When we face crisis, we often look for solutions that have worked for us before. Many times,
these are practical and things we can physically do. We see the same tendency in Judah when
she faced the oncoming rage of the Assyrians; she looked to Egypt, a promising ally. The
problem was that God was standing by to help them, and He should have been their first
stop; any allegiances Judah made should have gone through God’s approval first. As a royal
prophet, Isaiah had access to the king and court, and they had access to Isaiah. So, I am sure
that the rebuke of Isaiah 19 hit hard. In this prophecy, God rebukes those who relied on Egypt
as a first line of defense. God had already determined to bring judgment on Egypt, so she
wouldn’t be the ally Judah had hoped for after all. Even today, we need to remember that God
is working in the nations of the world, even when or if it feels like He isn’t. He has a plan, and
that’s the plan we need to get with.

celebrated cities of Tyre and Sidon responded to Assyria and what happened to them. Even
in Judah there was tremendo... -
Trouble Coming; Isaiah 30-32
In the time of the future millennial Kingdom, everything will be different. Jesus Christ will reign
in the flesh, and the principles of right and wrong will be made clear. Isaiah 32 speaks about
that time. It’s still amazing to me that a prophet, generations before the birth of Christ, still

Vegeance; Isaiah 33-35
As I read Isaiah 34, it strikes me that the time of the millennium will be different than any other
time in history. By millennium, I’m referring to the millennial reign of Jesus Christ in which Christ
rules as King from Jerusalem for 1000 years. Revelation 19 talks about how Christ will destroy
