Isaiah 34 Body and Spirit


"Come near, nations, and listen; be attentive, you peoples! Let the earth and what fills it listen, the world and all it produces. The LORD is angry with all the nations, enraged against all their host; He has placed them under the ban, given them up to slaughter. Their slain shall be cast out, their corpses shall send up a stench; the mountains shall run with their blood, All the host of heaven shall rot; the heavens shall be rolled up like a scroll. All their host shall wither away, as the leaf wilts on the vine, or as the fig withers on the tree.

It is he who casts the lot for them; his hand measures off their portions; They shall possess it forever, and dwell in it from generation to generation."  ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭34:1-4, 17‬

Isaiah 34  Body and Spirit.  We are made up of body and spirit, physically we are alive and spiritually we are _____________.  From God's viewpoint, He sees the stench rising up, and fruit of the vine wither because of their spiritual dying.  Isaiah spoke of the judgement against Edom because of their thwarting the way of the Israelites and bringing in their false religion.  God watched all that happen, Isaiah spoke of it and today God still watches that happen.  Yet there is hope,  for He sent His Son to pay the price of our transgressions.  Wake up and come alive dead bones, stop stinking the place up.   Recognize the gift that He has given you and live in His presence, fully alive.  

What is God saying to me:  The purity of a child speaks volumes, become like a little child and see.  

Dear Father God, I thank You for speaking with me this morning and responding when I asked for help.  There is simplicity in prayer when we are real with You.  Thank You Father for these challenges, I may not want them but You recognize I need them.  Prayers for a father being operated upon this morning, remove the tumor Lord and bring them the Joy their hearts desire.  Bless this day Lord, make our efforts fruitful as we are being fed by You, in Jesus name, Amen. 

Mary, Queen of the Holy Rosary, Pray for us. 
St Joesph, Foster Father of the Son of God, Pray for us. 


The purity and simplicity of a child speaks volumes.  



Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world.  1 John 4:4b
