Sunrise on Temple Mount in Jerusalem; Back to Previous Devotion

July 31 - Morning

"In those days Hezekiah became ill and was at the point of death. The prophet Isaiah son of Amoz went to him and said,

'This is what the Lord says:
"Put your house in order, because you are going to die; you will not recover.” '

Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and
prayed to the Lord,

'Remember, Lord, how I have walked before you faithfully and with wholehearted devotion and
have done what is good in your eyes.'

And Hezekiah wept bitterly.

Then the word of the Lord came to Isaiah:
'Go and tell Hezekiah, "This is what the Lord, the God of your father David, says:

I have heard your prayer and seen your tears; I will add fifteen years to your life. And I will deliver you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria. I will defend this city. This is the Lord’s sign to you that the Lord will do what he has promised: I will make the shadow cast by the sun go back the ten steps it has gone down on the stairway of Ahaz." '

So the sunlight went back the ten steps it had gone down."

- Isaiah 38:1-8

Speak with Boldness and Listen with Humility    

First of all, it is important to realize that Isaiah’s words were bold and independent for this age and for the role of the prophet. Royal prophets, or those who had access to the king, would seek a better word and a more positive omen to pronounce than, “You are going to die; you will not recover.” This is an indication of Isaiah’s willingness to speak for the Lord to men instead of speaking for men.

Isaiah’s bold words will cause him great difficulties including martyrdom when spoken to a man in rebellion to God, for example, Hezekiah’s son, Manasseh). But, life altering events occur when the bold truth is spoken to a man of God who takes seriously the things of the Lord.

Hezekiah repents, calls on the promises of God and Isaiah does get a more favorable word from the Lord.

We must remember to speak the truth with confidence and with hope.
We must learn to hear the truth with humbleness and anticipation of God’s good intervention.

  Christian Quote from Church History
"A woman rushed up to famed violinist Fritz Kreisler after a concert and cried: "I'd give my life to play as beautifully as you do." Kreisler replied, "I did." Even nature teaches us that results require long, hard, patient, careful work. The Christian life is no different."
Something to Ponder??

24.5% of Americans now say their primary form of spiritual nourishment is meeting with a small group of 20 or less people every week. This is taken from a quote from an online article from HERE:

“(a recently finished) study on alternative faith communities…found that a growing number of people are finding Christian discipleship and community in places other than their local churches. The study found that 24.5% of Americans now say their primary form of spiritual nourishment is meeting with a small group of 20 or less people every week. About 6 million people meet weekly with a small group and never or rarely go to church," Stetzer says. "There is a significant movement happening."

An elaborate tomb system belonging to the priestly family named Bene Hezir (or, sons of Hezir) can be easily seen when viewing the Kidron Valley from outside the Eastern Wall of the Old City Jerusalem. The priestly family of Hezir is mentioned in
1 Chronicles 24:15 as being in the line of Aaron and serving during the days of David. The inscription in the tomb lists the names of the priests and says they were priests of the Hezir family. This tomb was in use during Jesus’ time.

and do not join with
