Come Follow Me OT Podcast 38, “A Marvelous Work and a Wonder,” -- Isaiah 13-14; 24-30; 35

September 12-18 I love that we get to study parts of Isaiah 29 this week where the Lord speaks with this language: "Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvelous work among this people, even a marvelous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid," (Isaiah 29:14). I am taken by the word marvelous. Elder LeGrand Richards published a book in 1950 that many of you have read called A Marvelous Work and a Wonder. This used to be standard reading material for full-time missionaries. That word marvelous is used in Section 4 of the Doctrine and Covenants, “Now behold, a marvelous work is about to come forth among the children of men,” (Doctrine and Covenants 4:1). But that same word is used in Section 6, Section 8, Section 11, Section 12, Section 14 and Section 18. I think the Lord means to astound us.
