Year 6, Day 44: Isaiah 60

Theological Commentary: Click Here


Discipleship Focus: Provision

  • Provision: God gives us what we truly need.  God knows our needs better than we can know them.  We learn to trust God to provide for us.

When we hit Isaiah 60, we find ourselves back into a chapter of God’s glory.  All throughout this chapter we find ourselves hearing about God’s blessing and His goodness.  We hear about gold and silver and bronze and iron and frankincense entering into the people.  We hear about God’s people drinking the milk of kings.  We hear that God will make people pass through their nation to see their greatness.  We can hear in all of this that this is a chapter about provision.

As it should be, I think that this chapter really gets its strength in its focus upon from where the provision comes.  All of these things come from the hand of God.  The people do not provide for themselves, God provides for them.  As much as this chapter is about the provision found in restoration, we need to not lose sight of the fact that it is God’s provision.  He is the one who can satisfy all of our needs.
