This passage raises the question about who will be exalted ….. God or man. The prophet, Isaiah, who wrote it, shows us that the day is coming when everyone will worship the God. Isaiah sees what life is like when God is exalted. Like a journey, seeing the destination encourages the travellers.

Sadly, the people in Isaiah’s time had been drawn away from God to other things and therefore he rejected them. Whenever man refuses to exalt God man ends up exalting himself. The Scriptures say …’whoever exalts himself will be humbled and whoever humbles himself will be exalted’. This points us to Jesus Christ who humbled himself to death on a cross in order to save us. He is now exalted as the King of kings and Lord of lords.
