以赛亚书［第十四章］|Book of Isaiah 14【审判中为子民存留的安慰】
28/04/2022
前言：
以赛亚书14：最近我们纪念了神的节期逾越节，当晚聚会的一段《出埃及记》的影片很生动地让我们看到，在神对埃及施行审判的时候，神的子民如何被保守......
一、神对以色列的安慰（V1-2）
先前掳掠以色列南北国的外邦人，神要使他们成为服事以色列人，并把以色列人带回到应许之地的人。这不仅发生在波斯居鲁士大帝允许神的子民回归建殿的时期，也发生在今天，列国都要来服事以色列。这是神在末后审判中神为祂百姓存留的安慰！
二、神对巴比伦的审判（V3-23）
1. 以色列要对巴比伦唱哀歌（V3-8）
巴比伦王国的权柄终要衰败，受巴比伦权势欺压的百姓要得着释放，并为此欢呼！
2. 曾经的王要对巴比伦唱哀歌（V9-15）
列国的君王都很惊讶，竟然连巴比伦王国也会倾倒。巴比伦权势里的骄傲，就如撒旦的骄傲一般，最终这些活在权势要面对永远的沉沦，可怕的审判。
3. 看见的人要对巴比伦唱哀歌（V16-21）
残暴、混乱、贪婪的巴比伦势力，最终会被厌弃，而且神要把这个巴比伦的权势连根拔起，不会再让它一代又一代地传递下去。
4. 神对巴比伦最终的判语（V22-23）
按着预言所说的，物质界的巴比伦王国已经从地球上消失了，而属灵界的巴比伦王国最终也会如此。
三、神对亚述的审判（V24-27）
残忍对待以色列的亚述国，必遭神的审判！
四、神对非利士的审判（V28-31）
非利士人要因亚述被审判就喜乐，神的审判要再次透过亚述临到非利士。
总结（V32）：
在列国最终都要遭受到神的审判的时刻，神的子民不可再透过人来办法来保护自己免受灾害。因为审判其实都是从神而来的，所以神的子民唯有从一切的罪恶中回转归向神，才能够重新得着‘神要亲自建立锡安’的应许，在世界的各种动荡中得着神的保护和安慰！
Isaiah 14: The Comfort for the People in Judgment
GK611 Morning Devotion
28/4/2022
Speaker: IP Moses + Rev David Tan
Introduction:
Recently we commemorated God's feast of Passover, on that night there was a video on "Exodus" which showed us how God's people were saved when God was judging Egypt…
I. God’s comfort to Israel (V1-2)
The Gentiles who had previously captured Israel's northern and southern kingdoms, God will make them serve the Israelites along with bringing the Israelites back to the Promised Land. This happened not only when Cyrus the Great of Persia allowed God's people to return to build the temple, but also in today's context when all nations are going to serve Israel. This is God's comfort for His people in the last judgment!
II. God's judgment on Babylon (V3-23)
1. Israel will sing lamentation over Babylon (V3-8)
The power of the Babylonian kingdom will eventually fall, and the people oppressed by the power of Babylon will be released and rejoice!
2. The former king will sing lamentations to Babylon (V9-15)
The kings of the nations were amazed that even the kingdom of Babylon would fall. The pride in the Babylonian powers is like the pride of Satan. In the end, those living in the powers will face eternal punishment and terrible judgment.
3. Those who see will sing lamentations to Babylon (V16-21)
The cruel, chaotic, and greedy Babylonian power will eventually be abandoned, and God will uproot this Babylonian power, and will not let it be passed on from generation to generation.
4. God's final judgment on Babylon (V22-23)
According to the prophecy, the material world of the kingdom of Babylon has disappeared from the earth, and so will the spiritual world of the kingdom of Babylon eventually.
III. God's judgment on Assyria (V24-27)
Assyria that has cruelly treated Israel, will be judged by God!
IV. God's judgment on the Philistines (V28-31)
The Philistines shall not rejoice because Assyria was judged, and God's judgment will come to the Philistines once again through Assyria.
Conclusion (V32)：
Eventually all nations will go through God’s judgment, God’s people can no longer use human means to protect themselves from disasters. Because judgment comes from God, only by turning back to God from all sins can the people of God be able to regain the promise of 'God will build Zion personally', receiving God's protection and comfort in all the world disasters!
