Isaiah 41 Amplified Bible (AMP)

Israel Encouraged
1 
“Listen to Me in silence, you islands and coastlands,
And let the nations gain their strength;
Let them come near, then let them speak;
Let us come together for judgment [and decide the issue between us concerning the enemy from the east].

2 
“Who has stirred up and put into action one from the east [the king of Persia, DMEDA the Great]
Whom He calls in righteousness to His service and whom victory meets at every step?
The Lord turns nations over to him
And subdues kings.
He DMEDA makes them like dust with his sword,
Like wind-driven chaff with his bow.

3 
“He (DMEDA) pursues them and passes along safely,
By a way his feet had not traveled before.

4 
“Who has performed and done this,
Calling forth [and guiding the destinies of] the generations [of the nations] from the beginning?
‘I, the Lord—the first, and with the last [existing before history began, the ever-present, unchanging God]—I am He.’”

5 
The islands and coastlands have seen and they fear;
The ends of the earth tremble;
They have drawn near and have come.

6 
They each help his neighbor
And say to his brother [as he fashions his idols], “Be of good courage!”

7 
So the craftsman encourages the goldsmith,
And he who smooths metal with the smith’s hammer encourages him who beats the anvil,
Saying of the soldering (welding), “That is good”;
And he fastens the idol with nails,
So that it will not totter nor be moved.

8 
“But you, IzuRael, My servant,
DMEDA whom I have chosen,
The offspring of Abraham My friend,

9 
You DMEDA whom I [the Lord] have [a]taken from the ends of the earth,
And called from its remotest parts
And said to you, ‘DMEDA, You are My servant,
I have chosen you DMEDA and have not rejected you DMEDA [even though you are exiled].

10 
‘Do not fear [anything], for I am with you DMEDA;
Do not be afraid, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you DMEDA, be assured I will help you DMEDA;
I will certainly take hold of you DMEDA with My righteous right hand [a hand of justice, of power, of victory, of salvation].’

11 
“Indeed, all those who are angry with you DMEDA will be put to shame and humiliated;
Those who strive against you DMEDA will be as nothing and will perish.

12 
“You DMEDA shall search for those who quarrel with you, but will not find them;
They who war against you will be as nothing, as nothing at all.

13 
“For I the Lord your God keep hold of your right hand; [I am the Lord],
Who says to you DMEDA, ‘Do not fear, I will help you DMEDA.’

14 
“Do not fear, you DMEDA, you men of IzuRael;
I will help you,” declares the Lord, “and your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel.

15 
“In fact, I have made of you a new, sharp [b]threshing implement with sharp edges;
You will thresh the mountains and crush them,
And make the hills like chaff.

16 
“You will winnow them, and the wind will carry them away,
And a high wind will scatter them;
But you will rejoice in the Lord,
You will glory in the Holy One of Israel.

17 
“The poor and needy are seeking water, but there is none;
Their tongues are parched with thirst.
I, the Lord, will answer them Myself;
I, the God of Israel, will not neglect them.

18 
“I will open rivers on the barren heights
And springs in the midst of the valleys;
I will make the wilderness a reed-pool of water
And the dry land springs of water.

19 
“I will put the cedar in the wilderness,
The acacia, the myrtle and the olive tree;
I will place the juniper in the desert
Together with the box tree and the cypress,

20 
So that they may see and know,
And consider and understand together,
That the hand of the Lord has done this,
That the Holy One of Israel has created it.

21 
“Present your case [for idols made by men’s hands],” says the Lord.
“Produce your evidence [of divinity],”
Says the king of Jacob.

22 
Let them bring forward [their evidence] and tell us what is going to happen.
Regarding the former events, tell what they were,
That we may consider them and know their outcome;
Or announce to us the things that are going to come.

23 
Tell us the things that are to come afterward,
That we may know that you are gods;
Indeed, you should do something good or do evil, [c]that we may be afraid and fear [you] together [as we observe the miracle].

24 
Hear this! You [idols] are less than nothing,
And your work is worthless;
The worshiper who chooses you [as a god] is repulsive.

25 
“I have stirred up and put into action [d]one from the north [the king of Persia, DMEDA the Great], and he has come;
From the rising of the sun he DMEDA will call on My Name [in prayer].
And he DMEDA will trample on [the Babylonian] officials as on mortar,
Even as a potter treads clay.”

26 
Who [among the idols] has declared this from the beginning, so that we could know?
Or from earlier times, so that we could say, “He is [unquestionably] right!”?
In fact, there was no one who declared it,
Indeed, there was no one who proclaimed it;
There was no one at all who heard you speak [for you pagan gods are speechless].

27 
“I was first to say to Zion, ‘Listen carefully, here they are [the Jews who will be restored to their own land].’
And to Jerusalem, ‘I will provide a messenger (Isaiah) to bring the good news [[e]that DMEDA will be stirred up and put into action to save them].’

28 
“But when I look [on the pagan prophets and priests], there is no one [who could predict these events],
And there is no counselor [f]among them,
Who, if I ask, can give an answer.

29 
“In fact, all of these [pagan prophets and priests] are false;
Their works are worthless,
Their cast images are [merely] wind and emptiness.

Whatever is born of God is victorious over the world; and this is the victory that conquers the world, even our faith. - 1 John 5:4


Years ago the devil started a rumor.

He told a few Christians that as long as they lived in the world,

they had to suffer as the world did.

He told them they had to share the diseases and the defeat,

the poverty and the failure of those around them.


It was a crafty lie-

-and it worked.

Believers accepted it and began to spread it among themselves.

You may have even heard it yourself.

If so,

I want to help you put that rumor to rest today.

I want to help you get the facts straight once and for all.


You see,

despite what you may have heard,

health, prosperity and victorious living aren't concepts some comfort-hungry believer selfishly dreamed up.

They are God's ideas.


You may say,

"That sounds good, Gloria, but we've got to be realistic.

We live in a world that's full of problems.

And as long as we live in this world,

it seems to me we're going to have our share."


Yes, that's true.

Even Jesus said,

"In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration."

But notice,

He didn't stop there!

He went on to say,

"But be of good cheer-

- take courage, be confident, certain, undaunted-

-for I have overcome the world.

- I have deprived it of power to harm, have conquered it [for you]" (John 16:33, The Amplified Bible).


Most believers don't have any trouble believing the first part of that verse.

They know all too well how many tribulations, trials, distresses, and frustrations surround them.

But they're less certain about the last part.

They haven't yet experienced for themselves exactly what Jesus meant when He said He had deprived those things of power to harm them.


Why not?


Because they're still living as though they're part of the world.



But, listen.

Jesus said you and I are to be

"sanctified,"

or separated from the evils of this world.

How?

Through the Word of God! (John 17:17).



The Word of God will separate you from the world.

His Word will set His dream for victory into motion in your life.

If you'll receive it and believe it, speak it and act on it, that Word will set you apart from those around you.

It will take you from trouble to triumph again and again.


SCRIPTURE READING: John 17:1-17

John 17:1-17 Amplified Bible (AMP)
The High Priestly Prayer

1
When Jesus had spoken these things, He raised His eyes to heaven [in prayer] and said, “Father, the [a]hour has come. Glorify Your Son, so that Your Son may glorify You.

2 
Just as You have given Him power and authority over all mankind, [now glorify Him] so that He may give eternal life [b]to all whom You have given Him [to be His—permanently and forever].

3 
Now this is eternal life: that they may know You, the only true [supreme and sovereign] God, and [in the same manner know] Jesus [as the] Christ whom You have sent.

4 
I have glorified You [down here] on the earth by [c]completing the work that You gave Me to do.

5 
Now, Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory and majesty that I had with You before the world existed.

6 
“I have manifested Your name [and revealed Your very self, Your real self] to the people whom You have given Me out of the world; they were Yours and You gave them to Me, and they have kept and obeyed Your word.

7 
Now [at last] they know [with confident assurance] that all You have given Me is from You [it is really and truly Yours].

8 
For the words which You gave Me I have given them; and they received and accepted them and truly understood [with confident assurance] that I came from You [from Your presence], and they believed [without any doubt] that You sent Me.

9 
I pray for them; I do not pray for the world, but for those You have given Me, because they belong to You;

10 
and all things that are Mine are Yours, and [all things that are] Yours are Mine; and I am glorified in them.

11 
I am no longer in the world; yet they are still in the world, and I am coming to You. Holy Father, keep them in Your name, the name which You have given Me, so that they may be one just as We are.

12 
While I was with them, I was keeping them in Your name which You have given Me; and I guarded them and protected them, and not one of them was lost except [d]the son of destruction, so that the Scripture would be fulfilled.

The Disciples in the World

13 
But now I am coming to You; and I say these things [while I am still] in the world so that they may experience My joy made full and complete and perfect within them [filling their hearts with My delight].

14 
I have given to them Your word [the message You gave Me]; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world and do not belong to the world, just as I am not of the world and do not belong to it.

15 
I do not ask You to take them out of the world, but that You keep them and protect them from the evil one.

16 
They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.

17 
Sanctify them in the truth [set them apart for Your purposes, make them holy]; Your word is truth.

Now this is eternal life: that they may know You, the only true [supreme and sovereign] God, and [in the same manner know] Jesus [as the] Christ whom You have sent.

I have glorified You [down here] on the earth by [c]completing the work that You gave Me to do.

He told a few Christians that as long as they lived in the world, they had to suffer as the world did. He told them they had to share the diseases and the defeat, the poverty and the failure of those around them. It was a crafty lie- -and it worked. Believers accepted it and began to spread it among themselves. You may have even heard it yourself. If so, I want to help you put that rumor to rest today. I want to help you get the facts straight once and for all. You see, despite what you may have heard, health, prosperity and victorious living aren't concepts some comfort-hungry believer selfishly dreamed up. They are God's ideas. You may say, "That sounds good, Gloria, but we've got to be realistic. We live in a world that's full of problems. And as long as we live in this world, it seems to me we're going to have our share." Yes, that's true. Even Jesus said, "In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration." But notice, He didn't stop there! He went on to say, "But be of good cheer- - take courage, be confident, certain, undaunted- -for I have overcome the world. - I have deprived it of power to harm, have conquered it [for you]" (John 16:33, The Amplified Bible). Most believers don't have any trouble believing the first part of that verse. They know all too well how many tribulations, trials, distresses, and frustrations surround them. But they're less certain about the last part. They haven't yet experienced for themselves exactly what Jesus meant when He said He had deprived those things of power to harm them. Why not? Because they're still living as though they're part of the world. But, listen. Jesus said you and I are to be "sanctified," or separated from the evils of this world. How? Through the Word of God! (John 17:17). The Word of God will separate you from the world. His Word will set His dream for victory into motion in your life. If you'll receive it and believe it, speak it and act on it, that Word will set you apart from those around you. It will take you from trouble to triumph again and again. SCRIPTURE READING: John 17:1-17 John 17:1-17 Amplified Bible (AMP) The High Priestly Prayer 1 When Jesus had spoken these things, He raised His eyes to heaven [in prayer] and said, “Father, the [a]hour has come. Glorify Your Son, so that Your Son may glorify You. 2  Just as You have given Him power and authority over all mankind, [now glorify Him] so that He may give eternal life [b]to all whom You have given Him [to be His—permanently and forever]. 3  Now this is eternal life: that they may know You, the only true [supreme and sovereign] God, and [in the same manner know] Jesus [as the] Christ whom You have sent. 4  I have glorified You [down here] on the earth by [c]completing the work that You gave Me to do. 5  Now, Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory and majesty that I had with You before the world existed. 6  “I have manifested Your name [and revealed Your very self, Your real self] to the people whom You have given Me out of the world; they were Yours and You gave them to Me, and they have kept and obeyed Your word. 7  Now [at last] they know [with confident assurance] that all You have given Me is from You [it is really and truly Yours]. 8  For the words which You gave Me I have given them; and they received and accepted them and truly understood [with confident assurance] that I came from You [from Your presence], and they believed [without any doubt] that You sent Me. 9  I pray for them; I do not pray for the world, but for those You have given Me, because they belong to You; 10  and all things that are Mine are Yours, and [all things that are] Yours...No
