Isaiah 8:1-22
Raise the war cry, you nations and be shattered! Prepare for battle, and be shattered! Prepare for battle, and be shattered! Device your strategy, but it will be thwarted; propose your plan, but it will not stand, for God is with us.
This people has rejected the gently flowing waters of Shiloah and rejoices over Rezin and the son of Remaliah, therefore the Lord is about to bring against them the mighty floodwater of the River- the king of Assyria with all his pomp, It will overflow all its channels, run over all its banks.
Do not call conspiracy everything that these people call conspiracy; do not fear what they fear, and do not dread it. The Lord Almighty is the one you are to regard as holy, he is the one you are to fear, he is the one you are to dread.
I will wait for the Lord, who is hiding his face from the house of Jacob. I will put my trust in him.
Isaiah and his children are signs and symbols in Israel from the Lord Almighty, who dwells on Mount Zion.
Why consult the dead on behalf of the living? To the law and to the testimony! If they do not speak according to this word, they have not light of dawn. They will be trust into utter darkness.
Why?
For the king is set on the disastrous course of asking Assyria's help. And when the rebels are dealt with, Assyria will sweep on into Judah, till Jerusalem itself is surrounded.
The son of the Lord should fear the Lord, but does not fear the man, for those kill the life only, but the Lord is relate to the soul.
Israelite and Judah has rejected the Lord so the Lord hide his face from them.
Be the signs and symbols among people from the Lord Almighty is very difficult mission, needs the strength and faith from the Lord.
How?
Fear the Lord, He is Almighty, king of kings, He is the one I am regard as holy.
