Isaiah 57:14
“He will say, “Build up, build up, prepare the way! Remove the stumbling-block out of the way of my people.””
What does Isaiah 57:14 mean?
God is calling His people to clear away the obstacles that keep others from finding Him. The "stumbling-blocks" aren't just physical barriers, but anything that makes the spiritual journey harder: broken relationships, false teachings, hypocrisy, or our own hardened hearts. When we remove these hindrances, we're preparing a straighter path for people to experience God's presence and healing. It's an invitation to active participation in God's work, not passive waiting, and it reminds us that small acts of clearing away what divides us can have profound effects on those around us.
