Isaiah 25:1-11
[This chapter speaks of
the work of the Lord in The Time of The END.]
O Lord, you are my
God:
I will exalt you and
praise your name
For in perfect
faithfulness you have done marvelous things,
Things planned
long ago.
You
have made the city a heap of rubble, the fortified town a ruin,
The foreigners'
stronghold a city no more; it will never be rebuilt.
Therefore strong
peoples will honor You.
You have been a
refuge for the poor, a refuge for the needy in his distress,
A shelter from the
storm and a shade from the heat.
For the breath of
the ruthless is like a storm driving against a wall
And like the heat of
the desert.
You silence the
uproar of foreigners;
As heat is reduced
by the shadow of a cloud,
So the song of the
ruthless is stilled.
On
this mountain (Zion) the Lord Almighty
Will
prepare a feast of rich food for all peoples,
A
banquet of aged wine—the best of meats and the finest of wines.
[This speaks of the
wedding supper of the Lamb
That God is preparing
for His elect, His chosen people, the Bride of Christ,
Who are represented by
people from every nation on earth.]
On
this mountain he will destroy the shroud that enfolds all peoples,
The
sheet that covers all nations;
He
will swallow up death forever.
[The shroud is the
blindness that Satan places over all peoples and nations;
That is taken away only
by faith in God and His Christ.
Then God Almighty
swallows up death forever
At the second coming of Christ Jesus.]
The Sovereign Lord
will wipe away the tears from all faces.
He will remove the
disgrace of His people from all the earth.
The Lord has spoken.
In that day
they will say,
'Surely this is our
God; we trusted in Him, and He saved us.
This is the Lord, we
trusted in Him;
Let us rejoice and
be glad in His salvation.'
