24.09.26 “God’s Parade” (Is. 52:7-12)

From the time we were children, most of us have loved parades, right? But as adults, we know parades, especially big ones, don’t just happen by accident. They are not spontaneous events. Parades with inflatable huge balloons and floats and marching bands and thousands of people require LOTS of planning and preparations.  While I’ve never been to the Rose Bowl Parade, I’ve heard that the design work for some of those magnificent floats begins years before and then flowers are ordered months before. Even the assembly of the floats requires hundreds of volunteers working several days till finally it’s sunrise in Pasadena, California on New Year’s Day, and the almost indescribably beautiful flower floats parade by for the world to watch in amazement!  Come with me, back in time to Jerusalem in the days of wicked king Manasseh when a courageous voice, the prophet Isaiah, was speaking God’s messages of hope.
