"The Intended Fruit of Israel's Tree" (Isaiah 45:20-25) - Daily Manna - 02/26/26

What if the gods we carry… are the very things exhausting us?

Isaiah 45 paints a stunning picture: fugitives from the nations running for safety—while still hauling wooden idols that cannot save. And yet Adonai does not respond with humiliation, but with an invitation:

“Turn to Me and be saved, all the ends of the earth.” (Isa. 45:22)

This teaching explores the intended fruit of Israel’s calling: to be witnesses of the One true God—El Tzaddiq u’Moshia, the righteous God and Savior. The Lord has not been hidden. His purposes have not changed. His Word has gone forth and will not return.

Every knee will bow… but the question is:

Will it be the bowing of a condemned rebel—or a pardoned worshiper?

This is a call to stop carrying what cannot rescue… and to turn our faces toward the only Deliverer.
