Settle the Matter
Read Isaiah 1:19–20
(19) If you are willing and obedient, you will eat the good things of the land; (20) but if you resist and rebel, you will be devoured by the sword.” For the mouth of the Lord has spoken. Isaiah 1:19–20

God ends this message with a decision.
The people have a choice to make.
Will they continue resisting Him?
Or will they surrender?
And honestly, that's still the question today.
At some point, every person has to settle the matter.
Not with their parents.
Not with their spouse.
Not with their church.
With God.
Some people need to settle the matter of salvation.
Others need to settle the matter of surrender.
But either way, the invitation remains the same:
Come to Jesus.
Stop pretending.
Stop resisting.
Come clean.
And let Him clean up your mess.
