I love the book of Isaiah (in the Bible). All that the LORD GOD tells of the future. You might think it's all for Israel, but it's more. It's for all the nations, and people....
"'Turn to ME and be saved ALL you ends of the earth; for I AM GOD, and there is NO OTHER....Before ME EVERY KNEE WILL BOW; BY ME EVERY TONGUE WILL SWEAR. They will say OF ME, 'In the LORD ALONE are deliverance and strength.' I AM THE FIRST AND THE LAST; APART FROM ME THERE IS NO GOD. APART FROM ME THERE IS NO SAVIOR. I HAVE REVEALED, AND SAVED AND PROCLAIMED - I, and not some foreign god among you. You are MY WITNESSES that I AM GOD. YES, AND FROM ANCIENT DAYS - I AM HE. NO ONE CAN DELIVER OUT OF MY HAND. WHEN I ACT, WHO CAN REVERSE IT?' The LORD will march out like a CHAMPION, like a WARRIOR HE WILL stir up HIS ZEAL; with a shout HE WILL raise the battle cry and WILL TRIUMPH over HIS enemies!"(compare to Revelation 19:11-16) "In faithfulness HE WILL bring forth justice; HE WILL not falter or be discouraged till HE ESTABLISHES JUSTICE ON EARTH. In HIS TEACHING the continents (islands) will put their HOPE." "'See, the former things have taken place, and NEW THINGS I declare,' says the LORD; 'before they spring into being I announce them to you.'"
There's so much more to know about the past and future for Israel, and the future of all mankind, just from reading the book of Isaiah alone. Isaiah, God's annointed prophet who prophesied of the LORD JESUS coming the first time as the Lamb of God and of Christ's second coming as the Warrior of God's great zeal and power, bringing righteousness and justice to the earth. PEACE ON EARTH! What a DAY to behold!
The LORD describes in so many ways (in the book of Isaiah) those who deceivingly look to other gods (themselves/governments/demonic spirits/men of great wealth/human wisdom) and what is their end to be. And HE tells the TRUTH of the glorious future for those who repent before the Son of God, and worship Him alone - to the end of their life on earth. GLORY GLORY HALLELUJAH! HE REIGNS! And He's my Savior and KING!
