August 6, Reading 2 – Isaiah 52:1-12

What marvellous verses. Verses 7-10 recall us to a new insight as to how we regard our parents, ministers, leaders, and teachers.

* Righteous God, please teach us from Your word today, so that we might know how to please You.

“How beautiful upon the mountains are the feat of him who brings good news,”

Here is a wonderful poetic vision of what it means to tell people about Jesus!

What is the good news that we might bring to those around us?

JESUS: King and Saviour, Rescuer and Redeemer.

God does not act in secret, our faith is not without evidence.

“The LORD has bared his holy arm before the eyes of all the nations, and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God.”

In Jesus we see God at work in all His wisdom and power.

And in Jesus we see the salvation of our God, our forever King!

We do not follow dead wood, rotten matter.

No. We follow the living and true God. The Holy One of Israel.

Hallelujah, what a Saviour!

* Dear Father God,

Thank You for the wonderful news we can bring. May our feet be ready, shod with the readiness to spread this good news to the world around.

Thank You for Jesus.

We pray in His Name,

Amen.
