  1. Lesson 103A – Isaiah 55–66 Strengthen Thy Stakes

  2. Boy Scouts: Let’s build a tent • How could you make the tent larger? • Why is it important for the stakes/cords to be strong? What about when the tent gets bigger? • What does a bigger tent allow for?

  3. Isaiah 54:2-3 • What are the symbols here? • Tent • Stakes/Cords • Coverings • What happens to the tent in the last day? • It gets larger, needs more support from the “stakes”

  4. Perspective in the Gathering • Isaiah 54:7-8 • Isaiah prophesied of the scattering of Israel, now what is He saying? • Don’t worry; it is only a small moment. I will gather you back. • v9-10 • What is “as the waters of Noah”? • Genesis 9:9-11 • The Lord keeps His promise, because it is part of the plan • The Lord will gather His people again.

  5. What are we to do in the meantime? • Isaiah 55:1-2 • How can you buy bread and milk without money? • Who is the bread of life? Marion G Romney “I conceive the blessings of the gospel to be of such inestimable worth that the price for them must be very exacting, and if I correctly understand what the Lord has said on the subject, it is. The price, however, is within the reach of us all, because it is not to be paid in money nor in any of this world’s goods but in righteous living. What is required is wholehearted devotion to the gospel and unreserved allegiance to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints”

  6. Isaiah 55:6-9 • Why do we do these things? Why do we “seek.. the Lord while he may be found”? • Because our thoughts are not His. We don’t understand the whole picture and don’t have the whole perspective Marion G Romney (the same quote) “When earth life is over and things appear in their true perspective, we shall more clearly see and realize what the Lord and his prophets have repeatedly told us, that the fruits of the gospel are the only objectives worthy of life’s full efforts. Their possessor obtains true wealth—wealth in the Lord’s view of values. . . .” “Through self-discipline and devotion we must demonstrate to the Lord that we are willing to serve him under all circumstances. When we have done this, we shall receive an assurance that we shall have eternal life in the world to come. Then we shall have peace in this world.”

  7. Let’s compare Man and God’s Thoughts and Ways • Pick a topic: • Happiness • Success • Family • Worship Thoughts Ways

  8. “As the rain cometh down” • The Blindfold game • What does the person with the blindfold know? • What about the person giving directions? • What if that person was also blindfolded? • Luke 6:39-40 • Isaiah 55:10-11 • Let us use the Lord’s word to guide us, because He has the eternal perspective, and it will help us grow to become like Him

  9. Notebook Ideas • What are the best ways to learn about the Lord’s thoughts and ways in your own life? • What can you do as a member of the church to strengthen the stakes of Zion?
