Daily Bible Reading – August 2023, God’s Saving Word: Encouragement

DAY 5 OF 31

August 5

Introduction

Today's reading lifts up Israel's ancestors, Abraham and Sarah, who obeyed the LORD when they were told to leave their homeland and go to Canaan (Genesis 12:1-5). Isaiah points to their action as an example of obedience to the LORD. Words of comfort and hope are given, along with the assurance of the LORD's deliverance and victory.

Scripture Reading

Isaiah 51:1-16

Today's Key Verse: Isaiah 51:12a

The LORD says, "I am the one who strengthens you."

Reflect

What verses speak of the LORD’s deliverance and victory? What verses speak of God’s promises? What verses remind the people that God is the creator of the heavens and the earth? Reread verses 9-11. For what do the people pray? How does the LORD respond (verses 12-16)?

Pray

Mighty God, you strengthen me day by day as you nurture me with your life-giving Word. I thank and praise you for your teachings as I seek to be obedient to your will. Amen.

Tomorrow's Reading

Isaiah 52:1-12: God will rescue Jerusalem.
