Key Chapters of the Bible

Most things that matter are difficult. Yet, when the Lord has called us to the work, He will provide the grace and strength to accomplish it. Today we turn to Ezekiel 2 & 3 and we'll see that Ezekiel's calling was difficult, but it wasn't supposed to be done in his own strength, but the Lord's.

Lately there's been a lot of talk about the health benefits of "fasting," yet fasting to know God has been around for millennia. For some people, however, fasting is a way to get God to do something they want. Today we'll look at a passage that records this second kind of fasting and how it was more about rebellion than seeking God. Join us! Check out our Bible Study Guide on the Key Chapters of Genesis!

info_outlineGetting "passed over" by the Lord is not a good thing, especially when we're talking God returning His people back to the Promised Land. Today we study Isaiah 48 and see how God warned His people about the coming judgment and confirmed His message through prophecy, but they still would not listen. Yet, He still has a plan for them that results in greater glory to Himself. Join us for another soul-nourishing study in the Book of Isaiah!
DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS:
1. The recipients of the message of Isaiah 48 shifts from prophetically addressing the exiles and returns to focus on the contemporaries of the prophet Isaiah. Thinking back to our previous studies in the book of Isaiah, what was the spiritual condition of Judah at this time?
2. Read over verses 1 & 2 and look for the irony that they contain. Why does the Lord focus on the “name” and “origin” and “invocations” of these people? Although they did these things outwardly, was it sincere? How might a church today have the right name and doctrine but be insincere in its worship? Why is insincere worship of the Lord met with His disapproval?
3. In verses 3 & 4, how did the people respond to the Lord’s Word? Why do you think they had come to respond like this?
4. According to verse 5, why was the Lord so clear in His prophecies? What was He trying to show the people? Were they likely to receive His message?
5. In verses 6 to 11, why does the Lord act? What was He doing among the people? For what purpose?
6. In verse 9, why does the Lord withhold His wrath? Does this surprise you?
7. In verse 11, what does the Lord seek? Why is it best for Him to seek this? How should this be our life goal as well?
8. Verses 12 & 13 present a high view of God. What do the people need to know about God? Why? Do you believe these truths about Him? If so, how have they changed how you view yourself and the purpose of your life?
9. Verse 14 gives another prophecy regarding Babylon. What does the Lord say He will do? What was it, about Babylon, that would have made this promise difficult to believe?
10. How is the Trinity evident in verse 16? What does this tell us about the united nature of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit? How does this show their distinct personhood?
11. In verse 22, what peace is Isaiah talking about here? Why is it withheld from the wicked?
12. The podcast ended with several questions. Are you easy to teach? (Why or why not?) Do you embrace what your learning? When God is trying to teach you something, do you resist it? Or do you purse learning what He would have you do know?
