Isaiah 2

This chapter obviously speaks of a time that is yet to be. “Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.” We haven’t seen this kind of peace yet.

Nations usually end up with a governing system that serves the power hungry individuals who are willing to dispose of their virtue. “What starts wars and fights among you? Is it not because you want many things and are fighting to have them?” [James 4:1 NLV] It’s a “survival of the fittest” struggle. Nobody wins these.

The Lord is setting up His Kingdom in our hearts. In His time, He will set up His earthly kingdom and we will see what Isaiah chapter two was talking about.

And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord’s house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. [Is. 2:2]
