Isaiah 7:11-12, 14 “Ask thee a sign of the Lord thy God, ask it either in the depth, or in the height above. But King Ahaz said, I will not ask neither will [tempt] the Lord. Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign: Behold a virgin shall conceive and bear a son and shall call him Immanuel.” Commentary: King Ahaz was under siege! Juda was threatened by foreign armies! Yet he was a wise man! He answered Isaiah wisely! He was not going to tempt the Lord with unbelief! Let the Lord give me a sign I will not request it! Are we sign seekers in our prayers? All our signs are listed in your Bible! Lord let’s make a deal! If I win the lottery then I will serve you! Are you a sign seeker prayer? Do not pile on stuff for the Lord he would never approve! Be thankful for what you have! Your two fish and five loaves can feed the multitudes if God blesses it! The Lord sent King Ahaz a sign for the troubles and temptations of evil men! Lead us not into tempting God but deliver us from evil! When you pray for the lost and do something sacrificially to support ministries the salvation of the lost is a sign! So what was the sign given to King Ahaz? A virgin shall bear a son! This happened hundreds of years after the death of King Ahaz! Verse 15 goes on to say Jesus will refuse the evil and choose the good! Jesus had to make a choice to leave heaven and suffer on a Cross for our sin! That is real love! To deliver us from tempting God with our sin! To take our judgment! He could have stayed in heaven! Let us perish! Where was the first sin committed? Not in the Garden of Eden but in heaven! Lucifer had it made as choir director of heaven yet wanted more! He wanted to be God! Men on earth who reject Christ today want to be God! This is tempting God with their sin! Judgment follows unrepentant sin through the Son of God Jesus Christ! Is he your Savior or judge? People are either a sign in heaven or a sign in hell depending on what they did with Christ the sign from heaven! James & Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
