获取软件Daily Bible Reading – April 2020 God’s Life-Giving Word Of Hope预览
April 4
Introduction
This passage is the fourth and last “servant song” in Isaiah. The other three are Isaiah 42:1-4; 49:1-6; 50:4-9. The servant could be the whole people of Israel, a specially chosen leader, or an individual, such as a prophet, who was treated badly because of what he said. Christians today interpret this passage as a description for Jesus, as did the early church (see Acts 8:32-35).
Today’s Scripture: Isaiah 53:10a
The LORD says, “It was my will that he should suffer; his death was a sacrifice to bring forgiveness.”
Today's Reading
Isaiah 52:13—53:12:
Reflect
The servant in today’s passage is promised success in his mission and reward for his suffering. In what ways does the servant serve? What makes this servant unique? Do you believe his suffering has purpose and/or meaning? Why or why not?
Pray
Gracious God, it is difficult to understand why good people are allowed to suffer. May I be one who offers comfort, patience, and care to those who suffer in my community, that they may know your love. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Those who have lost loved ones and their homes due to fire, gas explosions, and natural disasters
Tomorrow’s Reading
Matthew 21:1-22: Jesus enters Jerusalem.
