As I read Isaiah 34, it strikes me that the time of the millennium will be different than any other
time in history. By millennium, I’m referring to the millennial reign of Jesus Christ in which Christ
rules as King from Jerusalem for 1000 years. Revelation 19 talks about how Christ will destroy
the resisting kingdoms of the world, taking ultimate authority. This is the first judgment, and I
believe Isaiah 34 gives us the details or results of that judgment. One of the interesting things
about this prophecy is that is speaks of the host of heaven being dissolved. In other words, the
gods we have created and made will no longer be gods. The true God will be clearly known. At
the end of the 1000 years, the devil will be set loose again and successfully gather the people
who have been resisting God. Ultimately, this won’t work, evil doesn’t win, and the second
judgment will come.

Wrong View; Isaiah 38-40
People often look at what they have, to define their success or failure. If someone has a lot of
money or influence, we tend to say, “Wow, look at all they have accomplished, they are very
successful.” Is this a good system of measurement? Do things give us everything we need for
this life and th... -
Speaking Forward; Isaiah 41-42
Biblical prophecy can quickly become a hot button topic between even the closest of friends. I
think this is because so many of us try to speak to it, and to our future, using our own dreams,
definitions, and understandings. It is a call for humility. When we begin to know what the Bible
says abo...
