Isaiah 41

It took about 5 minutes to read this chapter. Isaiah calls to those who worship idol to bring out the images and have them act. Verses 22 and 23 recounts the taunts Isaiah threw at them. Challenging them to do something; anything that might rouse fear. But as Isaiah points out; they can't. Why? Everything made by man is less than nothing. Whether it be an image, or a profession, or a reputation, or a lifestyle, or even a car; all of these are empty in comparison to God, the only one deserving worship. And how does God see those who pursue the worthless recipients of worship? Abominations.
