Light Reflection-Isaiah 6:8 Prophecies of Isaiah

JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Light Reflection is from Isaiah 6:8.

Isaiah responded to an invitation from the LORD, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?” Isaiah said, “Here am I. Send me!”

Making ourselves available to God is the key first step to being a light for His kingdom.

Isaiah became a prophet who pointed people to Jesus. His prophecies contained significant details about Jesus. Those prophecies included His birth, death and resurrection.

One vivid example was Isaiah 53:5, “He was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.”

In this prophecy, Isaiah drew attention to Jesus, shining the hope of peace and healing for us through His sacrifice on the cross.

This Light Reflection inspires us to make ourselves available to God as an instrument of His grace in the Year to Shine.
