“That day” is a recurring expression in Isaiah’s prophecy. It makes sense to assume that it refers to a future divine visitation from Yahweh. Regardless, God watches the events of this world from His heavenly vantage point, keeps records, and will eventually right all wrongs, punish those who have violated His ways, and reward those whose lives pleased Him. He faithfully warns offenders through His prophets and preachers.

We are wise to heed His warnings and live in the protective shelter of His Son, Christ Jesus. “In Him we [can] live, and move, and have our being.”

DAILY PRAYER: Lord Jesus, You are my hope and refuge. I rest in You and will live out Your teachings with my life.

DAILY READING: Isaiah 31-34
