Chappell has said that "many of us never think seriously of Christ or of his salvation until we get into some kind of trouble. Our little baby is near death and we want help. We ourselves are nearing the crossing and we are afraid. A cyclone is on hand and we feel the need of a refuge. But the same winds that carry the clouds away carry away our penitence and our prayers. There are few folks so hopeless as those who never want Christ except when they are threatened by some kind of diasaster." Israel had become so corrupt in her idolatries and rebellions that God had to use drastic measures to get her to look up. God's people tiad been in captivity in Babylon for decades. These years of captivity had Succeeded in turning them away from idolatry. God is now ready to bring them back home. God's word comes to his prophet. His message is to be call to comfort.

Many people have lost hope. They do not believe life can be any better fotj them. God's word is to "Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem..." Jerusalem here represents His people who are in Babylon. . The prophet was to publicly proclaim God's message of encouragement to His people. Their hard ships' were coming to an end. Their sins of idolartry, corruption, and rebellion were pardoned. They had suffered for their sins long enough. The call to comfort is a theme running through Isaiah chapters 40-66. In verses 27-31 of chapter 40, the people are reminded of God's care. Care of Creator, Isaiah 40: 27-31 , God's people had not kept their faith in Him. They thought surely God had forgotten them. After all, years and years had gone by and God had not intervened. They are rebuked by the prophet. Can it be that they really do not know that God is an everlasting God? Does God change everytime man changes? Is not God the same God who had divided the sea and had delivered His people out, of Egyptian bondage? Is not God the Lord? Is He not the Creator of the universe? Does this God get tired, exhausted, and faint? Is this Creator limited in his knowledge and understanding? Verses 29-31 answer these questions. God not only creates but he gives strength to the weak. Many fail to ask God to save them because they are afraid they could not continue in the Christian life.

In this life of difficulties and hardships, even "the youth shall faint and be. weary, Young .men shall utterly fall." Both young . and old find life too much for them at times. But there is a solution. "They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint." "Waiting" means con fidence in the ability and goodness of God. It is to trust God and lean on Him. It does not mean to sit passively by while God does every detail. It means that man fits into God's plan for him in all things. The man who "waits" upon the Lord is the man who is going to be busy doing God's will. These verses from Isaiah have look forward to a new beginning. The New Testament counter-part to this is related in the next passage from Galatians. Coming of Christ, Galatians 4 : 1-6 Each one of us has ex perienced a bondage to sin. We were under the law and unable to experience genuine freedom until something was done to set us free. The law had its purpose. The law served its purpose.

The law was given to make us aware of sin, Galatians 2:16 says, "Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ." This means that a man does not come into right standing with God by doing the things which the law demands. Galatians 3:13 tells us thai "Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us." So "when the fulness of time was come,' God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, to redeem them that were under the law." NoW we are free, in Christ. We have received an adoption of sons. This is not merely a legal status, but God has sent the Spirit of His Son to indwell our hearts. This Spirit of sonship causes us to cry out Abba, Father!
