We have a song in our songbook titled, “Where Could I Go?” The first verse talks about the difficulty of facing temptations. So then the question is asked, “Where could I go but to the Lord?” The second verse speaks about having good neighbors. But when my soul needs manna from above, where could I go but to the Lord? The third verse talks about having good friends and receiving comfort from God’s word. But when I face death, where could I go but to the Lord? …In Isaiah 40:27 the people are questioning God. They are saying that God does not see what they are experiencing and that God does not care. Isaiah has given two pictures about God through verse 17. God is pictured as a saving shepherd, gathering his sheep into his arms. God is also pictured as being so great in power and majesty that nothing is too hard or too big for him to handle. The third picture of God that we are going to see begins in Isaiah 40:18. The key question to this picture is asked twice. With whom will you compare God? (Isaiah 40:18,25). What Isaiah is going to tell us about God is so that we will draw the same conclusion as the song, “Where could I go but to the Lord?”
