HE WILL MAKE THE CROOKED PLACES STRAIGHT
Isaiah 45:2 (KJV)
Whenever we are going through trials or troubles, it is good to turn to God’s Word. God gives power to the faint (Isaiah 40:29), and can renew those who are weary and worn (Matthew 11:28). Those who wait on the Lord are renewed (Isaiah 40:31), and He can make the crooked places straight (Isaiah 45:2).
In Isaiah 45:2, we find these words:
“I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron:”
Isaiah is speaking to the Persian king Cyrus, prophesizing that God will use Cyrus to conquer Babylon and release the Jewish exiles, returning them to their homeland. He told Cyrus that God would go before them and they would be blessed. His hand would lead them, and when they get to the crooked places that He would make them straight. We should never be perplexed or troubled, because just as He was with Cyrus, He is also with us. We have the assurance that all of our needs will be met. It is my fervent prayer today that we know that God is not only with us, but He can do all things and do all things well (Mark 7:37). Trust, depend on, and lean on Him. We are never alone. Whatever crooked or rough places we face, or whatever mountains are in our way, all we have to do is trust God.
