Podcasts about Isaiah 40

DJ Manna shares three powerful scripture songs to help us live with strength, courage, and faith. With Joshua 1:9, we learn that God is always with us—even when life feels scary, like taking a big test or starting something new. Next, Hebrews 11:1 shows us that faith is believing in what we can't see but know is true because God promises it. Finally, Isaiah 40:8 reminds us that even though everything else in the world fades away, God's word lasts forever. What You'll Learn:

Today's Nations: Australia • Canada • Brazil • Romania • France • Hungary Theme: Strength • Hope • Endurance The middle of the day often tells a different story from the beginning. Energy can begin to fade, unexpected demands can appear and even simple tasks may feel heavier than they did a few hours ago. If today feels like that for you, don't be discouraged. God's strength has never depended on how much strength we have left. Let's pause together and draw near to Him. Scripture (NIV) “But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.” — Isaiah 40:31 Heavenly Father, thank You that when our strength begins to fail, Yours never does. Today we bring You every tired thought, every demanding responsibility and every burden that has quietly settled upon us. Renew us by Your Spirit and remind us that our hope is found in You alone. Give us strength for the next conversation, wisdom for the next decision and grace for the next step. May Your presence refresh our hearts so that we continue through this day with courage, peace and the quiet confidence that comes from walking closely with You. Fear will not win, because the Lord renews the strength of those who place their hope in Him. May the Lord renew your strength today, lift your heart with fresh hope and faithfully walk beside you through every remaining hour.

Today's Nations: United States • United Kingdom • New Zealand • Singapore • Japan • South Africa Theme: Strength • Hope • Renewal A new morning has arrived, but that doesn't always mean we wake feeling strong. Some days begin with hope, while others begin with questions. If today feels bigger than the strength you have, don't carry that thought by yourself. Let's pause together before the day gathers pace and place it into God's hands. Scripture (NIV) ”…but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.” — Isaiah 40:31 Heavenly Father, thank You that You never ask us to rely only on ourselves. When our strength is running low, remind us that Yours never does. Renew tired hearts, steady anxious minds and encourage those quietly carrying more than anyone else can see. Help us to take the next step with confidence, trusting that You are already walking ahead of us. Fill this day with Your grace, Your wisdom and the quiet assurance that You are enough. Fear will not win, because the Lord renews the strength of those who place their hope in Him. May the Lord strengthen you today, give you courage for each step and remind you that His faithfulness will carry you.

What if the chaos, decline, and spiritual emptiness you see all around you in 2026 are not signs that God has forgotten us, but signs that he is about to do something new? This week, Pastor Joshua Brown opens a brand new series in Isaiah to show that God's people have always been called to read the signs of the times, and that the church's greatest witness is a community who can smell the rain coming before anyone else even checks the forecast.

20 Proverbs 30-31; 23 Isaiah 40-46; 19 Psalms 145-150; 48 Galatians 3-6; 49 Ephesians 1-3

Isaiah 40:6-8 answers the question, starting a hope-filled section. Israel faced exile due to sin: Jerusalem fell, the temple was destroyed, and people were taken to Babylon. Everything stable was shaken. Before promising restoration, God reminds His people that human life is temporary; nations, kings, and empires rise and fall, eventually disappearing. But above all the uncertainty of history stands one unchanging reality: “The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God stands forever.”

Today's Bible Verse:: "Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these? He who brings out the starry host one by one and calls forth each of them by name. Because of his great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing. Why do you complain, Jacob? Why do you say, Israel, ‘My way is hidden from the Lord; my cause is disregarded by my God’?" — Isaiah 40:26–27 Feeling Forgotten? Look to the Stars. Isaiah 40:26–27 speaks directly to anyone who has ever wondered if God sees them. The people of Israel felt abandoned during a season of hardship, questioning whether God had forgotten their struggles. In response, God pointed them to the night sky. Every star had been created by Him, every one called by name, and not a single one was missing from His care. If God knows every star in the universe, how much more does He know the details of your life? The God who holds countless galaxies together also knows your fears, your prayers, your disappointments, and your hopes. When life feels overwhelming or your prayers seem unanswered, His silence should never be mistaken for His absence.

From Trying To Trusting #Nightlight #RTTBROS Isaiah 40:31:"But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and shall walk, and not faintAt night as the world begins to quiet down, we often find ourselves in a state of exhaustion. We've run our race, we've faced our battles, and sometimes, we feel utterly drained. We look at the calendar and see another day looming, and the weight of it can feel heavy.But tonight, I want to talk about a different kind of energy, an energy that doesn't come from caffeine or sheer willpower. It's about being continually refueled. And the promise of that renewal is found in the Word of God.Let's look at a powerful promise from the book of Isaiah. The King James Version says in Isaiah 40:31:"But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and shall walk, and not faint."Notice the key phrase here: "Wait upon the Lord." This isn's not passive waiting, like waiting for a bus. It is an active, expectant waiting. It is leaning into God, trusting Him, and allowing Him to be the source of your power.To help us understand what this renewal looks like, I want to share a short illustration.Think about the great preacher Charles Stanley. He often spoke about the difference between the trying and trusting. He would tell us that many people try to live life like a machine. They try to push themselves, they push their own limits, they try to be the engine of their own life. They run until they are broken. They run until they are exhausted.But Stanley would tell us, "My brothers and sisters, you cannot run on your own strength. You are not a machine. You are a vessel. And a vessel needs to be filled."He would tell us that the Christian life is not about trying to be strong; it is about waiting on the One who is infinitely strong. He would say in essence "When you are tired, when you are weary, that is not the time to push harder. That is the time to stop. That is the time to look up. That is time to remember that the One who is the Eagle. That One who can lift you up."That is the difference. The difference between the trying and trusting. Tonight, as you prepare for sleep, I invite you do this: Stop trying to solve tomorrow's problems in your head. Stop trying to force yourself to be okay. Instead, pause. Breathe. And consciously "wait upon the Lord."Ask Him to renew your strength. Ask Him to lift you, not just to survive the day, but to soar with wings like an eagle. Let Him take the weariness from your shoulders and replace it with His enduring power.May the peace of God, which passes all understanding, guard your heart and mind. Sleep well, and may you wake up renewed.

The Anointing That Destroys the Enemy's Yoke Matthew 11:28-30 When Jesus tells us to take His yoke, it implies we must first get rid of the enemy's heavy yoke. These verses show how God shatters the heavy weights of oppression, legalism, and fear. Isaiah 40:29-31 (NKJV): "He gives power to the weak, and to those who have no might He increases strength... But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint." "Waiting on the Lord" is the Old Testament equivalent of being yoked to Christ. It's an exchange—you lay down your limited, human capability and pick up His infinite, tireless power.

Ever felt like you had nothing left to give? That's the place where a divine substitution is made for those who have a hope-filled dependence on God. let's pray...

How can Christians maintain everyday faith when life gets hard? When we grow weary? Rather than being a simplistic band-aid, Isaiah 40 offers a rock-solid hope that when we look to God, we will find renewed strength to keep going.

When we sin, does God abandon us? No! And today in our study of Isaiah 40, we see a clear example of this principle as God comforts His people even while they are in exile under His judgment. Isaiah 40 is a well-known chapter that will be even more cherished as we examine the comfort of the Lord.  DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS: 1.    The podcast mentioned that Isaiah 40 represents a major shift in the tone and theme of the book of Isaiah. What is that shift and why do you think it occurs here?  2.    According to the podcast, what are the overall circumstances that this passage is prophetically speaking to? Who is the intended audience and why do they need to hear this message of comfort?  3.    In verse 1, why does the Lord want His people to know His comfort and "kind words"? What has been the Lord's message up until now? Why is this change necessary?  4.    In verse 3, who will bring their comfort?  5.    In past episodes of the podcast, we've discussed how often prophecies are like a "mountain range" where there are small fulfillments along the way to confirm the validity of the promises and encourage us to wait for their ultimate fulfillment when Christ returns to establish His kingdom. With this in mind, what event is being spoken of in verses 4 to 11? How was this partially fulfilled at the end of the exile? How was this partially fulfilled in Christ's first coming? How will this ultimately be fulfilled in His Second Coming?  6.    How would the restoration being spoken about in these verses bring comfort to people who are under God's judgment?  7.    In verse 10, why is the word "GOD" in all caps? In light of your answer, what is the nature of the Messiah that is being spoken of in these verses?  8.    Look over verses 10 to 12. How do these verses reveal the fingerprints of the Trinity?  9.    How does Isaiah describe God's relationship to His people in verse 11? How was this fulfilled by Jesus? 10.    What do verses 12 to 14 tell us about the wisdom and power of God? Why is this so important for establishing the kind of faith that waits for the Lord?  11.    In verses 15 to 17, is the Lord bound by the machinations of the nations? Why is that answer vital for us to know as God unfolds His plans for the world?  12.    Read over verses 18 to 26. What do these verses tell you about the power and wisdom of God? Which ones do you find most meaningful? Why? 13.    Verses 28 to 31 give a famous passage of scripture. Think about what the Lord has been saying through Isaiah for the past 39 chapters. What new point is He making here? Why is this vital to being able to wait for the Lord? Why do we need Him to strengthen us to wait for Him?  14.    In your own life, are there any places where you need to wait for the Lord? Have you sought His strengthening grace that you might wait for Him with enduring faithfulness? What does this kind of waiting look like in your life?  Check out our Bible Study Guide on the Key Chapters of Genesis! Available on Amazon just in time for the Genesis relaunch in January!

Isaiah 40:6-8New Living Translation6 A voice said, “Shout!”    I asked, “What should I shout?”“Shout that people are like the grass.    Their beauty fades as quickly    as the flowers in a field.7 The grass withers and the flowers fade    beneath the breath of the Lord.    And so it is with people.8 The grass withers and the flowers fade,    but the word of our God stands forever.”Music: "Rest in the Shadow" by Julian & Melissa Wiggins,Used with permission.

The Prophesied King, week six

On this episode, we dive into the powerful message of Isaiah 40:31 and what it truly means to wait without losing faith. In seasons of delay, uncertainty, and unanswered prayers, it can be difficult to stay encouraged—but waiting is not wasted time when trust is placed in God. This discussion explores how patience, endurance, and faith work together to renew strength, shift perspective, and prepare us for what's ahead. Even in the waiting, there is growth, purpose, and a promise that those who trust in the Lord will rise, run, and not grow weary. #TrueFoundation #FaithOverFear #Isaiah4031 #TrustTheProcess #WaitOnTheLord #FaithJourney

Send us Fan MailToday's spiritual warfare scripture comes from Isaiah 40:31.“But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings as eagles, they shall run and not be weary, and they shall walk and not faint.”One of the most powerful weapons in our spiritual warfare arsenal is waiting on God. It is powerful because we do not realize what He is doing in the background for us while we are waiting. But when we are obedient to the Word of God, which tells us to “wait upon the Lord,” we honor Him, and because we honor Him by honoring His Word, He will do for us what Isaiah 40:31 says He will do.I speak based on a recent personal experience I alluded to in the last podcast. It took four years with a situation that was very painful, but in the end, in thecourse of my waiting and being obedient, praying, fasting, and listening to the Holy Spirit — in the end, God showed me all that he was doing in the background while I was waiting on Him to bring success so that I could mount up with wings as an eagle. God moved my enemies out of the way, exposed their lies, and empowered me, emotionally, financially, and most of allspiritually. He is now teaching me to run and not be weary as I fulfill the tasks that came with the victory. God gives us the victory, so that we can walk in it, and not be weary.Again, I waited upon the Lord during this four-year test by continuing in reading and studying His Word, praying with fasting, staying in church, giving financially and personally to the Lord's work—in short, I was obedient to the leading of the Holy Spirit. And, yes, I prayed for my enemies.While we are waiting on him, he will strengthen us, and when the test is finally over, we will see what he has been doing in the background. If you don't see it in this life, maybe He will reveal it to you in the next life—but truthfully, I don't think you will care when you get to heaven.So, wait on the Lord for He shall renew your strength, and you shall mount up with wings as an eagle, you shall run and not be weary, and you shall walk and not faint.If you want to contact us or comment on this podcast, please visit our website and select www.cgmissions.com/podcasts, where all episodes are available by category in series format.
