PAIN

Pain in life is a universal experience — it falls on the righteous and the unrighteous. People often search for a reason behind trials and tragedies, but answers are elusive since humans cannot fully know the purposes of God. The Bible suggests that in some instances, pain might be punishment for specific sins, a test of faith, fatherly discipline or a means to drive people to repentance. Usually clear meaning is absent, especially in situations of ongoing suffering. From the pit of pain, the psalmist reached for confidence in God — the one who had been his faithful King for a long time (v. 12). He knew of God’s capabilities, yet wondered when relief would come.

Jesus frequently stepped into people’s lives during a point of great pain. He performed a miracle for a grieving mother at a funeral (Lk 7:13 – 15). He touched and healed a man with leprosy (Mt 8:2 – 3). He changed the lives of a bleeding woman and a worried father over the course of just a few minutes (Mk 5:22 – 42). Jesus is full of compassion for the pain caused by this world. He is eager for people to know that he cares deeply about their trouble. Jesus is a dependable source of comfort in the face of suffering (2Co 1:3 – 6).

Jesus, I pray for those who are in pain right now. I pray that you would work through that pain so you may be glorified. Please give me compassion for those who suffer, and show me how to help them in practical, real ways. Amen.

True Freedom is Here

Everyone thinks about freedom differently. Most people would say freedom is a virtue that should be sought, but that idea changes depending on how it’s defined.

A lot of people think freedom is the absence of restraints. We are truly free when we are free from things that hold us back. Others define freedom by our human will—if we can choose what we want, then we can be free.

These ideas are a bit different from what we find in Scripture. According to God’s Word, freedom is found wherever God is found. Freedom is found when we live according to God’s original design for our life.

When we begin our life with Jesus, He gives us a new heart and way to live. He also sends the Spirit of God to live within us. Paul says in 2 Corinthians 3:17 that wherever the Spirit of the Lord is, there is true freedom. That means all of us who believe in Jesus have access to this freedom.

Freedom doesn’t come from doing whatever we want, but from living according to the Spirit of God who lives within us.

Paul goes on to say that those of us who belong to the Lord should spend time in God’s presence. It’s only when we sit with God daily that we are transformed by Him. Through God’s Word and talking with Him, we have access to true life transformation and true freedom.

Can you identify one or two things that are holding you back from living this way? It may be an unresolved conflict or a recurring sin. Whatever it is, spend some time with God today—asking for forgiveness and seeking out your next steps. Spend time in His presence through prayer and reading Scripture. Your life will be transformed if you continue to spend time with the One who can thoroughly change you.

FINAL WARNINGS

Isaiah’s prophecy closes with the promise that God’s Word will go out to the ends of the earth (v. 19). As a result, the kingdom of God will be filled with both the people of Israel and with those from the Gentile nations. Though in the past these idolatrous nations have attacked God and his people, they will one day come to worship and glorify their true King.

But there will also be those who do not come, those who do not receive God’s Word in repentance and faith. Isaiah’s prophecy closes with a vision of judgment, looking upon a scene filled with the corpses of rebels (v. 24). Jesus quoted this verse in picturing a grisly image of hell (Mk 9:48). These two descriptions define two alternatives for those who hear the message. They can either trust in the Lord and claim the salvation that comes through his servant Jesus and live, or they can continue in rebellion and die. The stark reality of these two alternatives shows people not only the greatness of the salvation that can only come through Jesus, but also the urgency with which believers must join Isaiah in proclaiming the message of God.

Jesus, thank you for gifting us with free will. Please send your Holy Spirit ahead of me to prepare hearts, and then please send me to proclaim your good news. Amen.
