Isaiah 2:2-5

Isaiah 2:2-5
2 In the last days
the mountain of the Lord’s temple will be established
as the highest of the mountains;
it will be exalted above the hills,
and all nations will stream to it.

3 Many peoples will come and say,

“Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord,
to the temple of the God of Jacob.
He will teach us his ways,
so that we may walk in his paths.”
The law will go out from Zion,
the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
4 He will judge between the nations
and will settle disputes for many peoples.
They will beat their swords into plowshares
and their spears into pruning hooks.
Nation will not take up sword against nation,
nor will they train for war anymore.

5 Come, descendants of Jacob,
let us walk in the light of the Lord.

 

 

One thought:

To be in the light is to walk in the ways of the Lord

 

 

Three questions:

Who would Israel have understood this passage to be about?

 

Do you long to walk in the light?

 

What does it look like for you to walk in the light this week?

 

 

Prayer:

Praise God that He is the light and that Jesus came to bring light to our dark world. Give thanks that you have been transferred from the kingdom of darkness to the kingdom of light and now you can walk in the light of the Lord. Ask God to help you +someone else to walk in the light even more this week.
