Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, ye that are escaped of the nations: they have no knowledge that set up the wood of their graven image, and pray unto a god that cannot save. Tell ye, and bring them near, yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the LORD? and there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside me. Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else. I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And there is no God else beside me, a just God and a Saviour. there is none beside me. Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else. I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear. Glory be...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Surely, shall one say, in the LORD have I righteousness and strength even to him shall men come; and all that are incensed against him shall be ashamed. In the LORD shall all the seed of Israel be justified, and shall glory.
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, which are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the waters of Judah, which swear by the name of the LORD, and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth, nor in righteousness. There always were false professors, and I suppose there always will be till Christ comes. A Judas was among the...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
For they call themselves of the holy city, and stay themselves upon the God of Israel; The LORD of hosts is his name. They profess to trust him, but they do not love him; “they call themselves of the holy city,” but they certainly are not holy citizens. Ah me that God should have to speak to men upon such a matter as this! It is self-evidently...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
I have declared the former things from the beginning; and they went forth out of my mouth, and I shewed them; I did them suddenly, and they came to pass. There is no better proof that God is God than that his prophecies have been fulfilled. Only the eternal can see into the future. He has done so, and every word of his either has been fulfilled,...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Because I knew that thou art obstinate, and thy neck is an iron sinew, and thy brow brass; I have even from the beginning declared it to thee: before it came to pass I shewed it thee: lest thou shouldest say, Mine idol hath done them, and my graven image, and my molten image, hath commanded them. See the care of God towards the most obstinate of...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Thou hast heard, see all this; and will not ye declare it? I have shewed thee new things from this time, even hidden things, and thou didst not know them. They are created now, and not from the beginning, even before the day when thou heardest them not; lest thou shouldest say, Behold, I knew them. Yea, thou heardest not; yea, thou knewest not;...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
For my name’s sake will I defer mine anger, and for my praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off. “I cannot spare thee for thine own sake; but I will spare thee for my name’s sake. I cannot spare thee because of anything good in thee; but I will spare thee because of good in myself.” If God can glorify himself by your salvation, he...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction. Thou sinful one, yet one of his own children, he will refine thee again and again, and he will glorify himself by saving thee.
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
For mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I do it: for how should my name be polluted? and I will not give my glory unto another. This verse ought to ring like music in the ear of one who is seeking mercy, and who cannot find out how mercy can come to him.
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Hearken unto me, O Jacob and Israel, my called; I am he; I am the first, I also am the last. Mine hand also hath laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand hath spanned the heavens: when I call unto them, they stand up together. What a great God is he whose right hand spanned the heavens, making the arch of the sky, as it were, with the...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
All ye, assemble yourselves, and hear, which among them hath declared these things? He still dwells upon prophecy. God claims that he is God because he foretold all that happened, which the idol gods could not do.
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
The LORD hath loved him: he will do his pleasure on Babylon, and his arm shall be on the Chaldeans. I, even I, have spoken; yea, I have called him: I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous. Come ye near unto me, hear ye this, I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Then had thy peace been as a river, and thy righteousness as the waves of the sea: thy seed also had been as the sand, and the offspring of thy bowels like the gravel thereof; his name should not have been cut off nor destroyed from before me. All manner of possible good would have been yours had you not rebelled against God; and as you have lost...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Go ye forth of Babylon, flee ye from the Chaldeans, with a voice of singing declare ye, tell this, utter it even to the end of the earth, say ye, The LORD hath redeemed his servant Jacob. What a grand message for anyone to tell! Tell it, tell it, tell it everywhere, that Jehovah hath redeemed his people.
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And they thirsted not when he led them through the deserts: Neither shall you thirst, O redeemed one, when you are in the desert! Isa_48:21. He caused the waters to flow out of the rock for them: Most unlikely places shall yield you succor. Isa_48:21. He clave the rock also, and the waters gushed out. And yet, to finish up the chapter, stands this...

There is no peace, saith the LORD, unto the wicked. O God, have mercy upon us, and let us not be numbered with them!
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; It is very remarkable how constantly the isles are spoken of in this Book of Isaiah, as if it had been foreseen that, in these far-off islands of the sea, the name of Jesus would be greatly magnified. “Listen,” says the Messiah, “O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far.”...
