Isaiah

Isaiah 1:1-20

Passage

Isaiah was a prophet during the reign of 5 kings in the southern kingdom of Judah. According to history, most of the kings followed God and did what was right. However, it was apparent that the people of Israel/Judah were being led astray in their actual practices.

The passage above declares that although the people were from Israel, they behave as though they did not know who God was or what He did for them. They were just going through the motions. Isaiah tried to explain that it is because of their actions, that God was ignoring their requests.

Isaiah closes out with a promise. If we return to God, and repent, He will make our sin as white as snow, through Jesus. Let us recognize when we have turned astray, and accept the gift God provided through the sacrifice of His Son to purify and restore a right relationship with God.
