God’s Word will not fail
Isaiah 34:16 Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read: No one of these shall fail, None shall want her mate: For my mouth it hath commanded, And his spirit it hath gathered them. The prophet warned the people to check out the book. The prophecies that he was giving would come […]
He speaks from his heart
Isaiah 32:6 For the vile person will speak villainy, And his heart will work iniquity, To practise hypocrisy, and to utter error against the LORD, To make empty the soul of the hungry, And he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.

Trust only in the Lord
Isaiah 31:1 Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help; And stay on horses, And trust in chariots, because they are many; And in horsemen, because they are very strong; But they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, Neither seek the LORD! Isaiah warned people that would go to the world, […]
They didn’t want to hear the truth
Isaiah 30:9 That this is a rebellious people, lying children, Children that will not hear the law of the LORD: 10 Which say to the seers, See not; And to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, Speak unto us smooth things Prophesy deceits: God said the people were rebellious.

Staining the pride
Isaiah 23:9 The LORD of hosts hath purposed it, To stain the pride of all glory, And to bring into contempt all the honourable of the earth. There are no truly honorable people on the earth with God. If you do not honor God then you can not be honorable. If in your pride you […]
Disobeying God
Isaiah 22:12 And in that day did the Lord GOD of hosts call to weeping, and to mourning, And to baldness, and to girding with sackcloth: 13 And behold joy and gladness, Slaying oxen, and killing sheep, Eating flesh, and drinking wine: Let us eat and drink; for to morrow we shall die. Amazingly God […]
Judgment is coming
Isaiah 21:6 For thus hath the Lord said unto me, Go, set a watchman, Let him declare what he seeth. The prophet has warned them of their sin. They have not listened and learned. They have continued in their sin and now judgment is coming very soon. This chapter shows their fear as they realize […]
God caused His man to live the message

Only God saves
Isaiah 17:7 At that day shall a man look to his Maker, And his eyes shall have respect to the Holy One of Israel. People had made idols and worshiped them. Now they must realize that salvation comes only from God. This is the God who made us all. We must lovingly and respectfully look […]
Recognize the King on His throne
Isaiah 16:5 And in mercy shall the throne be established: And he shall sit upon it in truth in the tabernacle of David, Judging, and seeking judgment, and hasting righteousness.

Fleeing
Isaiah 15:7 Therefore the abundance they have gotten, and that which they have laid up, Shall they carry away to the brook of the willows. God knows what is going to happen.

Isaiah 13:17 Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, Which shall not regard silver; And as for gold, they shall not delight in it. The Medes were going to be stirred up by God to attack God’s people. They would come in and destroy and couldn’t be bought off by money or any […]

They speak according to the word or no light in them
Isaiah 8:20 To the law and to the testimony: If they speak not according to this word, It is because there is no light in them. If you hear a preacher who has no respect for the Word of God then you should have no respect for him. Those that would make light of the […]
The virgin birth
Isaiah 7:14 Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, And shall call his name Immanuel. What a tremendous promise we were given.

Poor leadership
Isaiah 3:12 As for my people, children are their oppressors, And women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, And destroy the way of thy paths. The verse says that their leaders were causing them to make mistakes, to err. They were being destroyed because their leaders were […]
God above all and everyone
Isaiah 2:11 The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, And the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, And the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day. Man in his pride would like to think of himself as the most important. Man would like to lift himself up. Men would even say that […]
His love is everlasting.
Song of Solomon 8:7 Many waters cannot quench love, Neither can the floods drown it: If a man would give all the substance of his house for love, It would utterly be contemned. There is no way to drown true love. God loves us. There is no way to buy off God’s love for us. […]
He loves me
Song of Solomon 7:10 I am my beloved’s, and his desire is toward me. This verse seems to be speaking of the relationship of a man to his wife but also the way the Lord feels about me. I am His. He loves me. He cares about me. What a liberating thought to know that […]

Song of Solomon 6:9 My dove, my undefiled is but one; She is the only one of her mother, She is the choice one of her that bare her. The daughters saw her, and blessed her; Yea, the queens and the concubines, and they praised her. The story is of how the bride, the girl, […]
No other like the Lord Jesus
Song of Solomon 5:9 What is thy beloved more than another beloved, O thou fairest among women? What is thy beloved more than another beloved, that thou dost so charge us? The bride is beautiful and spotless because of the Lamb and His sacrifice. Now the question is asked, what makes your beloved more than […]
Made pure by the blood of the Lamb
Song of Solomon 4:7 Thou art all fair, my love; there is no spot in thee. I think this verse is referring to the bride. She is beautiful. She has no spot or blemish. We know that is because of the Lord Jesus Christ and what He has done through His blood on the cross. […]
Loving Christ Intimately
Song of Solomon 3:4 It was but a little that I passed from them, But I found him whom my soul loveth: I held him, and would not let him go, Until I had brought him into my mother’s house, And into the chamber of her that conceived me. This is the love story of […]
