Isaiah 18 and the Future of America
America Brings A Present to the Lord
Isaiah 18:7
In that time shall the present be brought unto the LORD of hosts of a people scattered and peeled, and from a people terrible from their beginning hitherto; a nation meted out and trodden under foot, whose land the rivers have spoiled, to the place of the name of the LORD of hosts, the mount Zion.
What is the present? The Bible does not say here. It would be nice to know. One possibility is that the present is gold, silver or materials to build the third temple in Jerusalem. It could also represent all of the Jewish people living in America. They are worth infinitely more than gold and silver. There is no greater present that you can give to God other than yourself. Consider the parable Jesus told:
| Luke 15 |
| 11 | And he said, A certain man had two sons: |
| 12 | And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living. |
| 13 | And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living. |
| 14 | And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want. |
| 15 | And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine. |
| 16 | And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat: and no man gave unto him. |
| 17 | And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger! |
| 18 | I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, |
| 19 | And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants. |
| 20 | And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him. |
| 21 | And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son. |
| 22 | But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet: |
| 23 | And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry: |
| 24 | For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry. |
| 25 | Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard music and dancing. |
| 26 | And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant. |
| 27 | And he said unto him, Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound. |
| 28 | And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and entreated him. |
| 29 | And he answering said to his father, Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends: |
| 30 | But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf. |
| 31 | And he said unto him, Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine. |
| 32 | It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found. |
The father waited anxiously for his son and wished every day for him to come back home. God doesn't need our gold, he wants us to return to him. If millions of Jews returned to Israel it would be a great present unto the Lord and worth more than all the gold and silver in the world. Isaiah 33:6 tells us "the fear of the LORD is his treasure". We need not just a great physical Aliyah (a going up referring to immigration to the land of Israel) but a great spiritual one.
