The Perverseness of Rejecting God
1 Samuel 12:20-25Samuel aber sprach zum Volk: Fürchtet euch nicht! Ihr habt zwar das Übel alles getan; doch weicht nicht hinter dem HERRN ab, sondern dient dem HERRN von ganzem Herzenund folgt nicht dem Eitlen nach; denn es nützt nicht und kann nicht erretten, weil es ein eitel Ding ist.Aber der HERR verläßt sein Volk nicht um seines großen Namens willen; denn es hat dem HERRN gefallen, euch ihm selbst zum Volk zu machen.Es sei aber auch ferne von mir, mich also an dem HERRN zu versündigen, daß ich sollte ablassen für euch zu beten und euch zu lehren den guten und richtigen Weg.Fürchtet nur den HERRN und dient ihm treulich von ganzem Herzen; denn ihr habt gesehen wie große Dinge er an euch tut.Werdet ihr aber übel handeln, so werdet ihr und euer König verloren sein.

The Son who was a Sign
Isaiah 8:1-4Moreover the LORD said unto me, Take thee a great roll, and write in it with a man's pen concerning Mahershalalhashbaz.And I took unto me faithful witnesses to record, Uriah the priest, and Zechariah the son of Jeberechiah.And I went unto the prophetess; and she conceived, and bare a son. Then said the LORD to me, Call his name Mahershalalhashbaz.For before the child shall have knowledge to cry, My father, and my mother, the riches of Damascus and the spoil of Samaria shall be taken away before the king of Assyria.

Wrestling in Prayer
Genesis 32:24-26And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day.And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him.And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.

The Catastrophic Consequences of Sin
Isaiah 7:17-25The LORD shall bring upon thee, and upon thy people, and upon thy father's house, days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim departed from Judah; even the king of Assyria.And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall hiss for the fly that is in the uttermost part of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria.And they shall come, and shall rest all of them in the desolate valleys, and in the holes of the rocks, and upon all thorns, and upon all bushes.In the same day shall the Lord shave with a razor that is hired, namely, by them beyond the river, by the king of Assyria, the head, and the hair of the feet: and it shall also consume the beard.And it shall come to pass in that day, that a man shall nourish a young cow, and two sheep;And it shall come to pass, for the abundance of milk that they shall give he shall eat butter: for butter and honey shall every one eat that is left in the land.And it shall come to pass in that day, that every place shall be, where there were a thousand vines at a thousand silverlings, it shall even be for briers and thorns.With arrows and with bows shall men come thither; because all the land shall become briers and thorns.And on all hills that shall be digged with the mattock, there shall not come thither the fear of briers and thorns: but it shall be for the sending forth of oxen, and for the treading of lesser cattle.

Refusing Encouragement
Isaiah 7:10-16Moreover the LORD spake again unto Ahaz, saying,Ask thee a sign of the LORD thy God; ask it either in the depth, or in the height above.But Ahaz said, I will not ask, neither will I tempt the LORD.And he said, Hear ye now, O house of David; Is it a small thing for you to weary men, but will ye weary my God also?Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.Butter and honey shall he eat, that he may know to refuse the evil, and choose the good.For before the child shall know to refuse the evil, and choose the good, the land that thou abhorrest shall be forsaken of both her kings.
