Isaiah 41 - God Will Protect

 

Isaiah 41 – God Will Protect

 

God was in control of the nations, and He raised Cyrus to do His bidding. The false gods of the nations are no match for the true God of Israel.

 

God gave the Israelites assurance when He said, “You are my servant! Fear not for I am with you!”

 

God will protect and lead His children through the pitfalls and dangers of life. Soon there will be a showdown between darkness and light, between God and man, between faith and unbelief. God is now calling individuals to turn to him and accept the salvation He has to offer. He is not demanding anything of us. He is simply asking us to accept His grace and salvation that He has to offer.

 

When Christ returns He will establish rules of righteousness. Since God is coming to right the wrongs and relieve injustice, those who are right with God can be of good courage. There is hope for us who trust Him, and we need not worry about the future.

 

He told Jacob (Israel) that they need not fear or be dismayed. He is their God and He is holding them in His “righteous right hand”. With Jesus, we are never alone. God will work in and through our loneliness. He wants to take us into His confidence. He wants to enable us to walk with Him, have fellowship with Him.

God’s salvation, His fellowship, His goodness, His grace is all there if we turn to Him.

 

God knows the future and has everything under control, so there is no need to worry.
