Isaiah 45:15-17
Truly You are God, who hide Yourself, O God of Israel, the Savior! 16 They shall be ashamed And also disgraced, all of them; They shall go in confusion together, Who are makers of idols. 17 But Israel shall be saved by the Lord With an everlasting salvation; You shall not be ashamed or disgraced Forever and ever.
Truly You are God, who hide Yourself, O God of Israel, the Savior! 16 They shall be ashamed And also disgraced, all of them; They shall go in confusion together, Who are makers of idols. 17 But Israel shall be saved by the Lord With an everlasting salvation; You shall not be ashamed or disgraced Forever and ever.
As the end of the preceding verse says, "They will make supplication to you, saying, ‘ Surely God is in you, And there is no other; There is no other God. ’” When Jesus gives us new life, others can see Him, the one who "hides" Himself in us. People will serve idols of their own hands or imagination's work, but deliverance from our sin and its just punishment is only in God through Jesus. That is forever - from before time and past its ending. There is no shame or disgrace in our God. Ever.
