Introduction

The land of God’s people is pictured as blooming and rejoicing because the LORD will bring his people back from exile. The people will travel on a highway called “The Road of Holiness” that the LORD will prepare.

Scripture Reading

Today’s Key Verse: Isaiah 35:2b

Everyone will see the LORD’s splendor, see his greatness and power.

Reflect

Water was the most precious natural resource in the dry lands where God’s people lived. The image of a desert turning into a land “filled with springs” (verse 7) symbolizes God’s abundance. In what ways do you experience God’s abundance in your life?

Pray

God of abundance, your Word today is one of gladness and joy. Open my eyes, ears, and heart to your splendor so that I can proclaim your greatness and power. You alone are holy, and I sing your praises. Amen.

Prayer Concern

Those who are ill and weak.
