Isaiah 2:10-19
10 Enter into the rock, and hide thee in the dust, for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of his majesty.
11 The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.
12 For the day of the LORD of hosts [shall be] upon every [one that is] proud and lofty, and upon every [one that is] lifted up; and he shall be brought low:
13 And upon all the cedars of Lebanon, [that are] high and lifted up, and upon all the oaks of Bashan,
14 And upon all the high mountains, and upon all the hills [that are] lifted up,
15 And upon every high tower, and upon every fenced wall,
16 And upon all the ships of Tarshish, and upon all pleasant pictures.
17 And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be made low: and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.
18 And the idols he shall utterly abolish.
19 And they shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth, for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of his majesty, when he ariseth to shake terribly the earth.
OBSERVATION QUESTIONS
1) Who does the Lord tell to "hide in the dust, for fear of the Lord"? Why? (v.10-11)
2) Who will the Day of the Lord be a terror to? (v.12-16)
3) What will become of the prideful and their idols on the Day of The Lord? Who alone will be exalted on that day? (v.17-19)
APPLICATION QUESTIONS
4) Have you trusted in anyone, or anything, more than you have trusted in the Lord? If so, who or what are those things?
5) What will you do to restore, or begin, right relationship with the Lord, if you have relied on anything, or anyone, other than the Lord, during your life?
PRINCIPLES
6) Pride is exalting anyone, or anything, above the Lordship of Christ.
7) The Lord will judge the proud in heart when He establishes His kingdom on earth.
8) Humility (complete dependence upon the Lord) is what will save us from judgment after His return to this earth.
