Scripture: Isaiah 33 I. God will be known in saving His people. A. In Isaiah 33 God’s people in Jerusalem were in danger – surrounded by the Assyrians.

Scripture: Isaiah 30 I. Why is God waiting? A. He is waiting for your repentance and faith. Jerusalem and its leaders did not trust in God. The LORD in vs. 1 calls the people of Jerusalem “stubborn children, who carry out a plan, but not mine, and who make an alliance, but not of my…
