Teach them Your ways
July 3, 2019
Isaiah prophesied that…
In the days to come
the mountain of the Lord’s house
will be the highest of the mountains.
It will be lifted above the hills;
peoples will stream to it.
Many nations will go and say,
“Come, let’s go up to the Lord’s mountain,
to the house of Jacob’s God
so that He may teach us His ways
and we may walk in God’s paths.”
Instruction [Torah] will come from Zion;
the Lord’s word from Jerusalem. (Isa 2:2-3, CEB)
This is a wonderful passage to pray through and declare while prayer walking/cycling/driving this summer. Let’s take a closer look at what it’s saying:
Let’s declare the word of the Lord with faith:
The Kingdom of God will rule over all governments [name religious systems, human governments].
Peoples [name ethnic groups, Islamic sects, special interest groups] will stream to the Kingdom of God.
Many nations [including Canada, including the House of Islam, including nations currently known as Muslim-majority nations] will come to worship Jacob’s God and seek to be taught by Him (see also Mt 28:19-20, Rev 5:9-10).
Father God will fulfill His promise to bless all families [nations] of the earth through Abraham (Ge 12:3). This will include the younger [Jacob] generation.
They will be taught by the Lord to walk in His paths see also Jer 31:34; Ps 1, 23:3, 119:105; Pr 3:5-6).
Instruction is coming from Zion. Your people will welcome and receive it, become mature and be as one with You so the world will believe in Jesus Christ, King of the Nations (Jn 17:20-21, Eph 4:10-16).
