Meeting You Where You Are?
Daily Bible Verse & Prayer
Today's Verse - Isaiah 57:15
For this is what the high and lofty One says — he who lives forever, whose name is holy: "I live in a high and holy place, but also with him who is contrite and lowly in spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly and to revive the heart of the contrite."
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Jesus' gracious and redemptive coming to earth is wholly consistent with the LORD God's nature, the one who reveals himself in the Old Testament, and fully reveals himself in this passage. God is high and holy. God is righteous and majestic. Yet the LORD God is the God of incarnation — the LORD who sees our needs, hears our cries, and comes down to help us (Exodus 3:7-12). God loves people, especially people who come to him knowing that they need his love and grace. To those who seek him with passion, humility, awe, and reverence, God brings revival that touches the heart and spirit of those who are contrite.
My Prayer...
Holy and Righteous Father, thank you for loving me and coming to save me in Jesus. Father, I come humbly asking that you fill me with your Spirit in a more powerful way. Revive my heart and stir me to work for your glory in my life today. I know you have come and met me where I am, to lift me up and make me yours. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.

"Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye."
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Jesus reminds us in his Sermon on the Mount about a destructive sin that often afflicts his followers: trying to deflect our guilt by finding fault in others. Finding fault with someone else is all too easy for most of us. Finding fault in ourselves is much trickier. Jesus reminds us that we must deal with the shortcomings and sins in our own lives before we start telling others how to live their life. Deflection, blaming, and finding fault are destructive to our allegiance to the LORD and our desire to honor him. So, let's confess our sins (James 5:16) and not find fault in others (Matthew 7:1-2). Seems pretty simple. But we all know it isn't. So, dear friend of Jesus, let's pray for the Holy Spirit's help to be gracious and forgiving toward others, and humbly confess our faults to one another.
My Prayer...
Father, please forgive me because I have sometimes been severe, harsh, and judgmental toward others. I am aware that there are issues in my own life that I need to address with the guidance of your Holy Spirit. I confess that there are routine sins that I often excuse in myself. Please, dear LORD, forgive my sins of deflecting my guilt by blaming others and finding fault in others. Please empower me to move beyond it to become a more gracious and redemptive disciple of Jesus. Amen.

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. For I am the LORD, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior...
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
We must be careful. These verses are NOT promises to an individual, but to Israel as the people of God in the days they were written (Isaiah 43:1). God is reminding ancient Israel that they are precious to him. He formed them and redeemed them. He was not about to abandon them. No matter what challenges or difficulties they face, he would be with them to deliver them and bring them to safety and victory. As followers of Jesus, whom God brought into his people by grace (1 Peter 2:9-10; Galatians 6:14-16), we can accept these promises as God's people today, as Jesus' church. As believers in Jesus, we can see how God has preserved his people in the past and redeemed them time and time again. We can celebrate how God delivered his people from impossible situations in the past and brought them to the Messiah, Jesus. God will not forget us! We know it by promise. We know it from history. We know it because of our faith! God will bring us victoriously to himself with great joy (Romans 8:37-39; Jude 1:24-25).
My Prayer...
Thank you, Almighty God, for always being near us. We confess that there are times when we are not aware of your nearness and your miraculous intervention in history for us. Nevertheless, we do believe, dear Father, that you are ever-near even when we feel alone. In those times, dear God, please give us confidence and perseverance to stand through the times of trial so that we can also share in your triumphs through us. We believe, O God, that you are with us! In Jesus' name, pray and confess our faith in you. Amen.
