Genesis 47 / Isaiah 66             Comfort vs. Judgment

1.   Obedience and comfort

He who fears God and obeys His commands will be comforted by God.  He will be a spring of blessings for the whole world when the time comes.  He will provide land for his household.  In addition, he will provide the bread of life for the whole world.

2.   Disobedience and judgment

God esteems those who tremble at His commands and obey them.  He will set a sign to send them to all nations proclaiming the glory of the Lord and leading people to God.  But the hypocrite will be judged and put to shame.

Psalm 47 / Revelation 12:17      War, and Triumph over

The enemy is enraged at and goes off to make war against those who obey God’s commandments and hold to the testimony of the Lord.  Let us triumph over the enemy through faith, for God is the Most High.  Sing a psalm of praise, for all peoples are returning to the Lord.
