Woe to those who go to great depths to hide their plans from the Lord, who do their work in darkness and think, “Who sees us? Who will know?” You turn things upside down, as if the potter were thought to be like the clay! Shall what is formed say to the one who formed it, “You did not make me”? Can the pot say to the potter, “You know nothing”?
In that day the deaf will hear the words of the scroll, and out of gloom and darkness the eyes of the blind will see. Once more the humble will rejoice in the Lord; the needy will rejoice in the Holy One of Israel. The ruthless will vanish, the mockers will disappear, and all who have an eye for evil will be cut down.
Those who are wayward in spirit will gain understanding; those who complain will accept instruction.
God's word to his people has become a closed book, because they pay him only lip-service. But the day is coming when those who are deaf and blind to his message will hear and see, when God's people will once again fear and obey him.
Why?
The sovereign Lord knows everything and what everyone has done on the earth. God is the potter we are the clay. We have not right to criticize the Creator.
In that day the gospel will come to all who fear and obey God.
Jesus Christ being the good news that the deaf will hear and blind will see. The ruthless will vanish and the mockers will disappear.
How?
God is my hope and my way. trust in Him. Jesus Christ is my salvation on the way of blessing.
