Devotional: Isaiah 33

Today’s passage: Isaiah 33

Helpful thoughts:

  • The destroyer in verses 1-2 could be Assyria or any other nation that God would defeat in the end.
  • The LORD is the only one who can perfectly fulfill the duties of the judicial, legislative and executive branches of government (Verse 22).
  • It’s possible the shipping terms in this passage refer to an inability for anyone to continue to wage war against God’s people once the LORD dwells with them.
    • Zion’s cords cannot be broken (Verse 20).  The enemies cords hang loose (Verse 23).

Questions to consider:

  1. What is ironic of Assyria being called “Destroyer” (Or any other who would oppose God)?
  2. What will come of what God’s enemies considered their strength (Verses 11-12)?
  3. What will be true of all who dwell in Zion (Verse 24)?  What will be done about their sin?  What makes this forgiveness possible?
