    Ezekiel 6–13 | A New Heart and a New Spirit

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we continue through the book of Ezekiel with chapters 6 through 13 from the King James Version.Ezekiel’s visions reveal the depth of Judah’s idolatry and the judgment approaching Jerusalem. The prophet is shown hidden abominations within the temple, the marking of those who grieve over the city’s sins, and the solemn departure of the glory of the Lord from Jerusalem.Yet even within these difficult chapters, God speaks words of hope to His scattered people. Though they have been driven into distant lands, He promises to be “as a little sanctuary” to them. He also looks ahead to restoration, declaring that He will give His people one heart and put a new spirit within them.Ezekiel is also called to act out the coming exile and to confront prophets who offer false assurances of peace. Settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as Ezekiel chapters 6 to 13 remind us of the holiness of God, the seriousness of His word, and His presence with His people even far from home.Highlighted VersesEzekiel 6:9“And they that escape of you shall remember me among the nations whither they shall be carried captives.”Ezekiel 8:12“Then said he unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen what the ancients of the house of Israel do in the dark?”Ezekiel 9:4“Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof.”Ezekiel 10:18“Then the glory of the LORD departed from off the threshold of the house.”Ezekiel 11:16“Although I have cast them far off among the heathen, and although I have scattered them among the countries, yet will I be to them as a little sanctuary in the countries where they shall come.”Ezekiel 11:19“And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you.”Ezekiel 11:20“That they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.”Ezekiel 12:28“There shall none of my words be prolonged any more, but the word which I have spoken shall be done, saith the Lord GOD.”Ezekiel 13:10“Because, even because they have seduced my people, saying, Peace; and there was no peace.”

    Lamentations 3–5 & Ezekiel 1–5 | Great Is Thy Faithfulness

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we conclude the book of Lamentations with chapters 3 through 5 and begin the book of Ezekiel with chapters 1 through 5, read from the King James Version.From the depths of Jerusalem’s sorrow comes one of Scripture’s most beloved declarations of hope: “It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed… they are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.” Lamentations closes with prayer, remembrance, and a longing for the Lord to restore His people.Then, beside the river Chebar in Babylon, the heavens open before the prophet Ezekiel. He beholds an extraordinary vision of living creatures, wheels, fire, and the likeness of the glory of the Lord. Ezekiel is called to speak God’s word to a rebellious people, whether they listen or refuse.Settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as we journey from lament and enduring hope into Ezekiel’s remarkable vision and prophetic calling—a reminder that even in exile, the glory and presence of God are not confined to Jerusalem.Highlighted VersesLamentations 3:22–23“It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.”Lamentations 3:24“The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.”Lamentations 3:25–26“The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the LORD.”Lamentations 3:40“Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the LORD.”Lamentations 3:57“Thou drewest near in the day that I called upon thee: thou saidst, Fear not.”Lamentations 5:21“Turn thou us unto thee, O LORD, and we shall be turned; renew our days as of old.”Ezekiel 1:28“This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face.”Ezekiel 2:2“And the spirit entered into me when he spake unto me, and set me upon my feet.”Ezekiel 2:7“And thou shalt speak my words unto them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.”Ezekiel 3:10“Son of man, all my words that I shall speak unto thee receive in thine heart, and hear with thine ears.”Ezekiel 3:17“Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel.”

    Jeremiah 51–52 & Lamentations 1–2 | Tears over Jerusalem

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we conclude the book of Jeremiah with chapters 51 and 52 and begin Lamentations with chapters 1 and 2, read from the King James Version.Jeremiah’s final prophecy declares the coming judgment of Babylon, the empire that conquered Judah and destroyed Jerusalem. Then chapter 52 looks back upon Jerusalem’s fall: the city is besieged, the temple is burned, its treasures are carried away, and many of its people are taken into captivity.From this devastation we enter the book of Lamentations, where grief is given a voice. Jerusalem is pictured as a lonely city mourning what has been lost. These opening chapters do not hurry past sorrow or offer easy explanations; instead, they bring suffering honestly before the Lord.Yet even in these solemn passages, prayer remains possible. “Pour out thine heart like water before the face of the Lord.” Settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as we move from Jeremiah’s closing prophecy into the heartfelt lament of a broken city seeking God amid the ruins.Highlighted VersesJeremiah 51:15“He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heaven by his understanding.”Jeremiah 51:46“And lest your heart faint, and ye fear for the rumour that shall be heard in the land.”Jeremiah 51:50“Ye that have escaped the sword, go away, stand not still: remember the LORD afar off, and let Jerusalem come into your mind.”Jeremiah 52:31“And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah… that Evilmerodach king of Babylon… lifted up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah.”Lamentations 1:12“Is it nothing to you, all ye that pass by? behold, and see if there be any sorrow like unto my sorrow.”Lamentations 1:18“The LORD is righteous; for I have rebelled against his commandment.”Lamentations 2:17“The LORD hath done that which he had devised; he hath fulfilled his word that he had commanded in the days of old.”Lamentations 2:19“Arise, cry out in the night: in the beginning of the watches pour out thine heart like water before the face of the Lord.”

    Jeremiah 45–50 | Be Not Afraid, O Jacob My Servant

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we continue through the book of Jeremiah with chapters 45 through 50 from the King James Version.Jeremiah first brings a personal word from the Lord to Baruch, his faithful scribe, before the prophecy turns outward toward the surrounding nations. Egypt, the Philistines, Moab, Ammon, Edom, Damascus, Kedar, Elam, and finally Babylon all come beneath the searching word of God.These chapters remind us that no kingdom is beyond the Lord’s authority. Nations may rise in strength and pride, but their power is temporary before the God who governs history. Yet amid these solemn judgments, Jeremiah also speaks words of comfort and restoration to Israel and Judah.The Lord promises that His scattered people will seek Him again, asking the way to Zion, and He assures them that their Redeemer is strong. Settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as Jeremiah chapters 45 to 50 lead us through judgment, justice, remembrance, and the promise of return.Highlighted VersesJeremiah 45:5“And seekest thou great things for thyself? seek them not.”Jeremiah 46:27“But fear not thou, O my servant Jacob, and be not dismayed, O Israel.”Jeremiah 48:10“Cursed be he that doeth the work of the LORD deceitfully.”Jeremiah 49:11“Leave thy fatherless children, I will preserve them alive; and let thy widows trust in me.”Jeremiah 49:16“Thy terribleness hath deceived thee, and the pride of thine heart.”Jeremiah 50:4“In those days, and in that time, saith the LORD, the children of Israel shall come, they and the children of Judah together, going and weeping: they shall go, and seek the LORD their God.”Jeremiah 50:5“They shall ask the way to Zion with their faces thitherward.”Jeremiah 50:20“In those days, and in that time, saith the LORD, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none.”Jeremiah 50:34“Their Redeemer is strong; the LORD of hosts is his name: he shall throughly plead their cause.”

    Jeremiah 38–44 | The Fall of Jerusalem and a Prophet’s Faithfulness

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we continue through the book of Jeremiah with chapters 38 through 44 from the King James Version.Jeremiah’s warnings bring him into greater danger. He is lowered into a muddy dungeon and left to die, until Ebed-melech courageously appeals for his rescue. King Zedekiah secretly seeks Jeremiah’s counsel, but fear keeps him from acting upon the prophet’s words. Soon Jerusalem falls to Babylon, bringing Jeremiah’s long warnings to fulfillment.In the aftermath, a small remnant remains in Judah under Gedaliah. After violence and upheaval threaten their future, the people ask Jeremiah to seek the Lord’s direction and promise to obey whatever God says. The answer is clear: remain in the land and do not fear. Yet fear prevails, and the people flee to Egypt, taking Jeremiah with them.Settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as Jeremiah chapters 38 to 44 remind us of the courage to speak truth, the cost of disregarding God’s counsel, and the faithfulness of the Lord even amid upheaval and loss.Highlighted VersesJeremiah 38:20“Obey, I beseech thee, the voice of the LORD, which I speak unto thee: so it shall be well unto thee, and thy soul shall live.”Jeremiah 39:18“For I will surely deliver thee, and thou shalt not fall by the sword, but thy life shall be for a prey unto thee: because thou hast put thy trust in me, saith the LORD.”Jeremiah 40:4“And now, behold, I loose thee this day from the chains which were upon thine hand.”Jeremiah 42:3“That the LORD thy God may shew us the way wherein we may walk, and the thing that we may do.”Jeremiah 42:6“Whether it be good, or whether it be evil, we will obey the voice of the LORD our God.”Jeremiah 42:11“Be not afraid of the king of Babylon, of whom ye are afraid; be not afraid of him, saith the LORD: for I am with you to save you, and to deliver you from his hand.”Jeremiah 43:2“Thou speakest falsely: the LORD our God hath not sent thee to say, Go not into Egypt to sojourn there.”Jeremiah 44:4“Howbeit I sent unto you all my servants the prophets, rising early and sending them, saying, Oh, do not this abominable thing that I hate.”

    Jeremiah 32–37 | Call Unto Me, and I Will Answer Thee

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we continue through the book of Jeremiah with chapters 32 through 37 from the King James Version.Jerusalem is under siege, Jeremiah is confined, and the fall of Judah seems unavoidable. Yet in the midst of these dark circumstances, God tells Jeremiah to purchase a field—a remarkable act of faith pointing toward a future when homes, fields, and vineyards will once again be possessed in the land.These chapters contain some of Jeremiah’s most reassuring promises. “Call unto me, and I will answer thee,” says the Lord. He promises healing, forgiveness, restoration, an everlasting covenant, and the coming of a righteous Branch from the line of David.We also meet the faithful Rechabites, witness King Jehoiakim’s attempt to destroy Jeremiah’s written prophecy, and see the prophet continue speaking God’s word despite rejection and imprisonment.So settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as today’s reading reminds us that even when circumstances seem beyond repair, nothing is too hard for the Lord and His purposes cannot be silenced.Highlighted VersesJeremiah 32:17“Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee.”Jeremiah 32:27“Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?”Jeremiah 32:40“And I will make an everlasting covenant with them, that I will not turn away from them, to do them good.”Jeremiah 33:3“Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.”Jeremiah 33:6“Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth.”Jeremiah 33:8“And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have sinned against me.”Jeremiah 33:11“O give thanks to the LORD of hosts: for the LORD is good; for his mercy endureth for ever.”Jeremiah 33:15“In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David.”Jeremiah 33:16“And this is the name wherewith she shall be called, The LORD our righteousness.”Jeremiah 35:14“The words of Jonadab the son of Rechab, that he commanded his sons not to drink wine, are performed.”

    Jeremiah 26–31 | I Know the Thoughts I Think Toward You

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we continue through the book of Jeremiah with chapters 26 through 31 from the King James Version.Jeremiah’s message places him in danger as priests, prophets, and leaders call for his death. Yet he remains faithful to the word God has given him. As false prophets promise a quick end to Babylonian rule, Jeremiah warns that the exile will continue and urges the captives to build homes, plant gardens, raise families, and seek the peace of the place where they now live.Amid these difficult circumstances come some of Jeremiah’s most beloved promises. The Lord tells His people that He knows the thoughts He thinks toward them—thoughts of peace—and promises that those who seek Him with all their heart will find Him.Then the tone turns increasingly toward restoration. God promises healing, return, everlasting love, renewed joy, and a new covenant written not upon tablets of stone but upon the heart: “I will be their God, and they shall be my people.”Settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as Jeremiah chapters 26 to 31 carry us from opposition and exile toward healing, hope, restoration, and the promise of a new covenant.Highlighted VersesJeremiah 26:13“Therefore now amend your ways and your doings, and obey the voice of the LORD your God.”Jeremiah 29:7“And seek the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be carried away captives, and pray unto the LORD for it.”Jeremiah 29:11“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil.”Jeremiah 29:13“And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.”Jeremiah 30:17“For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the LORD.”Jeremiah 31:3“Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.”Jeremiah 31:13“For I will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow.”Jeremiah 31:25“For I have satiated the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrowful soul.”Jeremiah 31:31“Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah.”Jeremiah 31:33“I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.”Jeremiah 31:34“For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.”

    Jeremiah 18–25 | The Potter, the Prophet, and the Coming Judgment

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we continue through the book of Jeremiah with chapters 18 through 25 from the King James Version.Jeremiah is sent to the potter’s house, where he watches a vessel being shaped and reshaped in the craftsman’s hands. Through this simple image, the Lord reminds Judah that nations and people remain in His hands, and that repentance can still change the course of judgment.But Jeremiah’s message brings increasing opposition. He is mocked, threatened, struck, and placed in the stocks, yet the word of God burns within him like a fire that cannot be contained. The prophet wrestles openly with the cost of his calling while continuing to proclaim the truth entrusted to him.These chapters also look ahead to both judgment and hope. Jeremiah warns of Babylon’s coming domination, yet he also speaks of a righteous Branch from the house of David whose name will be called “THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.”Settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as Jeremiah chapters 18 to 25 lead us through the potter’s house, the prophet’s struggles, solemn warnings, and the enduring sovereignty and faithfulness of God.Highlighted VersesJeremiah 18:6“Behold, as the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are ye in mine hand, O house of Israel.”Jeremiah 20:9“Then I said, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in his name. But his word was in mine heart as a burning fire shut up in my bones.”Jeremiah 20:11“But the LORD is with me as a mighty terrible one.”Jeremiah 22:29“O earth, earth, earth, hear the word of the LORD.”Jeremiah 23:5“Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous Branch.”Jeremiah 23:6“And this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.”Jeremiah 23:23–24“Am I a God at hand, saith the LORD, and not a God afar off?Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him?”Jeremiah 23:29“Is not my word like as a fire? saith the LORD; and like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?”Jeremiah 24:7“And I will give them an heart to know me, that I am the LORD.”Jeremiah 25:11“And this whole land shall be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years.”

    Jeremiah 11–17 | Blessed Is the Man Who Trusts in the Lord

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we continue through the book of Jeremiah with chapters 11 through 17 from the King James Version.Jeremiah proclaims that Judah has broken its covenant with the Lord and returned to idolatry. When a conspiracy forms against his life, the prophet brings his fear, grief, and unanswered questions honestly before God. Through drought, famine, false prophecy, and approaching judgment, Jeremiah carries the sorrow of a people who have rejected the fountain of living waters.Yet these chapters also contain enduring words of faith and hope. Jeremiah declares that God’s words were the joy and rejoicing of his heart. He looks ahead to the nations coming to the Lord, and he contrasts those who trust in human strength with those who trust in God—like a tree planted beside the waters, whose leaves remain green even in drought.Settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as Jeremiah chapters 11 to 17 invite us to bring our questions before God, examine the hidden places of the heart, and place our confidence in the Lord who searches, heals, and sustains.Highlighted VersesJeremiah 12:1“Righteous art thou, O LORD, when I plead with thee: yet let me talk with thee of thy judgments: Wherefore doth the way of the wicked prosper?”Jeremiah 13:23“Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? then may ye also do good, that are accustomed to do evil.”Jeremiah 14:9“Yet thou, O LORD, art in the midst of us, and we are called by thy name; leave us not.”Jeremiah 15:16“Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart.”Jeremiah 16:19“O LORD, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of affliction.”Jeremiah 17:7–8“Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is.For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river.”Jeremiah 17:9–10“The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins.”Jeremiah 17:14“Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.”Sleepy Scriptures, Jeremiah 11-17, Jeremiah chapters 11 to 17, Jeremiah KJV, Book of Jeremiah, King James Bible, KJV Bible reading, Bible reading for sleep, Scripture for sleep, peaceful Bible reading, relaxing Bible reading, Christian sleep meditation, one year Bible, Bible in a year, Old Testament reading, prophet Jeremiah, broken covenant, Jeremiah’s lament, words were found and I did eat them, Jeremiah 15:16, tree planted by the waters, Jeremiah 17:7, blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, deceitful heart, Jeremiah 17:9, heal me O Lord, Jeremiah 17:14, trust in God, Christian meditation, calming scripture, bedtime Bible reading, soothing Bible narration, peaceful Christian video.

    Jeremiah 5–10 | Stand Ye in the Ways and See

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we continue through the book of Jeremiah with chapters 5 through 10 from the King James Version.Jeremiah searches the streets of Jerusalem for those who seek truth, but finds a people who have turned away from the Lord. Through the prophet, God warns Judah of approaching judgment, false worship, injustice, and confidence in outward religion without inward obedience.Yet amid these solemn words comes a gracious invitation: “Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way.” Jeremiah calls the people back to faithful obedience, while grieving over their spiritual wounds and asking, “Is there no balm in Gilead?”These chapters also contrast powerless idols with the living God, the everlasting King who made the earth by His power and established the world by His wisdom. Settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as Jeremiah chapters 5 to 10 invite us toward humility, truth, repentance, and renewed trust in the Lord.Jeremiah 5:3“O LORD, are not thine eyes upon the truth?”Jeremiah 6:16“Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls.”Jeremiah 7:23“Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people.”Jeremiah 8:20“The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved.”Jeremiah 8:22“Is there no balm in Gilead; is there no physician there?”Jeremiah 9:23–24“Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches:But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me.”Jeremiah 10:6“Forasmuch as there is none like unto thee, O LORD; thou art great, and thy name is great in might.”Jeremiah 10:10“But the LORD is the true God, he is the living God, and an everlasting king.”Jeremiah 10:12“He hath made the earth by his power, he hath established the world by his wisdom, and hath stretched out the heavens by his discretion.”Sleepy Scriptures, Jeremiah 5-10, Jeremiah chapters 5 to 10, Jeremiah KJV, Book of Jeremiah, King James Bible, KJV Bible reading, Bible reading for sleep, Scripture for sleep, peaceful Bible reading, relaxing Bible reading, Christian sleep meditation, one year Bible, Bible in a year, Old Testament reading, prophet Jeremiah, ancient paths, Jeremiah 6:16, good way, balm in Gilead, Jeremiah 8:22, let not the wise man glory, Jeremiah 9:23, knoweth me, Jeremiah 9:24, the Lord is the true God, Jeremiah 10:10, temple of the Lord, Jeremiah 7, Christian meditation, calming scripture, bedtime Bible reading, sleep Bible, soothing Bible narration, peaceful Christian video.

    Isaiah 64–66 & Jeremiah 1–4 | A New Heavens and a Prophet Called

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we conclude the book of Isaiah with chapters 64 through 66 and begin the book of Jeremiah with chapters 1 through 4, read from the King James Version.Isaiah closes with a prayer for God to reveal His power, a humble confession that we are the clay and the Lord is our potter, and a glorious promise of new heavens and a new earth. The Lord speaks of comfort, restoration, judgment, and a future in which all flesh will come to worship before Him.We then meet Jeremiah, whom God knew and appointed before his birth. Though the young prophet feels unprepared, the Lord assures him: “Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee.” Jeremiah is given the difficult task of calling Judah away from forsaking the fountain of living waters and back to the God they have forgotten.Settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as Isaiah’s final vision gives way to Jeremiah’s call—a journey through divine compassion, human wandering, repentance, and the enduring invitation to return to the Lord.Highlighted VersesIsaiah 64:8“But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand.”Isaiah 65:17“For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.”Isaiah 65:24“And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.”Isaiah 66:1“Thus saith the LORD, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool.”Isaiah 66:13“As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem.”Jeremiah 1:5“Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee.”Jeremiah 1:8“Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the LORD.”Jeremiah 1:9“Then the LORD put forth his hand, and touched my mouth.

    Isaiah 55–63 | Arise, Shine, for Thy Light Is Come

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we continue through the book of Isaiah with chapters 55 through 63 from the King James Version.The reading begins with God’s gracious invitation to everyone who thirsts: “Come ye to the waters.” Isaiah calls us to seek the Lord while He may be found and reminds us that God’s thoughts and ways are higher than our own. His word will not return empty, but will accomplish the purpose for which He sends it.These chapters speak of true worship, justice, healing, guidance, and peace. We hear the promise that the Lord will guide His people continually, the assurance that His hand is not shortened that it cannot save, and the radiant call: “Arise, shine; for thy light is come.”Isaiah also foretells the anointed One who brings good tidings to the meek, binds up the brokenhearted, and gives beauty for ashes. Settle in with gentle narration, soothing music, and peaceful visuals as Isaiah chapters 55 to 63 lead us toward mercy, restoration, everlasting light, and praise.Highlighted VersesIsaiah 55:1“Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat.”Isaiah 55:6“Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near.”Isaiah 55:8–9“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.”Isaiah 55:11“So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void.”Isaiah 56:7“For mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people.”Isaiah 57:15“For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy.”Isaiah 58:11“And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought.”Isaiah 59:1“Behold, the LORD'S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear.”Isaiah 60:1“Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.”Isaiah 60:20“The LORD shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended.”Isaiah 61:1“The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek.”Isaiah 61:3“To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness.”Isaiah 63:9“In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them.”

    Isaiah 46–54 | He Was Wounded for Our Transgressions

    In this Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible episode, we continue through the book of Isaiah with chapters 46 through 54 from the King James Version.These chapters proclaim the incomparable greatness of God, who carries His people from birth to old age and faithfully accomplishes all His purposes.
