April 30, 2026, Isaiah 14:24-27

April 30, 2026, Isaiah 14:24-27 24  The  Lord  of hosts has sworn: “As I have planned,      so shall it be, and as I have purposed,      so shall it stand, 25  that I will break the Assyrian in my land,      and on my mountains trample him underfoot; and his yoke shall depart from them,      and his burden from their shoulder.” 26  This is the purpose that is purposed      concerning the whole earth, and this is the hand that is stretched out      over all the nations. 27  For the  Lord  of hosts has purposed,      and who will annul it? His hand is stretched out,      and who will turn it back? God is in control and woe to those who choose not to obey God. Prayer changes things so remember to pray for the lost souls in our world today. God answers p...

April 29, 2026, Isaiah 14:3-23

April 29, 2026, Isaiah 14:3-23 3  When the  Lord  has given you rest from your pain and turmoil and the hard service with which you were made to serve,  4  you will take up this taunt against the king of Babylon: “How the oppressor has ceased,      the insolent fury ceased! 5  The  Lord  has broken the staff of the wicked,      the scepter of rulers, 6  that struck the peoples in wrath      with unceasing blows, that ruled the nations in anger      with unrelenting persecution. 7  The whole earth is at rest and quiet;      they break forth into singing. 8  The cypresses rejoice at you,      the cedars of Lebanon, saying, ‘Since you were laid low,      no woodcutter comes up against us.’ 9  Sheol beneath is stirred up      to meet yo...

April 28, 2026, Isaiah 14:1-2

April 28, 2026, Isaiah 14:1-2 14  For the  Lord  will have compassion on Jacob and will again choose Israel, and will set them in their own land, and sojourners will join them and will attach themselves to the house of Jacob.  2  And the peoples will take them and bring them to their place, and the house of Israel will possess them in the  Lord 's land as male and female slaves. They will take captive those who were their captors, and rule over those who oppressed them. What is God’s ultimate purpose for discipling His people? Debbie Walker

April 27, 2026, Isaiah 13:1-22

April 27, 2026, Isaiah 13:1-22 13  The oracle concerning Babylon which Isaiah the son of Amoz saw. 2  On a bare hill raise a signal;      cry aloud to them; wave the hand for them to enter      the gates of the nobles. 3  I myself have commanded my consecrated ones,      and have summoned my mighty men to execute my anger,      my proudly exulting ones. 4  The sound of a tumult is on the mountains      as of a great multitude! The sound of an uproar of kingdoms,      of nations gathering together! The  Lord  of hosts is mustering      a host for battle. 5  They come from a distant land,      from the end of the heavens, the  Lord  and the weapons of his indignation,      to destroy the whole land. 6  Wail, for...

April 26, 2026, Isaiah 12:1-6

April 26, 2026, Isaiah 12:1-6 12  You will say in that day: “I will give thanks to you, O  Lord ,      for though you were angry with me, your anger turned away,      that you might comfort me. 2  “Behold, God is my salvation;      I will trust, and will not be afraid; for the  Lord   God  is my strength and my song,      and he has become my salvation.” 3  With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation.  4  And you will say in that day: “Give thanks to the  Lord ,      call upon his name, make known his deeds among the peoples,      proclaim that his name is exalted. 5  “Sing praises to the  Lord , for he has done gloriously;      let this be made known in all the earth. 6  Shout, and sing for joy, O inhabitant of Zion, ...

April 25, 2026, Isaiah 11:1-16

April 25, 2026, Isaiah 11:1-16 11  There shall come forth a shoot from the stump of Jesse,      and a branch from his roots shall bear fruit. 2  And the Spirit of the  Lord  shall rest upon him,      the Spirit of wisdom and understanding,      the Spirit of counsel and might,      the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the  Lord . 3  And his delight shall be in the fear of the  Lord . He shall not judge by what his eyes see,      or decide disputes by what his ears hear, 4  but with righteousness he shall judge the poor,      and decide with equity for the meek of the earth; and he shall strike the earth with the rod of his mouth,      and with the breath of his lips he shall kill the wicked. 5  Righteousness shall be the belt of his waist,  ...

April 24, 2026, Isaiah 10:20-34

April 24, 2026, Isaiah 10:20-34 20  In that day the remnant of Israel and the survivors of the house of Jacob will no more lean on him who struck them, but will lean on the  Lord , the Holy One of Israel, in truth.  21  A remnant will return, the remnant of Jacob, to the mighty God.  22  For though your people Israel be as the sand of the sea, only a remnant of them will return. Destruction is decreed, overflowing with righteousness.  23  For the Lord  God  of hosts will make a full end, as decreed, in the midst of all the earth. 24  Therefore thus says the Lord  God  of hosts: “O my people, who dwell in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrians when they strike with the rod and lift up their staff against you as the Egyptians did.  25  For in a very little while my fury will come to an end, and my anger will be directed to their destruction.  26  And...

April 23, 2026, Isaiah 10:5-19

April 23, 2026, Isaiah 10:5-19 5  Woe to Assyria, the rod of my anger;      the staff in their hands is my fury! 6  Against a godless nation I send him,      and against the people of my wrath I command him, to take spoil and seize plunder,      and to tread them down like the mire of the streets. 7  But he does not so intend,      and his heart does not so think; but it is in his heart to destroy,      and to cut off nations not a few; 8  for he says: “Are not my commanders all kings? 9  Is not Calno like Carchemish?      Is not Hamath like Arpad?      Is not Samaria like Damascus? 10  As my hand has reached to the kingdoms of the idols,      whose carved images were greater than those of Jerusalem and Samaria, 11  shall ...

April 22, 2026, Isaiah 10:1-4

April 22, 2026, Isaiah 10:1-4 10 Woe to those who decree iniquitous decrees,      and the writers who keep writing oppression, 2  to turn aside the needy from justice      and to rob the poor of my people of their right, that widows may be their spoil,      and that they may make the fatherless their prey! 3  What will you do on the day of punishment,      in the ruin that will come from afar? To whom will you flee for help,      and where will you leave your wealth? 4  Nothing remains but to crouch among the prisoners      or fall among the slain. For all this his anger has not turned away,      and his hand is stretched out still. How important does God view justice for the poor and the oppressed in society? Debbie Walker
