Daily Bible Reading – June 2021, God’s Word of Hope

DAY 16 OF 30

June 16

Introduction

In 587 B.C., the Babylonian army completed the destruction of Jerusalem, and many of the people were forced to leave Judah and live in exile in Babylonia. The exile was seen as Judah’s punishment for not remaining faithful to God. The people were crushed and without hope. Chapter 40 introduces a section in the book of Isaiah that contains a message of hope and comfort to God’s people who were living in exile. God is lauded as the greatest power in the universe.

Today’s Scripture Reading 

Isaiah 40:1-31

Today’s Key verse:  Isaiah 40:31a

Those who trust in the LORD for help will find their strength renewed.

Reflect

What words of hope and encouragement does Isaiah proclaim? Today’s reading is filled with images from the natural world that describe the nature of God and the nature of people. What are some of the images used to describe God? What are some of the images used to describe people? Which images are most striking to you?

Pray

Lord, you give strength to the weary. As I trust in you, may I find new strength and become strong like a soaring eagle, walking and running without getting tired. Thank you for your eternal love and care. Amen.

Prayer Concern

Those who are tired and weary and in need of renewed strength

Tomorrow’s Reading

Isaiah 42:1-25: The LORD’s servant will bring justice to every nation.
