Isaiah 59 - Day 545

Isaiah 59 - Day 545 (link to today's reading)

Scripture: Isaiah 59:1-8

Commentary (melissabeaty.com): This chapter reveals God’s approach to the problem of sin.  First, He instructs us as to what is happening.  He says that our sins have separated us from Him.  He clearly states what those sins are and tells us that being in sin is like being blind; you fumble around unable to find any light.  When we are in sin, we are removed from righteousness, justice, and deliverance.  Choosing to follow crooked paths instead of a straight path, we have chosen to remove ourselves from the very things that can help us.

Application: Sin not only separates us from God, but it also makes us stupid.  Repent and believe the good news of Jesus.

Prayer: Lord, give me a heart to love You more...
