https://netbible.org/bible/Isaiah+58-62/
This is day 219 of our journey.
Isaiah continues to speak of the coming deliverance of the Lord. He reminds the people that God is just and mighty. God deserves to be praised whole-heartedly, without reservation and without holding back. Our praise must be genuine, or it is of no value. God doesn't simply look at our actions, he sees our true motivations and recognizes the deepest desires of our heart!
In the coming days, we won't get our light from the sun and moon, our light will be provided by God himself! He will bring prosperity and rejuvenation to his people, in his proper timing. In the meantime, we must keep vigilant, watch and pray.
Join me in Isaiah 58-62, look forward to his coming deliverance, do what he has called you to do!
