“I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up; and the train of His robe filled the temple. Above Him stood the seraphim. Each had six wings: with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. And one called to another and

“The LORD goes out like a mighty man, like a man of war he stirs up his zeal; he cries out, he shouts aloud, he shows himself mighty against his foes.” – Isaiah 42:13 In this passage, the YHWH is talking about His zeal-fueled, end-time action against the enemies of His people and that will
” fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” – Isaiah 41:10
Isaiah 53:4, “Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows.” Jesus truly bore the griefs and the sorrows of His people’s “Today,” 2,000 years ago on Calvary. It was an actual, historic event….the griefs of all my life—and all yours if you are trusting in Him—were laid on, known by, and
Isaiah 43:1-3, “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume
Isaiah 11:6,9, “The wolf shall lie down with the lamb….They shall not hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain; for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of YHWH as the waters cover the sea.” A few thoughts…. First, the Branch is, of course, Jesus Christ (Rev.5:5). He is the Shoot
Isaiah 63:9, “In all their affliction, He was afflicted…” Two things to notice in this picture: First, the same nail is piercing both the hand of the believer and of Christ. In a mysterious sense which I am still—and will likely ever be—trying to wrap my mind around, Christ bore our sufferings on the
Isaiah 28:12, “This is rest; give rest to the weary; and this is repose.” If we long to enter more fully into the rest that Christ gives, let us follow Him in pouring ourselves out to give rest to a sin-weary world — as He has given to us.
Isaiah 46:4, “…I will carry you. I have made, and I will bear; I will carry and will save.” Isaiah 53:4, “Surely, He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows…” A song for today’s picture: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c26hIle6lKY I’m currently working on a script for a new animation that I plan to make the first or
Isaiah 53:4, “Surely, He has borne our griefs…” As I type it is 6pm on Sunday evening and news about the Sutherland Springs church shooting is flowing in via internet media outlets…. When we heard, Courtney and I prayed together…its hard to find words…Its hard to know how to respond with such an overload
Isaiah 52:15, “…he will sprinkle many nations, and kings will shut their mouths because of him. For what they were not told, they will see, and what they have not heard, they will understand.” May it be so….. Below you can read the string of thoughts from my journal that led me to this
Psalm 60:4-5, “You have set up a banner for those who fear you, that they may flee to it from the bow. That your beloved ones may be delivered, give salvation by your right hand and answer us!” I read these verses again today and was reminded of a journal entry from back in
Isaiah 57:15 “I dwell in the high and holy place, and also with him who is of a contrite and lowly spirit”
Isaiah 66:2, “But this is the one to whom I will look; he who is humble and contrite in spirit and trembles at my word.” What a simple and crucial reminder of the posture we are to take before the LORD our God. HIS word, HIS revelation–which for us means–HIS inspired scripture is to rest
Isaiah 38:17, “Behold, it was for my welfare that I had great bitterness; [and] in love you have delivered my life from the pit of destruction, for you have cast all my sins behind your back.” This passage was not from my reading this morning so I don’t have a journal entry to share
Psalm 6:7, “My eye wastes away because of grief…” Isaiah 43:2, “when you pass through the waters, I will be with you…” A few things to notice in these two passages. First, in Psalm 6, see that the Lord’s provision for David has not kept this “man after God’s own heart” from sleepless, grief-filled
