Isaiah 55 - Praying God's Word


Please read Isaiah 55.
Meditate on verses 1-2.

Ho!  Every one who thirsts, come to the waters;
and you who have no money come, buy and eat. 
Come, buy wine and milk without money and without cost.
Why do you spend money for what is not bread,
and your wages for what does not satisfy?
Listen carefully to Me and eat what is good,
and delight yourself in abundance.

Do you ever think about the invitation God gives to you? 

You Are Invited
What: A Banquet
Host:  The LORD
Cost:  No cost to you
Come and drink from the waters and eat what is good.
Delight yourself in abundance.
If you accept this invitation,
The LORD will make an everlasting covenant with you!

Isaiah 55 is a beautiful invitation to enter into a covenant relationship with Jesus Christ. Once you have that relationship with Christ, you commemorate it with a covenant meal, the LORD’s Supper/ Communion. What is your reply to this invitation? Do you choose to delight in the LORD’s abundance?
Pray Isaiah 55:6-7 over yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

“LORD, please let ______________ and me seek You
while You may be found.
Let us call upon You while You are near.
Let the wicked forsake their way
and the unrighteous their thoughts.
Let us return to You, LORD.
God, thank You that You have compassion on us,
and You abundantly pardon.
In Your name, Jesus.”

From The WATCHMAN on the WALL by Dr. Ron and Marsha Harvell
