How will the heirs know what to say onto the mountain?

Do you know what to say?

How to say It?

When to Say It?

... do you even say It?

Reading Isiah 54, makes for very interesting, poetical conversation between God, His Son and You!

Abba just got my attention with these verses

O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will lay thy stones with fair colours, and lay thy foundations with sapphires.

And I will make thy windows of agates, and thy gates of carbuncles, and all thy borders of pleasant stones.

And all thy children shall be taught of the LORD; and great shall be the peace of thy children. Isa 54:11-13

Yes, that was for me ... and you.

And it is prophetic for way beyond the cross.

But, read this chapter, and you quickly become aware that the Father is mostly talking to His Son, Jesus here. However, it also makes reference to His seed or those that will be His followers.

It is about establishing His righteousness in all the earth

The full establishment of Righteousness is the outright promise here, which is ultimately fulfilled in Jesus.

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.

Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake. Isa 54:14-16

That promise is to prepare you

He also talks about the devil ...

Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy. Isa 54:16

The waster is the devil who forms weapons to harm you and keep you from realizing your true authority. So to speak, he keeps you from taking up your full inheritance.

He destroys your knowledge of power and authority by oppressing you, instilling fear and all kinds of distractions.

But can we see this in a picture?

Yes, certainly!

Waster in Hebrew is shâchath or שׁחת with the word-picture destroy the fence (enclosure) of the cross. He is the one who destroys or châbal (חבל, fence off the house of control).

But there is good news

Remember our posts on resisting the devil here, here and here?

No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD. Isa 54:17

The inheritance vs the Grace-inheritance

The word used for inheritance above is nachălâh or נחלה. It comes from the Hebrew root word nâchal or נחל also meaning inheritance.

What's the difference?

The pictograph for the root word is continued secured authority - the basic concept for inheritance, even today. You pursue and continue the reign over your father's estate when he passes on.

But notice that the word used in our verse (Isiah 54:17) has another Hebrew letter added, the ה.

ה is the letter for Grace and it renders inheritance perfectly as continued secured authority in Grace. In Jesus!

So, Jesus repeats the good news to those who follow him

For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist. Luk 21:15

When the city of peace falls those whose peace are being attacked will find their weapon.

When?

But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak. Mat 10:19

How?

And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he spake. Act 6:10
