Charles Spurgeon Commentary Isaiah 51:9

"Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of Jehovah; awake, as in the days of old, the generations of ancient times. Is it not thou that didst cut Rahab in pieces, that didst pierce the monster?" — Isaiah 51:9 (ASV)

Awake, awake, put on strength, O arm of the Lord; awake, as in the ancient days, in the generations of old.

We long for God to come again upon the stage of action, to interpose in the world's affairs, and to let people see what He can do.

There was a time when He was to be found by the burning bush, or on the mountain's brow, or in the cave, or by the well, and earth seemed then like the vestibule of heaven. Come again, O Jehovah, great Lord and King, let Your goings be seen once more in the sanctuary.
