STUDYING AND UNDERSTANDING THE BIBLE – PART 476
Isaiah Chapter 66 continued….
After the rebirth of the church which was symbolized by Jerusalem, Isaiah encourages his audience (God’s people) to rejoice.
The same way heaven rejoices over a sinner that is saved.
Luke 15:7
[7]I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.
Isaiah 66:10-14 TPT
So rejoice with Jerusalem and be glad for her! All who love her, join in with her great joy, especially those who remember her grief!
This is literally talking about the restoration of the Jews from various part of the globe back to their land. However, Isaiah uses it figuratively as the restoration of the church.
[11] You, her children, will drink the milk of her prosperity and nurse with delight from her glorious abundance!
Milk here is a symbol for the Word of God. You can’t just get saved and fold your hands. You need to feed on the Word for spiritual growth and service to God and humanity.
[12] For Yahweh says: “I will extend to her prosperity like a river and the wealth of gentiles like a flooding river. You will nurse from her breast, be cradled in her arms, and delightfully bounced on her knees.
[13] As a mother tenderly comforts her child, so will I tenderly comfort you, and you will find comfort in Jerusalem.”
[14] When you feast your eyes on this, your heart will leap for joy and be revived; your body will flourish and sprout like grass. The mighty power of Yahweh will be revealed, resting on his servants, but his fury will be shown to his enemies!
Note that His enemies are the devil, demons and those who have sold their souls to the devil and rejected Salvation.
They will all be exposed by the Word of God and judged accordingly. That’s why the writer of Hebrews says in…
Hebrews 4:12-13
[12]For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
[13]Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.
Essentially, nothing would be hidden before God. All your activities in the body on earth shall be revealed and rewards given, be it evil or good.
To be continued…Praise God.
