Isaiah 9:8-10:19
In this passage, Isaiah is describing the judgement that is falling on Israel and Syria for being arrogant and trying to work together to invade Israel. God says he will use Assyria to punish them. And Assyria does come to conquer. However, Assyria's leader is also arrogant. He thinks he took over because of his own greatness. So God will put him in his place too.
Judgement is a word that made me nervous. Sometimes it still does. Someday God is going to judge me! But just before panic sets in, I remember that Jesus has made me innocent. Because of Jesus, I don't have to be afraid of Judgement. He justified me so that I could start to become like Him. Thank you Jesus.
