May 22 – No Benefit - Isaiah 30:1-5
This is a diverse chapter. It starts with a message to a rebellious people. He calls them children. They carry out plans that are not his. They form alliance with evil not listening to the Holy Spirit and this causes them sin heap sin upon sin.
They went to Egypt for protection that will fail. Even though they had conferences in Zoan and Hanes everyone will be put to shame. The Egyptians will be no help or advantage. The Assyrians will defeat the Israel and Egyptian alliance. The Lord is our protection not any resource or power of man.
