The Marvelous Work of God - Isaiah 29 & Zechariah 8

Summary

This teaching is a biblical-theological study of the phrase "the LORD'S doing" and the biblical idea of what is "marvelous." The speaker develops the meaning of the word behind "marvelous" as something separated, distinguished, hidden, hard, surpassing human power, difficult to do, and difficult to understand. The central claim is that when Scripture calls something the Lord's doing, it means the matter belongs to God's sovereign action rather than human ability or wisdom. Because God is the one acting, the work may be difficult for humans to comprehend, yet it remains praiseworthy and wonderful in God's sight and, by grace, in the sight of his people. The teaching connects Isaiah 29:14 with the hiding of understanding from the wise and prudent, applying this to Christ's day and to the unbelief of many in Israel. Luke 19:41-42 and Acts 28:24 are used to show that some believed and others did not, and that the things belonging to peace were hidden from certain eyes. The speaker emphasizes that God himself hid these things and that this divine hiding is part of the marvelous work. Psalm 118 is treated as a major interpretive center. The rejected stone becoming the head of the corner is identified as the Lord's doing, and therefore as marvelous. The speaker stresses that human confidence is unreliable, that the Lord helps and saves, and that salvation is not of human contribution. This is then connected to Jesus' use of Psalm 118 in the parable of the wicked husbandmen in Matthew 21 and Mark 12. The rejection and killing of the Son are interpreted within God's sovereign purpose, and the kingdom being given to a fruit-bearing nation is identified as including the Gentiles. The teaching also explains why Jesus spoke in parables: the mysteries were hidden and only expounded to the disciples when they were alone. Finally, 1 Peter 4:12-19 is used to show that Christian suffering, fiery trial, reproach for Christ, and judgment beginning at the house of God are also within the will of God. The righteous being "scarcely" saved is interpreted as salvation occurring "with difficulty," not because God is weak, but because it is the Lord's difficult, sovereign, and marvelous work. Therefore believers who suffer according to God's will must entrust their souls to the faithful Creator.
