Conclusion:
God had not forgotten, nor had He forsaken His people! And in these closing verses He reiterates this fact by having Isaiah tell these down trodden people, “…the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding. He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.”
Child of God, He so desires to give you strength and power to face each obstacle that the devil puts in your path, but you need to keep your eyes on your great and powerful Saviour!
Trust Him today, even as Isaiah encouraged his people to do, and know that God is still in control of all things, and that He knows your every burden and care, and He is able to see you through!
What a blessing that is to know! And don’t you allow the adversary to tell you anything otherwise!
