Daily Bible Reading – June 2021, God’s Word of HopeExemplo
June 13
Introduction
Today’s passage is a prayer of thanks to God. It describes promises fulfilled, including the elimination of threats from enemies and shelter for those in need. It then offers a vision of God bringing new life as the Sovereign LORD destroys the power of death, and promises that the people will celebrate in the presence and protection of God.
Today’s Scripture Reading
Isaiah 25:1-9
Today’s Key Verse: Isaiah 25:9b
“He is the LORD! We have put our trust in him, and now we are happy and joyful because he has saved us.”
Reflect
Reread verses 7-8. The “cloud of sorrow” in verse 7 is understood in some other translations as “burial clothes.” If the people are experiencing sorrow or are in burial clothes, it is because Israel has been defeated by other nations. But verse 8 says that God will destroy death and end mourning. What images in this text are most powerful to you? Why?
Pray
Lord, you are my God. I will honor you and praise your name. You have done amazing things; you have faithfully carried out the plans you made long ago. Increase my trust in you, that I may more fully know and share your love. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Those who are grieving the death of a loved one
Tomorrow’s Reading
Isaiah 26:1-19: God will give his people victory.
