Wednesday – Isaiah 11-12
1. Here Jesus is called the Branch of Jesse, who is the father of King David. His family tree will be cut down to the point that it is like a dead stump. Yet a living Branch will rise from his line. What other descriptions do you see in the first five verses of chapter 11 that fit Jesus well?
2. The rest of chapter 11 gives us an incredible glimpse of what heaven will be like. What descriptions do you find most fascinating? How does the description differ from the world around us right now?
3. Isaiah gives us a foretaste of the songs we will be singing in heaven in chapter 12. This has been called “The First Song of Isaiah” and we sometimes sing a version of it in church. For what blessings do we praise the Lord?
