Listen "Isaiah 29"
Episode Synopsis
Summary
God made a promise. He will keep it. Isaiah reminds us of the God who redeemed Abraham and who called him to fulfil the mission of being a blessing to the nations (vs 22). The promise still stands even if corruption has filled the house of Israel and the evil king of Assyria is laying waste to the nations. God promises that the enemies surrounding them will vanish like a dream - they may shake in fear now, but God will wake them and they will realise it was nothing.
God
God is the one guiding. Lumps of clay can be reformed. God is taking the time to remould Jerusalem. He is not the type to give up so quickly. As usual, the failures of Jerusalem do not determine the willingness of God to remain faithful.
Gospel
It is good news that God remembers his promises. God promised Abraham many children. This promise meant that God's family would one day spread across the entire world. God's kingdom would be universal. In Christ Jesus, the blessing of Abraham comes to the Gentiles (Gal. 3:14).
