Isaiah 25 Commentary
When you see what Isaiah has seen, praise flows naturally.
The LORD has shown Isaiah the future. The plans of the LORD haven’t failed. Instead, the LORD has faithfully carried out the plans He made long ago. The enemy and the oppressor are destroyed. But the saints are safe under the care of the Almighty.
What the saints have waited for has come to pass. They rejoice at the coming of their savior. A new government is in place. And the LORD prepares a banquet for His subjects. It is a celebration!
The Sovereign Lord will destroy death forever! He will wipe away the tears from everyone’s eyes and take away the disgrace his people have suffered throughout the world. The Lord himself has spoken. Verse 8.
The saint may need reminding that they are reading Isaiah and not the Book of Revelation! Yes, the scripture is talking about the same thing! And it is gloriously beautiful! You easily understand why the prophet praises the LORD.
The key lines in this chapter are that the LORD will punish wickedness; and that the LORD takes care of His own. How the saint waits for a time when death, disgrace, and general frustration are removed from the face of the earth!
Probably the world news will be about the saint: he wasn’t so foolish, after all.
