Week 27 - Day 5

Isaiah 33-35

*Click here to read this passage:

The Israelites in the time of Isaiah were not doing a great job of looking to God.  They kept trying to do everything on their own, or they would look to other nations to form alliances with to receive help and strength.  As I’ve been reading through the book of Isaiah I feel like God keeps reminding His people through the prophet Isaiah to just stop what they are doing and look to Him.  Isaiah said in previous chapters, blessed are those who wait on Him and woe to those who make their own plans and look to others for help. 

 The lyrics from a Chris Tomlin song keep coming to mind:

“And if our God is for us, then who could ever stop us?
And if our God is with us, then what could stand against?”


“O Lord, be gracious to us; we long for you.  Be our strength every morning, our salvation in time of distress.”  (33:2)
