PROCLAMATION
“In that day, ‘Sing about a fruitful vineyard: I, The
Lord, will watch over it; I water it continually. I guard it day and night so that no one may
harm it.” Isaiah 27:3 (NIV)
EXPLANATION
The prophet Isaiah continues his prophecy herein
regarding the deliverance, provision, and protection of the people of God.
(Isaiah 27:1-3) In this chapter Isaiah
metaphorically recounts the history of Israel from warfare to exile and even
references their idol worship. (Isaiah 27:4-11)
The chapter ends with a reference to the second coming of Christ and the
gathering up of all those who believe in Him. (Isaiah 27:12-13)
APPLICATION
If the truth be told, not only will The Lord God take
care of us in the future, “In that day …,” He took care of us in the past and
He is taking care of us now. He has
delivered us out of prior storms, made a way out of no way, provided for us
when we didn’t know where our next meal was coming from, and protected us from
dangers seen and unseen. We ought to
thank Him for all that He has done, is doing, and will do in the future. Praise His holy name.
