THE LORD WILL MAKE A WAY


PROCLAMATION
“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past.  See, I am doing a new thing!  Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?  I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.”  Isaiah 43:18-19 (NIV)

EXPLANATION
In chapter forty-two of The Bible Book of Isaiah describes the character of the coming Christ (Isaiah 42:1-4) and the blessing which will come to them when He establishes His kingdom. (Isaiah 42:6-12)  He will lead all those who trust Him for they cannot see the future which He can see. (Isaiah 42:18-21)  In chapter forty-three, The Lord God is speaking to the people of Israel through the prophet Isaiah and reminding them that He delivered them through the Red Sea, and He drowned Pharaoh’s army. (Isaiah 43:16-17)  Then He tells them not to dwell on the past for He is doing a new thing for them and making a away through the wilderness.

APPLICATION
The Lord God told Israel, and He is telling us today, that the deliverance out of past situations would be outdone by the deliverance He will provide for us out of our new predicament.  He made a way for them in the past and He will make a way out of our storms for us today.  He will do for us something which has never been done before.  All we have to do is believe in Him, call on Him, and trust in Him.
