'Emmanuel... God is with us'

Join me each weekday for a short thought from the Bible to help us listen to what God is saying right now.These are today’s verses:“The Lord spoke to me again:‘Because this people has rejected the gently flowing waters of Shiloahand rejoices over Rezin and the son of Remaliah,therefore the Lord is about to bring against them the mighty floodwaters of the Euphrates – the king of Assyria with all his pomp.It will overflow all its channels, run over all its banksand sweep on into Judah, swirling over it, passing through it and reaching up to the neck.Its outspread wings will cover the breadth of your land, Immanuel!’Raise the war cry, you nations, and be shattered! Listen, all you distant lands.Prepare for battle, and be shattered! Prepare for battle, and be shattered!Devise your strategy, but it will be thwarted; propose your plan, but it will not stand, for God is with us.”Isaiah 8:5-10The Bible Uncancelled is a reader-supported publication.
