71 Days of Isaiah Plan

¹⁸“Listen, you who are deaf! Look and see, you blind!

¹⁹Who is as blind as my own people, my servant? Who is as deaf as my messenger? Who is as blind as my chosen people, the servant of the LORD?

²⁰You see and recognize what is right but refuse to act on it. You hear with your ears, but you don’t really listen.”

²¹Because he is righteous, the LORD has exalted his glorious law.

²²But his own people have been robbed and plundered, enslaved, imprisoned, and trapped. They are fair game for anyone and have no one to protect them, no one to take them back home.

²³Who will hear these lessons from the past and see the ruin that awaits you in the future?

²⁴Who allowed Israel to be robbed and hurt? It was the LORD, against whom we sinned, for the people would not walk in his path, nor would they obey his law.

²⁵Therefore, he poured out his fury on them and destroyed them in battle. They were enveloped in flames, but they still refused to understand. They were consumed by fire, but they did not learn their lesson.
