“Bel boweth down, Nebo stoopeth, their idols were upon the beasts, and upon the cattle: your carriages were heavy loaden; they are a burden … Hearken unto me … even to your old age I am he … I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you. — Isaiah 46:1-4
“Bel” and “Nebo” were names of ancient deities. God, through the prophet Isaiah, tells his people an important difference between himself and the others — the maker carries what is made.
It’s a good test for authenticity. Are you carrying your “faith” through life, trying to keep it from harm, or is your “faith” carrying you?
