Isaiah 2:1-4
2:1 The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem.
It shall come to pass in the latter days
that the mountain of the house of the Lord
shall be established as the highest of the mountains,
and shall be lifted up above the hills;
and all the nations shall flow to it,
and many peoples shall come, and say:
“Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,
to the house of the God of Jacob,
that he may teach us his ways
and that we may walk in his paths.”
For out of Zion shall go the law,
and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
He shall judge between the nations,
and shall decide disputes for many peoples;
and they shall beat their swords into plowshares,
and their spears into pruning hooks;
nation shall not lift up sword against nation,
neither shall they learn war anymore. (ESV)

In the last days, people will be drawn to the truth of Christ Jesus and his message of hope, salvation, and abundant life (now and eternally). Many will seek the Lord and His goodness and righteousness. The world will be at peace under Jesus’ rule.
I believe Isaiah gave us a picture of what it is to be in God’s protection and blessing. If we are living in his blessing, we are protected from the evil chaos around us. I ask for my protection every day—do you?
