“War Against Jerusalem”

Isaiah, as a boys’ name is pronounced “eye-ZY-ah”. It is of Hebrew origin, and the meaning of Isaiah is “God is salvation”. Biblical: one of the major prophets and writer of the Book of Isaiah. In addition to other passages in the Old Testament, this seems to refer to the first part of the oracle of Isaiah 7, for that is a promise of salvation for the nation from the prophet Isaiah. And the name Isaiah, is a close approximation of Jesus in Hebrew, for it means “Yahweh saves. Yahweh was the national god of ancient Israel and Judah. His origins reach at least to the early Iron Age, and likely to the Late Bronze Age. In the oldest biblical literature, he is a storm-and-warrior deity who leads the heavenly army against Israel’s enemies; at that time, the Israelites worshipped him. English editions of the Bible usually translate Adonay as “Lord” and Yahweh as “LORD.” Yahweh is the name that is most linked to God’s redeeming acts in the history of his chosen people. We know God because of what he has done. When you pray to Yahweh, remember that he is the same God who draws near to save you from the tyranny of sin just as he saved his people from tyrannical slavery in Egypt. Exodus 3:13-15 { And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, what is his name? what shall I say unto them? And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. And God said moreover unto Moses, thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations. }is the first Biblical usage of the name “Yahweh,” and we can see at the end of the passage that it is the name by which God has chosen to be remembered throughout all generations. Both brethren and sistren was equivalent in the 12th and 15th century.
Isaiah is often called ‘The Old Testament Gospel’, and for good reason. The New Testament contains approximately 85 direct quotes from or indirect allusions to this beautiful prophetic book. The name Yeshua means “Yah is my Salvation”; “Yah” is short for “Yahweh”. While “Yeshua” is the common spelling, to emphasize the meaning of the name some spell it Yahshua. The name “Yeshua” does have a meaning and it is much more in line with both New and Old Testament evidence that indicates that was the Messiah’s name. For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many gods and many lords), yet for us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we for Him; and one Master Yeshua the Messiah, through whom are all things, and through whom we live. There is Power in His Name! We are sometimes asked why we often say Yahweh instead of “The LORD” and Yeshua instead of “Jesus”. Much of the reason is that we simply want others to know what God we serve. Most of the time, in the Bible, “God” is simply referred to as either “God” or “The Lord”. However, these are but a couple of His titles. They are not His name. In Most cases where the Bible says, “The Lord”, the original language says His name. A vast variety of reasons, false teachers, preachers, popes, and prophets have capitalized on this ambiguity and so we would like to help clear up the confusion.
Names of God {You really want to see the names in different languages. You can translate each one of these in your foreign language} Some get confused when they hear God’s name in a different language. This is so interesting. I have done it for fun. Just translate other languages. When one of my friends on Facebook use their language. I just go to Google translator and translate. Then I can also respond to them in their language. It is interesting if you take this time to get to know others. Amen!

1 Corinthians 8:5-6 it reads: For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,) but to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
Isaiah Chapter 7. This expression, house of David, refers to the Davidic dynasty, personified in the current king, Ahaz. It was told to the descendent of David that these two evil groups, Israel, and Syria, had made an agreement to overthrow the king of Judah and rule in Jerusalem their selves.

Isaiah Chapter 7:1-25
And it happened in the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, that Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, went up toward Jerusalem to war against it, but could not prevail against it. And it was told the house of David, saying, Syria is confederate with Ephraim. And his heart was moved, and the heart of his people, as the trees of the wood are moved with the wind. Then said the LORD unto Isaiah, Go forth now to meet Ahaz, thou, and Shearjashub thy son, at the end of the conduit of the upper pool in the highway of the fuller’s field; And say unto him, Take heed, and be quiet; fear not, neither be fainthearted for the two tails of these smoking firebrands, for the fierce anger of Rezin with Syria, and of the son of Remaliah. Because Syria, Ephraim, and the son of Remaliah, have taken evil counsel against thee, saying, Let us go up against Judah, and vex it, and let us make a breach therein for us, and set a king during it, even the son of Tabeal: Thus saith the Lord GOD, It shall not stand, neither shall it happened. For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin; and within threescore and five years shall Ephraim be broken, that it be not a people. And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah’s son. If ye will not believe, surely ye shall not be established. Moreover, the LORD spake again unto Ahaz, saying, Ask thee a sign of the LORD thy God; ask it either in the depth, or in the height above. But Ahaz said, I will not ask, neither will I tempt the LORD. And he said, Hear ye now, O house of David; Is it a small thing for you to weary men, but will ye weary my God also? Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. Butter and honey shall he eat, that he may know to refuse the evil, and choose the good. For before the child shall know to refuse the evil, and choose the good, the land that thou abhorrest shall be forsaken of both her kings. The LORD shall bring upon thee, and upon thy people, and upon thy father’s house, days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim departed from Judah; even the king of Assyria. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall hiss for the fly that is in the uttermost part of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria. And they shall come, and shall rest all of them in the desolate valleys, and in the holes of the rocks, and upon all thorns, and upon all bushes. In the same day shall the Lord shave with a razor that is hired, namely, by them beyond the river, by the king of Assyria, the head, and the hair of the feet: and it shall also consume the beard. And it shall come to pass in that day, that a man shall nourish a young cow, and two sheep; And it shall come to pass, for the abundance of milk that they shall give he shall eat butter: for butter and honey shall every one eat that is left in the land. And it shall come to pass in that day, that every place shall be, where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silverlings, it shall even be for briers and thorns. With arrows and with bows shall men come thither; because all the land shall become briers and thorns. And on all hills that shall be digged with the mattock, there shall not come thither the fear of briers and thorns: but it shall be for the sending forth of oxen, and for the treading of lesser cattle.
{Let’s Pray}
Father God, I thank You and praise You for all that You are teaching me from the epistles of Paul and the many lessons I can learn from my Christian brothers and sisters in those early days of the church. I never want to become an obstacle in the lives of my brothers and sisters in Christ or place an obstacle in their path because of the freedom I have found in You. I thank You and praise You that there is nothing in heaven or earth that can separate us from Your love in Jesus. I thank You and praise You for the truths that are contained in Your holy Word. I thank You and praise You that by Your grace You sent Your Son to be born of a virgin and become the full and final atonement for our sin. I thank You that Jesus walked the earth as a Man in Your image and understands the limitations of our humanity. I thank You and praise You that You are for the sinner repenting and Jesus, He helps us in our trials and temptations as we walk with Jesus to eternity and praise Your Name that He is coming back one day, to finalize His authority over sin, the world and Satan. I thank You, praise You and give You all the glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
