#215 Isaiah 43-45
from Devoted to Scripture Hosted by Devoted to Scripture
Day 215 of the podcast, reading Isaiah 43-45 NET, read along at: https://netbible.org/bible/Isaiah+43-45/ This is day 215 of our journey. In today's reading we become immersed in the greatness of God. He proclaims his power and his will to step in and rescue. He says, "Look, I am about to do something new." In chapter 44, he rants about the absurdity of worshiping idols. How could something formed by our own hands be worthy of praise? In chapter 45 we see a proclamation to King Cyrus of Assyria, long before King Cyrus lived, to allow Israel to return and rebuild their land and temple. According to the historian Josephus, this proclamation was later read by Cyrus, and being impressed that Israel's God knew him, he did exactly as the Scripture foretold! Join me in Isaiah 43-45 and worship the one true God! Key verses: Isaiah 43:1 Now, this is what the Lord says, the one who created you, O Jacob, and formed you, O Israel:“Don’t be afraid, for I will protect you. I call you by name, you are mine. Isaiah 44:20 He feeds on ashes; his deceived mind misleads him.He cannot rescue himself, nor does he say, ‘Is this not a false god I hold in my right hand?’ Isaiah 45:22 Turn to me so you can be delivered, all you who live in the earth’s remote regions! For I am God, and I have no peer. All Scriptures are from the NET.
