Scripture: Isaiah 2:1 (NIV): "This is what Isaiah son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem:"
Thought: To me, all that happened to Israel is a recorded warning for us all.
Question: Do I take God's Word to heart?
Isaiah could see and hear on a spiritual level because he loved God and longed to serve Him by listening to His voice and then recording those truths. He was open to receive the leadings of the Holy Spirit in all he wrote. He is credited as being the most beloved of the major prophets of Old Testament scripture.
His writing here is directed at "Judah and Jerusalem", God's chosen people, yet these words, in their depth and spiritual inspiration, have transcended that era and have become applicable to every age. To me, Isaiah's words are most appropriate for 21st century America. We would do well to read, listen, learn and obey what we uncover in this incomparable book!
Prayer: Father, thank You for inspiring Your scriptures through men like Isaiah. Thank You for Your Holy Spirit's work upon men like him and upon our listening hearts today. Help us to obey You! Amen.
