Day 87: December 19, 2025 – Isaiah 21-25 and Psalm 145

We continue for the most part the woes against the other nations who, like Israel, are being prophecied to meet destruction. There really is no space in these verses for the work of the Lord to flourish in nations and for the promises of God to grow in ways that can produce life and abundance. Rather, these statements in these chapters really call nations to repentance and are reminders that God has created all things, even the nations that serve other gods and worship idols. God has created all and will, as Psalm 145 states, be good to all and his compassion will be over all. I love that verse which doesn’t allow us to distinguish between those who believe correct, or even those who act correctly, and those whom we consider to be outside of the fold that we have created called the church.
