Isaiah 25:6-8 – 6 On this mountain the Lord Almighty will prepare
a feast of rich food for all peoples,
the best of meats and the finest of wines.
7 On this mountain he will destroy
the shroud that enfolds all peoples,
the sheet that covers all nations;
8 he will swallow up death forever.
The Sovereign Lord will wipe away the tears
from all faces;
he will remove his people’s disgrace
from all the earth.
It makes a difference when we know from the beginning how things are going to end. Isaiah 25 gives a glimpse of what it will look like when God comes to make his home among us:
1. A feast – I like feasts
2. Death will be swallowed up forever – I like the no death thing
3. Tears will be wiped away from all faces – I like the tears being wiped away thing
4. Disgrace will be removed – I like the removing disgrace thing
Lord, come make your home with us, aligning everything with your purposes and will. AMEN
