Isa 40:28-31

 

Isa 40:28 Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.

 

God is not weary, fainthearted or unknowing. It is unfortunate that most do not believe this statement, even in churches today. The Creator of the ends of the earth is not weary, not tired of His labor. God continues to work as He has always worked, perfectly. Christ is sitting on the right hand of the Father, expecting His enemies to be put under His feet. The enemies of God will be a footstool for the Lord of Creation. This is being worked out as the world turns today. Have you heard? Do you know? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of all things. Most people do not know, even if they have heard.

 

God asked a question, twice, in the verses before this. "To whom then will ye liken God?" (Isa 40:18) "To whom then will ye liken me, or shall I be equal? saith the Holy One" (Isa 40:25). There is no one to compare with God. "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts" (Isa 55:8,9). The nations of the world are to God as a drop in the bucket. They are of no consequence. God knows. This is our hope, that believers are known of God. "Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity" (2 Timothy 2:19). God gives power to the faint. Christ gives strength to the weak. I can "liken" Christ to no one. He is unique. He is light, life, love, power, wisdom, righteousness, sanctification and redemption. Jesus Christ is salvation, to the Jew and Greek. There is no other. There is none like Him. Christ, being God, came down from heaven to earth to die, so that His people would live. He, being sinless, took upon Himself ALL of the sins of His children. He, being perfect, offered Himself to God in the place of His chosen ones as a perfect, atoning sacrifice. Christ, being accepted by the Father, calls His brethren to Himself and brings them into the light, the family of God. To whom will you liken Him? No one.
