let me check if you remember the verse I taught you yesterday the call from prophet Micah yes can you tell me that famous code of makeup it was act justly love tenderly and more humbly with your God Wow that's correct so you do remember yes Father we remember everything that you teach us very good all right now I'll start with the story of Isaiah the prophet the name Isaiah means God is salvation aptly to his name Isaiah lived his whole life firmly believing that Lord God is the only way to salvation a long long time ago in the kingdom of Judah there lived a man named Isaiah one day as usual he was going to the temple to pray how beautiful is your temple Lord I feel so good every time I come here Isaiah was praying as usual that day he nailed out and closed his eyes to pray but then suddenly he had a vision ah in that vision he was given a deep awareness of the holiness of God the vision also showed him his sins ha no I'm a sinner I live among sinners how am I going to live with this burden God please help me then suddenly one of the seraphs flew to Isaiah with a burning call taken from the altar open your mouth now that this has touched your lips all your sins will be washed away Oh shall I send to proclaim my word Here I am send me go and preach to the people even if they hear my words a game in a game they still won't understand even when they see again and again they still won't notice they have hardened their heart but still speak to them Isaiah was purified by God and called to proclaim his word the newly gained awareness made him aware of the sins of the society in which he lived he saw the poor and weak were oppressed and Exploited he realized that his sacrifices and rituals were simply a show of human glory Hey Hey look isn't that Isaiah son of Amos yes he is but he looks as if a Lightning has struck him come let's go talk to him Isaiah huh what happened Isaiah you look like a ghost I I saw something what did you see I saw a wine yard hahahaha you got shocked by seeing a vine yard stop joking Isaiah tell me what happened I saw a farmer working in a field he tilled his land and planted choice wine in it he then put up a fence around his field in the middle of the field he built a storage house and a vine press the farmer was expecting a good yield of good grapes the follow waited and waited for many days and finally it was time for plucking them yak what's this these grapes are sore was it for these that I worked for so long are you telling a story or explaining a vision it doesn't matter Isaiah you continued what did the farmer do what would you have done if it were you if it was me that I would dig all the old wines and plan you choice wines but the farmer had planted choice wines didn't he well Isaiah tell us what the farmer did the farmer got angry he was upset that all his dedication and hard work to grow good sweet grapes had failed he had taken good care of his wines nurture them water them but even after that the grapes had turned sore so he destroyed the fence and burned the house so that wild animals could graze on his crops do you know what this means I have no idea you tell the meaning Isaiah Foom I'll tell you the Lord God is the farmer and V the people of Israel are the vine yard what's he saying let's go and find out like the farmer God looked after us he released us from slavery he saved us from many disasters but then wanted veto we disobeyed God's laws there is bloodshed everywhere we oppress and exploit the poor come my child let's go in here and speak we kill our old brothers we worship idols against God's laws Hey look over there he seems to be a prophet let's go and listen to what he's saying come let's go and like the farmer in the field God will take away the fence of protection and let our enemies upon us huh what are you saying we offer sacrifices and celebrate all his feast this is God who speaks I despise your feast your singing and dancing vaults me when you stretch your hands I turn my eyes away your hands are covered with blood how can we offer sacrifices without staining our hands without blood it's not the blood of animals I see that your hands are covered with the blood of poor people you burden them with taxes the rich are exploiting the poor you took the money intended for poor hmm what you are saying is making sense oh shut up watch your tongue Isaiah you are going beyond your limits turn to God return to the God of Israel what should we do stop the oppression give justice to the poor protect the vidoes and orphans for that social work not worship it's the work of justice that pleases God not the blood of lambs and bulls your hands are stained with blood wash yourselves clean from that day I say a priest the Word of God in Jerusalem added surrounding areas a huge number of people became his disciples the Lord God is holy we must live according to his loss but rich law master there are so many there is only one law that God gave us the one God gave us through Moses on Mount Sinai pure o Israel you shall love God with all your heart with all your strength he will purify you from your sins in the meantime King Ahaz were facing threats from the neighbouring countries an army of soldiers from Syria were marching towards Judah from the north Edom i'ts had already crossed the southern border and the Philistines were closing in from the West a 'has went to the temple of god Molech and he did the unthinkable he sacrificed his own son King Ahaz the great god of Molech is pleased with you he asks you to send messages to the north to his servant and ruler chiclet by lisa of assyria thank you that is the only way only the king of Assyria can help me now now go ahead the sacrifice of your son will not be in vain hahahaha the king of Assyria had become very strong by capturing the nearby nations but he worshipped idols like god Molech in the meantime God's and I say our to uh us who was returning to his palace after the sacrifice King Ahaz huh you are Isaiah right yes I know what you had been up to huh how do you know God sees everything he sent me here to deliver a message what is it the Lord is displeased with you who told you to sacrifice your own son didn't you love him huh you don't know what's going on we are being attacked from all sides only the war god Molech can help us now god Molech fool do you think the Lord will abandon his people then how is it that we are being attacked from all sides do not be afraid the Lord will take care of pecker and resines soon how soon they are marching towards us and by the time your God acts the cities of Jerusalem will be captured you need to have faith in a Lord instead of offering sacrifices to those idols God will never let them destroy Jerusalem his dwelling place how can you be so sure you are just a common man hmm if you're not convinced then ask for a sign you can ask for anything you want King Ahaz was a crooked man he knew that if he asked for a sign and if he gets it then he won't be able to seek the help of King Assyria if his God doesn't keep the promise then I'll lose everything huh I don't need his God I have the war god Molech on my side I'll give some reason and send him away no I don't need a sign and I will not test the God of Israel you can go away and mind your own business hah you are so crook'd do you think the Lord wouldn't see that you know that if you get a sign from Lord then you won't be able to join hands with that idol-worshipping king of Assyria huh how did he know the Lord Himself is giving you the sign a young woman will shortly deliver a child whose name will be Emmanuel before this child knows the difference between good and evil your enemies will be destroyed but because of your wickedness Assyria whom you trust now will turn to attack you but King Ahaz did not believe Isaiah and send him away he sent his messengers to the king of Assyria the King agreed to help under two conditions one that he will be a huge tribute to Assyria every year and the second that he will place the idols of his God all over Judah King Ahaz agreed to those conditions King Ahaz won the war with the help of Assyrian army but his country had lost its freedom Master the lad is filled with idols everywhere they are offering sacrifices to acid and gods even at our temple in Jerusalem yes and they are squeezing the poor to pay the tribute hmmm what are we going to do master Judah will be destroyed if this goes on people have forgotten the Lord and all of them are worshipping those idols idols of god Molech don't worry King Ahaz will die shortly and after him a just king will rule this land he will be filled with the Spirit of the Lord and Judah will be filled with the knowledge of God he will destroy all the idols and he will be kind to the poor how soon will it happen master very soon this will happen sooner than you think and like I say I had predicted King Ahaz died shortly his son Hezekiah became the new king of Judah Hezekiah was a kind man and he was filled with the Spirit of the Lord a new chapter had opened in Isaiah's life Master welcome I'm grateful for your presence in this palace peace to you my
