The Wondrous Love Of God

Isaiah 54:5  
"For thy Maker is thine husband; the LORD of hosts is his name; 
and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of 
the whole earth shall he be called."

        We have heard the exiles summoned to leave Babylon, and have beheld the Savior becoming the sin-bearer. Here our attention is recalled to the still desolate condition of Jerusalem. Jehovah says, Sing, but Israel replies that she cannot sing so long as she lies desolate. In reply God declares His inalienable love: (love that is not transferable). He is their husband still and has sworn that the waters of death and destruction shall never be able to separate them from Himself. His kindness and mercy is everlasting, and His covenant of peace shall forever be.
        In the closing paragraph, Isa. 54:11-17, we behold the chosen city emerging from her heap of ruins. Watched by the eye of the great Architect, wrought by unseen hands, tested by the line and plummet of righteousness, she arises to fulfill her mission to the world. To inspired hearts it seems as though her common stones are jewels. Her children are taught of the Lord. Every accusing voice is hushed. All weapons of destruction are no longer. The New Jerusalem seems to have come down from heaven. 
        Amen!!
