Isaiah 10-17
“And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots: And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD; And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the LORD: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears: But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.” Isaiah 11:1-5
Dear God, blessed be Thy holy name through Jesus Christ. Lord, to think that age upon age Your plan was to send Jesus Christ to be the propitiation for our sin. Dear God, my feeble tongue cannot express the vastness of Thy glory and Thy love toward mankind. Forgive the wickedness of my heart and the utter disregard for the truth of Thy word that I have in my heart. Lord, help me to live if the truth that Jesus Christ is my Savior and that You are a thrice holy God. Help me to know through Thy infinite word; the truth of Thy holiness, that I might live my life for Thee in a manner befitting a child of the King.
“And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious.” Isaiah 11:10
Lord, bless Thy holy name for the rest You have brought to all people in Jesus Christ. May all people praise Thy holy name for the glorious rest we have found. Lord, help us to proclaim Thy name throughout the whole earth that every nation may know of Thy Son, Jesus Christ. Help us to live each day in this truth and to love Thee with our whole heart.
