? Do you want to find true
happiness, peace and purpose in your life?
