In this short chapter, Isaiah reveals another message from God. Here’s the beginning of the message concerning the destruction of Moab: “In one night your cities of Ar and Kir will be destroyed. Your people in Dibon will mourn at their temples and shrines, weeping for the fate of Nebo and Medeba. They will shave their heads in sorrow and cut off their beards. They will wear sackcloth as they wander the streets. From every home will come the sound of weeping. The cries from the cities of Heshbon and Elealeh will be heard far away, even in Jahaz! The bravest warriors of Moab will cry out in utter terror.” (Isaiah 15:1-4)
The chapter ends with the Lord indicating He is not finished with His anger against Moab. “The stream near Dibon runs red with blood, but I am still not finished with Dibon! Lions will hunt down the survivors, both those who try to run and those who remain behind.” (Isaiah 15:9)
As usual, read the rest of the chapter for yourself, draw some conclusions, make some connections, and strive to deepen your knowledge.
Lord, thank you for your Word today! Help us follow your ways and remain faithful to you. Lord, we love you!
May the Lord bless you and protect you. May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you. May the Lord show you his favor and give you his peace.” (Numbers 6:24-26)
….AND MAY WE ALL PRACTICE THIS WITH ONE ANOTHER.
