* Promises of God and other prophesies spoken by Isaiah the prophet.

Isaiah 25 

8 HE will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord God will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of HIS people shall HE take away from off all the earth: for the Lord hath spoken it.

9 And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for Him, and HE will save us: this is the Lord; we have waited for Him, we will be glad and rejoice in His salvation.

***

Isaiah 26

3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on Thee: because he trusteth in Thee.

4 Trust ye in the Lord for ever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength:

***

Isaiah 26

20 Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast.

21 For, behold, the Lord cometh out of His place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.

***

Isaiah 28:22 ... for I have heard from the Lord God of hosts a consumption, even determined upon the whole earth.

***

Isaiah 29

13 Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near ME with their mouth, and with their lips do honour ME, but have removed their heart far from ME, and their fear toward ME is taught by the precept of men:

14 Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvellous work among this people, even a marvellous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.

15 Woe unto them that seek deep to hide their counsel from the Lord, and their works are in the dark, and they say, Who seeth us? and who knoweth us?

***

Isaiah 30  

1  Woe to the rebellious children, saith the Lord, that take counsel, but not of Me; and that cover with a covering, but not of MY spirit, that they may add sin to sin:

2 That walk to go down into Egypt, and have not asked at MY mouth; to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to trust in the shadow of Egypt!

3 Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.

***

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:

11 Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.

12 Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon:

13 Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instant.

14 And HE shall break it as the breaking of the potters' vessel that is broken in pieces; HE shall not spare: so that there shall not be found in the bursting of it a sherd to take fire from the hearth, or to take water withal out of the pit.

15 For thus saith the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and ye would not.

(God is wisdom and God is truth.  Seek God's wisdom always!)

***

Isaiah 30:18   And therefore will the Lord wait, that HE may be gracious unto you, and therefore will HE be exalted, that HE may have mercy upon you: for the Lord is a God of judgment: blessed are all they that wait for Him.

***

Isaiah 30

21 And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.

22 Ye shall defile also the covering of thy graven images of silver, and the ornament of thy molten images of gold: thou shalt cast them away as a menstruous cloth; thou shalt say unto it, Get thee hence.

***

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!

2 Yet HE also is wise, and will bring evil, and will not call back HIS words: but will arise against the house of the evildoers, and against the help of them that work iniquity.

3 Now the Egyptians are men, and not God; and their horses flesh, and not spirit. When the Lord shall stretch out his hand, both he that helpeth shall fall, and he that is holpen shall fall down, and they all shall fail together.

(Seek God and not man.)

***

Isaiah 31:7   For in that day every man shall cast away his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which your own hands have made unto you for a sin.

(Then they will see how worthless these idols are and they will know there is no help in such as these.)

***

17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.

18 And MY people shall dwell in a peaceable habitation, and in sure dwellings, and in quiet resting places;

***

5 The Lord is exalted; for HE dwelleth on high: HE hath filled Zion with judgment and righteousness.

6 And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, and strength of salvation: the fear of the Lord is his treasure.

***

Isaiah 33:22    For the Lord is our judge, the Lord is our lawgiver, the Lord is our king; HE will save us.

***

Isaiah prophesies concerning the end of the earth:

Isaiah 34:4    And all the host of heaven shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll: and all their host shall fall down, as the leaf falleth off from the vine, and as a falling fig from the fig tree.

***

Isaiah 34:8-9 

8 For it is the day of the Lord's vengeance, and the year of recompences for the controversy of Zion.

9 And the streams thereof shall be turned into pitch, and the dust thereof into brimstone, and the land thereof shall become burning pitch

***

The king of Assyria sets his army against king Hezekiah:

The people of God prayed and the following happened.

Isaiah 37

33 Therefore thus saith the Lord concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not come into this city, nor shoot an arrow there, nor come before it with shields, nor cast a bank against it.

34 By the way that he came, by the same shall he return, and shall not come into this city, saith the Lord.

35 For I will defend this city to save it for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake.

36 Then the angel of the Lord went forth, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses.

That one angel killed 185,000 men!
