What is the main message Isaiah is giving from God? ›

God is both the judge and the savior. This means that God has a plan to make all things right in the end, and that a necessary part of that process is declaring what is not yet right. This is the message of Isaiah the prophet. The judgment of God declares what is broken; the promise of God is to heal.

The Lord exhorts his people to give him their ear: “Listen to me, you who pursue righteousness, you who seek the Lord (verse 1).” People usually listen carefully to a doctor when their life is in peril and he outlines the necessary treatment. The Lord is giving assurance to his people. The Lord is kind to his people.

As students learned about sins of the Israelites in Isaiah's day, they discovered that our outward acts of devotion to God are more meaningful to Him when the intentions of our hearts are pure. They also learned principles pertaining to the consequences of choosing to be righteous or to sin.

Isaiah is one of the most well-known prophets in the Bible for his prediction of the coming of the Messiah, who would redeem His people from their sins. A book of stark contrasts, Isaiah juxtaposes terrifying warnings of judgement and destruction with uplifting promises of hope and prosperity.

Isaiah Teaches:

Like Israel, our sin separates us from our Holy God. In His mercy, God calls us to return to Him and be healed, cleansed, forgiven, and fully restored to relationship with Him. The Lord is calling you today to reason together with Him. Though your sin is like scarlet, He will make it white as snow.

Isaiah's vision

He became agonizingly aware of God's need for a messenger to the people of Israel, and, despite his own sense of inadequacy, he offered himself for God's service: “Here am I! Send me.” He was thus commissioned to give voice to the divine word.

The sovereign Lord is watching. A saving God. But warning gives way to merciful promises of salvation. The message of the book of Isaiah to the world is that there is indeed a Savior, the Messiah, who has humbly, painfully, and gloriously won salvation for sinners and for all who would trust in him (Isa.

The central theme of Isaiah's teachings is that no sinner is beyond redemption. Throughout the book of Isaiah, the prophet conveys God's message of judgment and salvation. Despite the people's sin and disobedience, God offers forgiveness and redemption to those who repent and turn to Him.

Promise #3 – The Promise of His Almighty Presence.

I said, You are my servant; I have chosen you and not rejected you. So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand” (Isaiah 41:9-10).

In Isaiah 46:13, 51:5-8 and 63:1, God links His righteousness to His salvation. In Isaiah 63:1, God says: “… I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save.” The above verses do not mean God's righteousness is only His gracious salvation.
