Daily Bible Reading — December 2023, God’s Saving Word: Joy

DAY 16 OF 31

December 16

Introduction

Isaiah 61:1–11: Today’s reading is the second in a series of three prophecies. It begins with a call to preach the good news, and the message includes words of comfort and consolation. A time of prosperity and everlasting joy is promised.

Today’s Key Verse: Isaiah 61:11

As surely as seeds sprout and grow,
The Sovereign LORD will save his people;
And all the nations will praise him.

Reflect

Reread verses 1 and 2. Verse 1 describes the prophet as one who has been chosen and sent. Another word for “chosen” used in other translations is “anointed.” The prophet has been given a divine commission. What is the mission? What is the good news? Jesus quotes these verses in his inaugural sermon at the beginning of his public ministry (Luke 4:18–19). What good news can you proclaim today?

Pray

Sovereign Lord, fill me with your Spirit and empower me to proclaim the good news of your love and salvation. Fill my heart with the joy and gladness that comes from you. Amen.

Tomorrow’s Reading

Isaiah 62:1–12: The prophet speaks words of encouragement.
