The sun shall be no more your light by day, nor for brightness shall the moon give you light; but the Lord will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your glory. Isaiah 60:19
I continue my deep dive of Isaiah, based on the Precept Upon Precept study series. My study of Isaiah moves on to day 4 (of 5) of week 21, which looks at Isaiah 58-60. Day 4 focuses on Isaiah 60, which describes a vision of future glory for Israel. This glory rests on not just freedom from captivity from Assyria and Babylon but also on a coming Messiah Jesus Christ. Isaiah's vision also includes a view of end times where in Revelation it says in chapter 21: "the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and its lamp is the Lamb (Revelation 21:23)." For today, in the present age, we have hope in the light that Jesus provides to battle darkness and sin. One day, when the sun and moon no longer shine, Jesus' light will continue to shine...forevermore. Be encouraged in the light Jesus provides!

My Prayer: Lord Jesus, Your Word is a lamp to my feet and light to my path - You guide me and sustain me on a narrow path. Thank You Jesus! I am not deserving of such guidance and light. My sin is great and it continues...daily. Please forgive me Jesus and help me overcome and turn from my sin towards You. Help me love You with all of my heart, soul, and mind and love others as You love me. Help me grow in my faith. Give Lisa and myself wisdom and strength. Please heal Lisa of her cancer and from the side effects of chemo. Help us lead Zach and Dustin to You Jesus and for them to choose You as their Lord and Savior. Please provide Godly friends and spouses to Zach and Dustin. Help me serve You, my family, my church, and others. Help me understand, be obedient to, and apply Your message for me today and every day.
