4 Major Prophets

4 Major #Prophets: ​#God Wants His People to Flourish!

4 Major Prophets:
​God Wants His People to Flourish

"You shall see, and your heart shall rejoice; your bones shall flourish like the grass;
and the hand of the Lord shall be known to His servants…” Isaiah 66:14
​God Wants His People to Flourish. We know that. The four major prophets of the Bible—Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Daniel—all had one thing in common. They were called by God to speak to His people about His desire for them to flourish.

Let's take a look at that today.
Bible Studies
Isaiah prophesied about the coming of the Messiah. This Messiah would bring salvation and restoration to Israel. This Messiah would make them flourish!

Jeremiah warned the people about disobedience. He also predicted the destruction of Jerusalem. At the same time though, he prophesied about the future restoration of the nation. 

Ezekiel prophesied the judgment of God on Israel and the surrounding nations. He also had visions of God's glory and power, which gave hope to God's people. 

Lamentations, also written by the Prophet Jeremiah, is a collection of poems. These writings express the grief and mourning of the Jews after the fall of Jerusalem. 

Daniel interpreted dreams and visions for the Babylonian King--Nebuchadnezzar. He also prophesied about the coming of the Messiah and the end times.

The major prophets' messages spoke of judgment, restoration, and hope. They are rooted in God's desire for His people to flourish. God wants His people to live in peace. He wants us to prosper and to be free from sin and its consequences. He also wants us to experience His love and forgiveness.
The major prophets' messages are still relevant today. We all need to hear the message of judgment so that we will repent of our sins and turn to God. We also need to hear the message of restoration, so that we will have hope for the future. And we need to hear the message of hope so that we will be encouraged to live for God and to make a difference in the world.

God wants His people to flourish. He has a plan for our lives, and He wants us to succeed. Let's take some time to meditate on the messages of the major prophets and let God's will be done in our lives.
Here are some specific ways that God wants His people to flourish:
  • Spiritually: He wants us to grow in our knowledge of Him and in our love for Him.
  • Relationally: He wants us to have strong relationships—with Him, family, and friends.
  • Emotionally: He wants us to experience peace, joy, and contentment.
  • Physically: He wants us to be healthy and strong.
  • Financially: He wants us to have enough to meet our needs and be able to help others.
God's desire for our flourishing is not just for our own benefit. He wants us to flourish so that we can be a blessing to others. When we are flourishing, we are more able to love, serve, and reach out to those around us.

​Let's commit ourselves to live in a way that pleases God and that brings Him glory. Let's allow Him to work in our lives and to bring about His purposes. Let's flourish for His name's sake and glory!
