‏ Isaiah 40:12

Evangelical Predictions.

This section reminds us how great and powerful the Lord is. He is Israel’s God and Savior. These verses are here to encourage those who were captives in Babylon. They should trust God even if they are weak and their enemies are strong. No other god can compare with him. We should respect and honor God because he is so much greater than anything else. Even when God shows kindness, like a shepherd, we must remember his greatness and glory.

v. 12: God’s power has no limit. He measures all the water in the world in his hand. He marks out the heavens with a simple span. He gathers up all the dust of the earth as if it is nothing. He balances the mountains and hills like someone using scales. This shows that God created everything with wisdom and strength, and he controls it all easily.
