Isaiah 46

It took me about 2 minutes to read this chapter. Before I read I prayed that I would catch a glimpse of God's infinate nature; I wasn't disappointed. In verse 11 God offers a picture to show how reliable is his word. "I've said it, and I'll most certainly do it. I've planned it, so it's as good as done." We can take that promise and apply it to so many parts of the Christian life. Forgiveness, boldness, joy, discipline, resurrection are all promised to each Christian without reservation or limitation. The one final promise, that is as good as done from God's perspective, has to do with Christ's return. It is the last event of history, and we have been chosen to await its arrival. Come Lord Jesus.
