Isaiah 27

Deliverance of Israel

the Lord will punish with his sword--his fierce, great and powerful sword--Leviathan the gliding serpent, Leviathan the coiling serpent; he will slay the monster of the sea. 

In that day---

Sing about a fruitful vineyard: I, the Lord, watch over it; I water it continually I guard it day and night so that no one may harm it etc.... 

Isaiah 28

Woe to the Leaders of Ephraim and Judah

Isaiah 29

Woe to David's City

Isaiah 30

Woe to the Obstinate Nation

Isaiah 31

Woe to those that rely on Egypt

The issues:

1. Looking to a person to save or deliver you. (Only God can grant true freedom and true deliverance). 
2. Expecting to find peace outside of God. It is hard to see but what is peace without God. 
3. Multiple Nations/countries were in trouble because they left God. They neglected and mistreated the poor.
4.  Some begin to look to Egypt for help but Egypt had more issues than them. The survivors will be those who look to God. 

The Expectation

1. Things cannot get better without God.
2. His people will turn to him and trust him
3. He desires justice and he hate crime.

He Knows

1. He knows about the wicked and their plots and crimes, justice prevails when we allow God to help us.

Proverbs 

Saying of the wise

Saying 20

Do not envy the wicked, do not despise their company; for their hearts plot violence, and their lips talk about making trouble.
