IN RIGHTEOUSNESS
Video Link: https://youtu.be/qM2NMFB-HZQ
Greetings dear saints of God and any pre-saints who are reading and welcome back to this illuminating Bible Study of the Book of Isaiah. God is so good to give us such a detailed guide for a life of righteousness doing His will by choice. Please take a moment and share this teaching as widely as possible by any and every means available to you. It thrills us to know you value these teachings enough to share. An adequate price cannot be placed on the Truth, that would be like trying to set the value of the Blood of Jesus. Yet many times we treat the Truth and even the Blood as little. The featured picture today is of a nice summer day in Maine.
Now, let’s turn our attention to our primary Bible text in the wonderful Book of Isaiah. Please continue to read out loud.
Isaiah 54:13-17 (ESV)
13 All your children shall be taught by the LORD, and great shall be the peace of your children.
14 In righteousness you shall be established; you shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear; and from terror, for it shall not come near you.
15 If anyone stirs up strife, it is not from me; whoever stirs up strife with you shall fall because of you.
16 Behold, I have created the smith who blows the fire of coals and produces a weapon for its purpose. I have also created the ravager to destroy;
17 no weapon that is fashioned against you shall succeed, and you shall refute every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD and their vindication from me, declares the LORD.”
Monday, we studied and rejoiced over the promised reality that all of our children shall be taught of the Lord and have peace. This is speaking of our natural children and those who consider us their spiritual parents. So, what is the qualifier for this wonderful thing? It is found back at the beginning of the chapter.
Isaiah 54:1-4 (KJV)
1 Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith the LORD.
2 Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes;
3 For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.
4 Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more.
Do you see it? “Break forth into singing”, “enlarge the place of thy tent”, and “fear not”. Then as we go forward into verse fourteen, we find a further qualifier.
Isaiah 54:14 (KJV)
14 In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee.
We are to maintain or break forth in joy, make preparation for these children (your vision), allow no fear, and walk in righteousness. To be established in righteousness means that we are in right standing and doing things Gods way. This would be by faith, in love, no doubt, and led of the Holy Spirit.
Lord willing, I will pick up right here tomorrow. Remember, the Lord loves you, He has a wonderful plan for you specifically, and He cannot lie.

2 Chronicles 20:20 b (KJV)
20 … Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper.
Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 (KJV)
13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
14 For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.
