As is indicated above, with this sermon we begin a new (and large) section in Isaiah. The theme is really quite simple, for here Isaiah expresses the “burden of the Lord” against the nations that surround Israel and Judah. One by one Isaiah addresses each nation with the divine indictment against it, and then lowers the boom with the announcement of judgment. In the text before us today we will see that his oracle is against Babylon. I will work through the text point by point, following its natural divisions. Isaiah is quite expressive as he sets forth the mind of the Lord. Following that I strive to bring a three-fold application derived from the text, but extremely relevant for this modern age in which we live. We too are on the brink of the greatest moment of judgment in the history of the world. The only difference is that this judgment will conclude this present age, with human destinies hanging in the balance. Like the prophets themselves, I do try to close on an encouraging note for sinner and saint alike. I have been praying that the Lord will really encourage our hearts and prepare us to go forth into this world with the good news.
