October 24
Introduction
Outwardly, the people continued to worship the LORD. But their acts of worship were meaningless because they did not treat one another with justice and respect. True worship involved more than ritual acts of honor or praise.
Scripture Reading
Isaiah 58:1‒14
Today’s Key Verse: Isaiah 58:9
[The LORD says:] “When you pray, I will answer you. When you call to me, I will respond.”
Reflect
How is true worship/fasting described? What are the people instructed to do to gain the LORD’s favor? What does the LORD promise? How would you describe the worship life of your community of faith? In what ways do you value and honor the LORD’s “holy day”?
Pray
Lord God, teach me to honor you each day with acts of kindness and by pursuing justice and peace. Help me to live in the light of your truth. In your holy name, I pray. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Jeremiah 7:1‒15: Jeremiah preaches in the Temple.
