EZEKIEL 34-35:
In
Ezekiel yesterday, we heard of how Pharaoh was to be mocked in the
world of the dead. Then we heard of God’s justice, which he showed
by the illustration of Ezekiel as a watchman for a city.
ISAIAH 13:
Yesterday’s reading in Isaiah was a psalm of
praise including these poetic lines:
Is. 12:2b-4b NLT The LORD GOD is
my strength and my song;
he
has given me victory.
3
With joy you will drink deeply
from
the fountain of salvation!
…
4b
Tell the nations what he has done.
Let
them know how mighty he is!
HEBREWS 9:
Important conclusions from yesterday’s reading
include:
Heb. 8:6 NLT But now Jesus, our
High Priest, has been given a ministry that is far superior to the
old priesthood, for he is the one who mediates for us a far better
covenant with God, based on better promises.
13
When God speaks of a “new” covenant, it means he has made the first
one obsolete. It is now out of date and will soon
disappear.
