October 4
Introduction
Today we begin reading excerpts from the book of the prophet Isaiah. The book is named for a great prophet who lived in Jerusalem in the latter half of the eighth century B.C. The prophet called the people and their leaders to a life of righteousness and justice, and he warned that failure to listen to God would bring doom and destruction. Today’s reading begins with an oracle of judgment against Jerusalem and Judah, and concludes with the way in which the LORD will judge the people.
Today’s Scripture Reading
Isaiah 3:1-15
Today’s Key Verse: Isaiah 3:10
The righteous will be happy, and things will go well for them. They will get to enjoy what they have worked for.
Reflect
How will the LORD deal with the people’s disobedience? Why are they doomed (verses 1-9)?
What are your thoughts about these punishments? Reread verses 13-15. What accusations are brought against the nation’s leaders? What does today’s reading teach you about God’s justice?
Pray
Almighty God, You are righteous in all Your judgments. Teach me to obey Your laws so that I may serve You in ways that reflect Your love and glorify You. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
