The Day of the Lord

Date: Mar. 28, 2022

Passage

Isaiah 2:5-22 (ESV)

Daily Bread

Key Verse: 2:20

  In that day mankind will cast away
    their idols of silver and their idols of gold,
  which they made for themselves to worship,
    to the moles and to the bats,

The day of the LORD will reveal the superficiality of every idol that people have built up and put their trust in. This may include wealth, possessions, or one’s own fame or position or desired achievement. When our life’s worth is dependent on material things or endless human achievement, then it becomes a house on shifting sands.

Are there any pursuits that have taken away from real healing and real fulfillment in your life? The day of the LORD is coming, and when it does, may we recognize the futility of worthless pursuits. May we choose to live intentionally in the splendor of God’s sovereign reign in our lives. May we choose people over profits and grace over being right in our own minds. Let us love God and others deeply from the heart.

Prayer: Prayer: Lord, there are so many things that enchant me and fill my heart with desires yet always leave me unfulfilled, yet I cling to them. Humble me, and help me to cast them away and see the surpassing worth of knowing Christ.

One Word: One Word: Walk in the light of the Lord
