Isaiah 30:23

Copyright Ó 2015 J. Neely
Isaiah 30:23

23 Then shall he give [nathan] the rain [matar] of thy seed [zera`], that thou shalt sow [zara`] the ground ['adamah] withal; and bread [lechem] of the increase [tabuw'ah] of the earth ['adamah], and it shall be fat [dashen] and plenteous [shamen]: in that day [yowm] shall thy cattle [miqneh] feed [ra`ah] in large [rachab] pastures [kar].   KJV-Interlinear

23 And he will give rain for the seed with which you sow the ground, and bread, the produce of the ground, which will be rich and plenteous. In that day your livestock will graze in large pastures,  ESV

Your life and future and destiny are a direct result of your compliance, or lack of it, with Gods plan and design.

Jesus Christ is the provider of everything. He provides the rain, which is symbolic of a life-giving resource. You sow the seed in the ground, which is your work. The bread is the resulting production from that seed, after it has been harvested and ground into flour, and made into bread.

Rich and plenteous, is terminology of success.

Livestock grazing in large pastures, is terminology of wealth, great wealth.

All of this blessing, is not a result of your work, or of your effort, or of your attitude.

All of this blessing, is a direct result of your compliance with Gods plan, and your obedience in following that plan. Which means your pursuit of a daily study, your living in the environment of fellowship, your advancement through the spiritual process, toward spiritual maturity.

These events are directed toward the final days of history, wherein after the tribulation, and after all of the destruction that will occur in that tribulation, and after people have turned away from the things of the world, and turned back toward Christ, then in the millennium, prosperity will explode for everyone.

The phrase, in that day, ties this passage to the end of the tribulation and the beginning of the millennium.

But this entire passage, ties life for each and every one of us, to our consistency in pursuing our spiritual life, and the results that God will provide because of our compliance with His plan.

This does not mean that you will become wealthy in this life. But it does mean that compliance with Gods plan in this life, means the certainty of great success, and prosperity, and wealth in eternity.





These studies are a part of the massive daily study web site at DailyBibeStudy.Org, and are written, so that you can come to Christ if you have not done so already, and therefore not be lost forever. 

And if you have already believed in Christ, then these studies are written so you can learn and understand and grow in your spiritual life, so that you can come to the full knowledge of Christ, so that you can fulfill your meaning and purpose in life as God intended for you, and so you can qualify for a phenomenal eternal reward which you will have forever. 

To ignore this opportunity to pursue a daily study means you will be incomplete, unfulfilled and you will lose out, big time.

The Daily Bible Study is online, making it possible as never before in all of human history, to advance in ones relationship with God, through Christ, and to complete yourself beyond your imagination.

But you have to decide to make that commitment.  No one else can study for you.  You have to do that yourself.
