Q4. Creator of the Ends of the Earth

Recommended Posts

Q4. (Isaiah 40:21-31). In this passage on the "Creator of the ends of the earth," which words are repeated in verses 28-31. What application are we disciples to derive from this passage so that we might understand God's might as Creator?

Weary is the primary word in these verses. He compares our weakness and weariness to His strength that holds us up. According to the passage, weariness is inevidible in His creation; even youths whose vitality and strength we tend to admire, He says WILL grow weary. This is then compared to the LORD who will NOT grow weary. Not only that but He possess the strength to hold and strengthen those whose hope is in Him. He provides the strength for us to walk, run and persevere. He created and sustains. Its comforting to know that weariness is not a bad thing but a sign for me to depend on Him. For that I am thankful.

They words are not, grow, tired, weary, strength, they, will, the, He, of, and.

As disciples, to be able to understand Gods might as the Creator according to this passage we must put all our hope in Him who is able to give us strength and renew it daily even in the face of any tiredness or weariness. He knows everything about us even before they happen. He is the I am who I am, The everlasting God.

Isaiah 40:21-31; "Have ye not known? have ye not heard? hath it not been told you from the beginning? have ye not understood from the foundations of the earth? It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in: That bringeth the princes to nothing; he maketh the judges of the earth as vanity.

Yea, they shall not be planted; yea, they shall not be sown: yea, their stock shall not take root in the earth: and he shall also blow upon them, and they shall wither, and the whirlwind shall take them away as stubble.To whom then will ye liken me, or shall I be equal? saith the Holy One.

Lift up your eyes on high, and behold who hath created these things, that bringeth out their host by number: he calleth them all by names by the greatness of his might, for that he is strong in power; not one faileth. Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel, My way is hid from the LORD, and my judgment is passed over from my God? Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that 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"

there some words that's repeated are; not, and, are, there is, and it is. We Christians or disciples can follow the Lord's Law and follow his rules for being an good follower, and the Lord is an awesome Lord our savior.

21 Do you not know?

Have you not heard?

Has it not been told you from the beginning?

Have you not understood since the earth was founded?

22 He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth,

and its people are like grasshoppers.

He stretches out the heavens like a canopy,

and spreads them out like a tent to live in.

23 He brings princes to naught

and reduces the rulers of this world to nothing.

24 No sooner are they planted,

no sooner are they sown,

no sooner do they take root in the ground,

than he blows on them and they wither,

and a whirlwind sweeps them away like chaff.

Q4. (Isaiah 40:21-31). In this passage on the "Creator of the ends of the earth," which words are repeated in verses 28-31?

 A. Does not faint or grow weary; shall not faint or grow weary.

What application are we disciples to derive from this passage so that we might understand God's might as Creator?

B. v.28  Because He does not faint or grow weary, there is no searching of His understanding. His promise to His children in v.31, that as we look to Him, rely on His strength and hope in Him, we shall mount up to Him in closeness, shall run and not be weary, walk and not faint or become tired.

I'm so thankful that He understands our frailty. Jesus on earth Who was fully God and fully man, got tired, thirsty, hungry, sleepy. Normal human needs. His strength in us, will keep us moving in the right direction and keep us going when without Him, we would faint and quit!

 The most often repeated word is weary (4x), tired (2x), strength (2x). God is the Creator and He is too big compared to our puny self. While we become weary and tired, the Lord does not. He is strong and He remains strong all the time. But we who are weak, when wait on the Lord, our weakness is turned into strength. That’s what He told Paul. In Paul’s weakness, God’s strength is perfected. Jesus said, Come to Me all who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest.

 Our God is El Olam, the Everlasting God, who created and sustains everything by His power. We get so worked up with the mountains before us, but in the presence of the Lord, those mountains will melt like wax. Rather than looking up at the mountains from our perspective, it is so important that we soar up high like the eagles. From that vantage point, those mountains would seem so small. His grace is so sufficient for our lives. He is the El Shaddai – the all sufficient one, who is able to meet our need much more than we are able to think or imagine.

The words repeated are "weary" and "faint" and "strength".

The applications we should derive from this passage is that God does not grow faint or weary like man often does. He can renew our strength and cause us to run and not get tired. God gives us that strength so we need to rely on Him.

Repeated words found in verses 28 to 31 are: the LORD in 28 and 31. Fainteth in 28 is derived from the root faint  which is found in 29 and 31.  The word weary is in verses 28, 30, and 31.  Strength is found in 29 and repeated in verse 31.

As disciples we need to understand that 'He that sitteth upon the circle of the earth', He is the creator of everything. He alone can make or He can break.  He alone is El Shaddai, the Almighty God.  He has the power to do as He pleases.  Verse 22 declares that 'the inhabitants thereof (the earth) are as grasshoppers'.  Have no value without Him.

There is nothing hidden from Him.  He sees and understands the conditions of every man's heart and deals with him accordingly.  But He gives grace to the humble. Those who will trust in Him and wait on Him will have their strength renewed to do exploits in every area of their lives.  I AM THAT I AM has total and complete control over everything and everyone.

Every other god has to be taken care of, has to be moved, has to be put in its place.  The owner has to do everything for IT.  It is a thing made from something that YAHWEH created.  If we recognise this one fact, then we will give complete allegiance to the one and only  Great God.

This basically means that God our Creator will give us His strength and power when we seek Him, love Him and worship Him. It means that once we hope in the LORD, our God, He will empower us and renew us so that we too can soar like eagles and live with the power of His might. "they will run and not grow weary, and walk and not be faint."

The words 'weary and 'faint' are used repeatedly.   The most vigorous and powerful men may faint under strain,and utterly fail, but those "inner court" Christains have sabbath rest because they are now in the holies of holies, siting in heavenly places with Christ.

Tired and weary. God is not going to grow tired and weary. He never has and never will. Even youths grow tired and weary but God promises refreshing for those who will hope and trust in him. 

We can't exhaust God. God is Always on his job at all times. When humans get tired of their job at the end of day. God never gets tired of doing his job. He is always Faithful to fulfill what he promised.

Tired and weary are repeated.

That when we are tired and weary no matter how strong we think we are, God’s strength renews us, so that we don’t stumble or fall.
