Isa 40:30
- “Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:”
- Youth is characterized by strength (Pro 20:29).
- Children have nearly limitless energy, but even they eventually run out of steam.
- Young men can outwork old men, but they too, in due time, will faint.
- Youth is also characterized by confidence that will eventually be broken (Ecc 11:9-10).
- Youths, in their foolish pride, rage and are confident (Pro 14:16).
- This confident pride leads to their fall (Pro 16:18; Pro 18:12; Pro 29:23).
- For this reason young men need to be exhorted to be sober minded (Tit 2:6 c/w Rom 12:3).
- To prevent falling into sin and destruction, young men should seek their Creator in the days of their youth (Ecc 12:1).
- It is good that a man bear God’s yoke in his youth (Lam 3:26-27).
- If young men have the word of God abiding in them, they are truly strong and will not fall into temptation (1Jo 2:14 c/w Psa 119:9).
- Though even the young shall faint and be weary, it will not be so for those who wait on the Lord (Isa 40:31).
