Awake O Sleeper

Isaiah 29 “Ariel, Ariel” – Isaiah is not advertising washing powder! He is having a dig at Jerusalem with the words “Altar Hearth, Altar Hearth!” – doesn’t have quite the same ring about it in English. Jerusalem was the centre of Old Testament worship where sinners worshipped a holy God through the substitutionary sacrifice of […]
Don’t be a fading flower – Isaiah 28
| By Andy Moyle | 3 mins 45 secs | 0 Comments
Isaiah 28 Isaiah looks to the Northern Kingdom of Israel, Ephraim, or what is left of it after the Assyrian mauling of 733. It’s capital Samaria was in a beautiful valley, but Isaiah pronounces imminent woe. It’s a fading flower, it’s glorious beauty. Samaria is a “living metaphor of the easy-going decadence soon to become […]

Isaiah 24-27 In the beginning God planted a garden, but Cain built a city. Cain a fugitive and wanderer built a city to satisfy his need for belonging and significance.

Jesus’ last words were “Go and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit…”, so we will be doing just that with at least five converts from the UK, Zambia, Poland and China. Baptisms are one of our favourite things to do! They are full of […]

In Chapters 21-23 Isaiah turns his prophetic attention to the more remote future. The last section showed that God rules decisively over the nations – now these next five declarations are far more allusive and mysterious in nature. What will happen?

Isaiah 20 Isaiah finishes off the section with a fulfilment in the immediate future. Egypt had been looking for the Palestinian states to rise with them, against Assyria. Egypt reneged on its promises to help. In the midst of all this Isaiah had embodied his prophetic word – stripping naked for three years (it’s not […]
