Praise Yahweh, Our Loyal God (Psalm 106)
Contributed on Oct 24, 2024
God's loyalty is good, and forever. The psalmist knows it's time to appeal to that loyalty, and to God, and move forward to a better future with God.
If you've ever been to a large amusement park, or zoo, or national/state park, you know that one of the most helpful things you can find there is a giant map with a little dot somewhere on it that says, "You are here." It's easy to get lost in the bigness of what you're ...read more

The Servant Of Isaiah 49 In Luke-Acts
Contributed on Oct 19, 2024
Part 2 of a rabbit trail exploring how the servant's calling is picked up not just by Jesus, but also by Ananias, Paul and Barnabas, in Acts. We are all to be lights, and "salvation," up to the ends of the earth.
Two weeks ago, we worked our way through Isaiah 49:1-6. When I taught on it, I said that these are the words of God's exilic prophet. The prophet feels like his ministry has been a waste of his time and energy. It's accomplished nothing. And God responds to him, not by arguing with him, ...read more

Jesus, Filling Up Israel's Gaps (Isaiah 7)
Contributed on Oct 9, 2024
Builds off Brandon D. Crowe's article "Fulfillment in Matthew as Eschatological Reversal." Broadening people's perspectives on how the NT "fulfills" the OT.

God's Servant, The Solution To Stubbornness And Rebellion (Isaiah 49:1-6)
Contributed on Sep 11, 2024
God's prophet feels he's served for nothing; it's all been a waste, and meaningless. God responds by giving him a global ministry. An encouragement to pastors, and teachers, and volunteers, in particular.
If you're seeking to understand Isaiah 40-55, and make sure you get it right, today's passage is absolutely the most important in this entire part of the book. Everything builds up to Isaiah 49, and everything that follows, builds off of it. There are many approaches to these chapters as ...read more

Listen, To Receive God's Best (Isaiah 48:1-22)
Contributed on Sep 5, 2024
God's people have failed to listen once, and missed God's best. God here gives them a second chance, letting them know He's not angry despite their idolatry.
One of the hardest things to do in the entire world, is to listen when someone gives you good advice. Listening requires a lot from you. It requires an openness to unpleasant possibilities-- the possibility that you're wrong, that you don't know everything, that someone else knows more ...read more
