Isaiah 33

As we have walked through Isaiah together, let’s consider what we’ve seen. I have named these studies “The Gospel according to Isaiah.” Gospel means “Good News” but it includes not just the blessings found in Messiah but also the truth of why we need a Messiah.  We need to understand that we have sinned and … Read more

Passover

Passover for Israel was and remains a time for Israel to remember. To recall our redemption from bondage and how God who delivered us from bondage and slavery.

Isaiah 31

Isaiah 31 continues the prophetic warning that began in Isaiah 30. Judah was facing an immanent attack from Assyria; her leaders believed the only solution was a political alliance with Egypt.

Purim 2026

Purim is a celebration of great deliverance. Disaster was turned into victory. Mourning was turned into rejoicing. Fear was turned into freedom. And yet the Book of Esther never mentions the name of God. Why do you think God’s name is not mentioned in Esther? Even though God is not named, He is everywhere present. Purim teaches … Read more

Isaiah 28

Introduction: Isaiah 28 confronts false confidence and spiritual complacency, exposing leaders who trust human wisdom rather than God’s word. God warns that if our security is in anything but Him it will not stand under His judgment, yet He also promises a sure foundation for those who will trust, obey and abide in Him.  His commands … Read more

Isaiah 27

Isaiah 26:20-21-27:1 Chapter 27 does not begin a new idea so much as it completes the hope that closes the previous chapter.

Yet Isaiah ends with the … Read more
