Bible reading - Isaiah 2:5
“Come people of Israel, let us walk in the light of the LORD” – this
is the solution to the war in Gaza!
It is also a beautiful invitation to all nations to live in the
sunshine of God’s illumination.
In the previous vision of Isaiah, the
same light exposed the rebellion and need of the people. It included the
invitation: “Come now, let us reason together says the LORD, no matter how deep
the stain of your sins , I can remove it…. “
In this 2nd vision, Israel and all the nations are
invited to be taught God’s ways so as to obey Him (verse 3). The outcome is brilliant
– wars cease and prosperity abounds. History records it happening, and the power
of the LORD can make it happen again. It just needs the Hebrew word in action –
“Shuv” - to turn back to the LORD.
I am thrilled to find a good number of people wanting to have a
Bible. I pray that they will invite the Holy Spirit to guide them into the
light of the LORD.
Let us all take significant time out to read and meditate on God’s
word. He will reveal Himself .
“Let the words of Christ, in all their richness, live in your hearts
and make you wise.” (Colossians 3)
