Isaiah
30:29
29 Ye shall have a song [shiyr], as in the night [layil] when a holy [qadash] solemnity [chag] is kept [qadash]; and gladness [simchah] of heart [lebab], as when one
goeth [halak] with a pipe [chaliyl] to come [bow'] into the
mountain [har] of the LORD [Yahovah], to the mighty One [tsuwr] of Israel [Yisra'el]. KJV-Interlinear
29 You shall have a song as in the night
when a holy feast is kept, and gladness of heart, as when one sets out to the
sound of the flute to go to the mountain of the LORD, to the Rock of Israel. ESV
Even though this
study is not scheduled to be posted until Monday, events are unfolding in
Paris, this Friday evening, as I begin writing. Regardless of the evil that
forces its way into this world, when it is all said and done, those who belong
to Christ will not only have the last say, but also the last and best song of
victory, to sing in their heart.
The song, is one of
victory and celebration.
This is a song of
recognition of Christ, in reference to a holy feast.
The Jewish feasts
typically began at sunset, or about 6 PM. As the Jewish day began at 6 PM and
ended at 6 PM the next evening. Our current calendar has a days beginning and
ending at twelve midnight.
The feasts are
rituals and celebrations of worship, focusing on the Messiah, who is Jesus
Christ, and Gods overall plan and design. And, of bringing truth and
understanding, through Bible doctrine, and the development of the individual
spiritual life, resulting in the gladness of heart, otherwise known as
spiritual maturity and the peace and contentment that results.
The mountain of
the Lord, refers to the vastness of truth that is contained in, and available
through, Bible doctrine.
And the Rock of
Israel is the one true God, and Messiah, and Savior, namely Jesus Christ.
God’s grace is
often times referred to using the symbolism of music. This is described in the
Psalms, as the music plays on, and thus regardless of the circumstances and
events of this world, God’s grace, and God’s plan continue on unhindered and
uninterrupted.
To follow the
sound of the flute, to the mountain of God, is to follow His grace provision,
through faith, as one advances within their spiritual life to their
completeness, and the fulfillment of each individual’s meaning and purpose in
life.
The world is full
of evil, and it will remain so until the end of human history.
Thus we have Bible
doctrine, and the promise of ultimate deliverance and victory. And evil, will eventually
be erased from existence.
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.
