When we are young, we often feel we must go along with the worldly ways and for the most part in our Israel lands we have been relatively safe doing this, but in today’s world these values and customs can lead us astray and cause us great harm.
What I find interesting is that I have heard this phrase a number of times lately by Christian speakers. We are living in a very uncertain and confusing time and a lot of people are living in fear and that is why they are so easily submitting to the worldly solutions.
What has happened to us? We seem to have completely lost our ability to think. Our great Israel lands were once full of prosperity. We were safe and had abundant amounts of blessings from God. Our basic daily needs for most of us were usually met.
I believe that we have lost our awareness of the power and majesty of the God we serve and worship. Dr. J.I. Packer in his book “Knowing God” says that majesty refers to greatness and respect, as in our respect for Her Majesty the Queen.

I find these verses very fitting for what we are going through today. We need comfort while waiting for our Lord. A note in my Bible says, “This section of Isaiah’s prophecy (40:1—48:22) is often called the Book of Consolation.
Many of the earthly gods we worship are very appealing and for the most part on their own they are fine but it is when we put them above God and what the Bible says that we get ourselves in trouble and in the end we may find they are not satisfying.
