How You Get What You Want

Summary

In this sermon, the speaker explores God's judgment as portrayed in Isaiah, focusing on the metaphorical "city of man" - a system of worldly thinking that excludes God. The text references Isaiah's prophetic vision of divine judgment, which ultimately serves not to destroy, but to rescue God's people from a world that falsely believes it can thrive without divine intervention. The key takeaway is that God's judgment is not merely punitive, but redemptive, designed to dismantle human self-sufficiency and restore humanity's dependence on and relationship with God.
