Welcome to "Poetic Reflections on the Book of Isaiah," where the timeless verses of Isaiah come alive in poetic form. In the span of 47 years, Isaiah, a prophet under the reigns of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, passionately delivered messages to a nation estranged from its divine path. Amidst the shadows of idolatry, Isaiah's verses unfold with warnings of impending judgment, echoing the merciful call for his people to return to the embrace of God.
As we navigate these poetic reflections, we delve into the profound teachings of a prophet who, even in the face of adversity, stood as a beacon of divine truth. Isaiah's legacy extends beyond his earthly years, culminating in martyrdom at the age of 92. Through the pages of this collection, we explore the nuanced tapestry of Isaiah's prophecies, a tapestry woven with threads of judgment, mercy, and the anticipation of a promised Messiah. Join us on a poetic journey through the prophetic verses that continue to resonate across the ages.
A book of poetry on the message of the prophet Isaiah.
Poems to ponder.
Not Any Better
What if Isaiah
Was alive today?
What would he think
And what would he say?
Would he speak of God’s judgement
And sound the alarm,
And point to our rebellion
That is causing great harm.
We claim we’ve advanced
With no remorse or gloom,
As we offer to Molock
The fruit of the womb.
Would he proclaim God’s wrath
For our moral decay,
Or would he shake his head
And just walk away.
Just like the days of Noah
Evil floods our land,
Wickedness runs rampant
The enemy in command.
Oh save us precious Father
It is much too hard to bear,
You are the God of mercy
And know that You do care.
