Isaiah 65:16-17 so that he who blesses himself in the land shall bless himself by the God of truth, and he who takes an oath in the land shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten and are hidden from my eyes. For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth, and the former things shall not be remembered or come into mind.
In connection with the Hebrew Word “Amen”, meaning “faith”, “truth”, “belief”, and “trust”, consider this revealing passage in Isaiah which further amplifies the dimensions of the word in the most wonderful and comforting promise:
“He who blesses himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth [“Amen” in Hebrew]. And he who swears in the earth will swear by the God of truth [“Amen” in Hebrew]; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hidden from My eyes. For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth. And the things before will not be remembered, nor come to mind.”[Isa. 65:16-17]
This use of “amen” in Isaiah affirms the Divine consummation of all things. As we proceed through the painful birth pangs of this age leading to the glorious appearing of Messiah Yeshua, we can reflect upon the miraculous promise that none of it will even be remembered!!! A new and perfect world awaits us; the God of AMEN declares it. Can you confidently say “AMEN! to that?
