  • Pastor David on Isaiah 57:14 - 9 years ago
    It would seem to me as a people or more particularly a person who has, as the previous verses imply , hopped in bed with the world and departed from God, but when he realizes the error of his ways, he is left for a while to see if his companies the things or people he was entangled with will deliver him. But they will not, for the wind shall carry them away and vanity shall take them because they are useless. Such is vanity. But when he puts his trust in the Lord he shall inherit Gods holy mountain, which is a place of prayer, in much of the old bible it 's the only place to pray except for prophets and such. When he is able to pray, his prayer would be much like verse 14, to cast up or move away from him all these things that have hindered and led astray for him and so many others. Get it out of my way, I 'm done with it, don 't want any more part of it, Be gone! Much like Jesus says in the new testament "Get behind me Satan! " And having done this it goes on to the next verse where God dwells with and even revives the heart and spirit of the humble and contrite. Praise God for His loving kindness and tender mercies.
