Isaiah 18 – Message to Ethiopia

Read Isaiah chapter 18
The Ethiopians had sent ambassadors to the Jews asking them to join an alliance against the Assyrians. The Lord, however, said, “Refuse their invitation. I’ll take care of the Assyrians in my own time.”

That’s the point the Lord makes over and over again. “When will the nations look to Me, wait on Me, trust in Me?” He asks. “How long will they try to succeed in their own abilities only to fail miserable?”

Not only is this a word for nations–but for each of us in our own situations.

God’s loving purpose in chastening is that we yield to Him; but if we harden our hearts, then chastening becomes judgment (citations omitted). Israel was being led astray by false prophets and foolish leaders; the nation would not listen to God’s word . . . If God cannot bring us to repentance through His Word, then He must lift His hand and chasten us. If we do not submit to His chastening, then He must stretch out His hand and judge us. God is long-suffering, but we date not tempt Him by our careless or calloused attitude.
