Daily D – Isaiah 55:8-9

by David Bowman | May 2, 2024 | Daily D | 0 comments

Isaiah 55:8, 9 “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, and your ways are not my ways.” This is the Lord’s declaration. “For as heaven is higher than earth, so my ways are higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.“ (CSB)

Elevate your game. Think better thoughts. Take better lead actions. Enjoy better outcomes. Think God’s thoughts after him.

I have never had an original thought. There’s a pretty good chance you haven’t, either. Contrary to many of our teachers along the way, originality is not the most important thing in our writing and speaking. Alignment and attunement with the heart and mind of God are much more important.

God invites us to think with him. (See Isaiah 1:18-20.) He invites to exchange our errant considerations for his perfect understanding and direction (See 55:7.)

We elevate our game and we improve our lives by pondering God’s words of truth and life. We do this when we make time to read the Bible day by day. We enhance this when we commit to memory verses like these. Knowing God’s heart and mind and allowing him to shape our own leads us in the right direction as we navigate our journeys day by day.

How high will you jump or bounce today? God has an idea for you on that.

I will elevate my life by thinking God’s thoughts after him.

Our Father, open my heart to your words of truth and life. Give me ears to hear what you are saying. Give me a willing and obedient heart to do what you say, to follow where you lead. Give me your perspective on all things at all times. Amen.

Daily D – Psalm 113:3

Psalm 113:3 From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets,
the name of the LORD is to be praised.

Daily D – Psalm 112:4-5

Psalm 112:4, 5
Even in darkness light dawns for the upright,
for those who are gracious and compassionate and righteous.
Good will come to those who are generous and lend freely,
who conduct their affairs with justice.

Daily D – Isaiah 6:1-7

Isaiah 6:1-7 “In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord, high and exalted, seated on a throne; and the train of his robe filled the temple. Above him were seraphim, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying.

And they were calling to one another:

“Holy, holy, holy is the LORD Almighty;
the whole earth is full of his glory.”

At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook and the temple was filled with smoke.

“Woe to me!” I cried. “I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the LORD Almighty.”

Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with tongs from the altar. With it he touched my mouth and said, “See, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for.”

Daily D – Isaiah 1:18

Isaiah 1:18
“Come now, let us settle the matter,”
says the LORD.
“Though your sins are like scarlet,
they shall be as white as snow;
though they are red as crimson,
they shall be like wool.”

Daily D – 2 Kings 25:27-30

2 Kings 25:27-30 In the thirty-seventh year of the exile of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the year Awel-Marduk became king of Babylon, he released Jehoiachin king of Judah from prison. He did this on the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth month. He spoke kindly to him and gave him a seat of honor higher than those of the other kings who were with him in Babylon. So Jehoiachin put aside his prison clothes and for the rest of his life ate regularly at the king’s table. Day by day the king gave Jehoiachin a regular allowance as long as he lived.
