In verse 13 God declares his power in terms that the first hearers and modern readers can understand. He speaks of the foundations of the earth and the population of the heavens. But God doesn't speak of them in past tense as those they are bygone relics of creation. God still commanded their movement in Isaiah's day. Today we know that the heavens are "alive" with stelar and galaxtic activity, and we can stand in faith that he who commanded the heavens in Isaiah's day still moves the nebula and novas at his command.
It took me about 3 minutes to read this chapter.
