What is the glory of God—and why is it so often misunderstood?

Isaiah 40:3–8 confronts our instinct to trust what looks strong, stable, and unstoppable. Nations rise and fall. Systems fade. Human reliability withers like grass. But in the middle of exile, discipline, and disappointment, God speaks a surprising word: Comfort.

This teaching explores:

- What it really means to “prepare the way of the Lord”

- Why God’s glory is revealed not just in power, but in His character

- The contrast between what fades and what truly lasts

- Why the Word of God is the only foundation that stands forever

If you’ve been tempted to build your hope on what you can see, this passage re-centers your heart on what cannot be shaken.
