You have heard stories about people who have claimed that they were abducted by extraterrestrial beings. As if they are trying to find saviours coming from the sky! Sometimes people create their own gods to give meaning and purpose to their lives. It was the same in Isaiah’s time. The nations worshipped gods of their own making. So the living and true God commanded people everywhere to discard these false and powerless gods and look at Him alone. He drew sharp contrast between Himself and all other saviours. The imaginary gods, then and now, do not tell us who we are, why we are here, and how we can be delivered from our sins. But the one true God does. He became flesh in the person of Jesus Christ. Let us seek our help from Him.
“Lord, help me come to You and You alone for all my needs.”
Our only hope here below is help from God above.
