The Scripture readings are Isaiah 40:1-8; 1 Corinthians 4:1-5; and Matthew 11:2-10, 11.God knows the full debt of your sin down to the last penny. And when Jesus pours out His forgiveness, mercy, and salvation on you, it is in double measure of your debt.

It is time this very minute to pray and seek God. Time to set our timers and pray for the minute. This podcast encourages us to stop for a minute and, now, in the presence of our Heavenly Father—with praise and prayer—worship Him in Jesus' name and in the power of the Holy Spirit. ———— *We do not own the rights to music played on this podcast.

"Comfort, comfort my people, says your God." With these words, Isaiah delivers a beautiful proclamation of hope to a people in exile. In part 5 of a special 12-part series connecting Old Testament prophecy to New Testament fulfillment, we encounter the "Voice" crying in the wilderness. This Voice is St. John the Baptist, the herald who prepares the way for the Lord. He calls sinners to repentance, pointing to the truth that while all flesh is like grass that withers and fades, the Word of our God stands forever, and the Messiah has come.  The Rev. Robert Smith, pastor emeritus in Ft. Wayne, IN, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Isaiah 40:1–11  This Advent series begins by covering the last Old Testament prophet, Malachi, and then spends twelve episodes alternating between Old Testament prophecy and New Testament fulfillment, tracing God's promises from Isaiah to the birth of Christ. The series explores Emmanuel's promise, the Davidic King, John the Baptist as forerunner, and reaches its climax with the Nativity. The final episodes examine the Suffering Servant, the shadow of the cross in Christ's infancy, Isaiah's Messianic mission statement, and John's declaration that "the Word became flesh."  Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.

It Doesn't Get Any Better Than That Isaiah 40:28-31 28Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. 29He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. 30Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; 31but 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.

Kevin McKay preaches "The Voice of Comfort" from Isaiah 40:1-9, in this Sunday morning gathering of Grace Harbor Church.

There is no one like the Lord; no one can compare to Him. The Lord needs no counsel or advice. The nations are nothing before Him. When we realize how great the Lord is, all of our problems and difficulties are put into perspective. We are called to look to “The God of All Comfort: God the Creator” (Isaiah 40:12-26).

Today’s Bible Verse“A voice of one calling: ‘In the wilderness prepare the way for the Lord; make straight in the desert a highway for our God.’” — Isaiah 40:3 Isaiah 40:3 is a prophetic announcement about preparing for God’s arrival—a spiritual construction project long before orange cones made it cool. Spoken originally to bring hope and readiness, it uses the powerful metaphor of clearing a path through a wilderness, symbolizing removing obstacles in our hearts so God’s purposes move forward without speed bumps.

Drawing from Isaiah 40, he delves into how believers can find renewed strength and hope amidst life's challenges. Discover the power of praise and the importance of trusting in God's promises to transform a weary soul. The CAUSES of a Weary Soul: (1) WICKEDNESS (Psalm 38:4-6), (2) the WORLD, and (3) WORK. The CURE for a weary soul is the strength of the Lord (Isaiah 40:29-31, John 16:33). The immediate CURE for a weary soul is PRAISE (Psalm 34:1-6, 100:4, Matthew 6:9, Isaiah 61:3, Philippians 3:1, 4:4). We can PRAISE because: (1) GOD IS WITH US (Isaiah 41:10, 43:2), and (2) GOD IS WORKING (John 5:17), and (3) GOD WILL WIN.

In this sermon "Comfort in Sorrow," Pastor Patrick Austin begins a new Advent series exploring passages in Isaiah that prepare our hearts to celebrate Christ's coming. Focusing on Isaiah 40:1-11, Pastor Austin observes that while the Christmas season offers temporary comforts through traditions and material things, we're all searching for something deeper—a comfort that truly saves and soothes our weary souls. The sermon reveals that just as the Israelites in Babylonian exile needed God's comfort, we too need the same message: "Comfort, comfort my people, says your God" (Isaiah 40:1). Pastor Austin explains how this passage points to Christ in three ways: the promise of comfort (God's forgiveness and love), the person of comfort (Jesus as the fulfillment of Isaiah's prophecy), and the proclamation of comfort (the good news that Jesus has come and will come again). He concludes with practical applications: rest in God's promise that He hasn't forgotten us, receive Jesus as the only true source of comfort, and proclaim this message to others who are searching for hope during the Christmas season.   WE'D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU!

Isaiah 40:1-11     Comfort, comfort my people, says your God. 2 Speak tenderly to Jerusalem,     and cry to her that her warfare is ended,     that her iniquity is pardoned, that she has received from the Lord's hand     double for all her sins. 3 A voice cries: "In the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord;     make straight in the desert a highway for our God. 4 Every valley shall be lifted up,     and every mountain and hill be made low; the uneven ground shall become level,     and the rough places a plain. 5 And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed,     and all flesh shall see it together,     for the mouth of the Lord has spoken." 6 A voice says, "Cry!"     And I said, "What shall I cry?" All flesh is grass,     and all its beauty is like the flower of the field. 7 The grass withers, the flower fades     when the breath of the Lord blows on it;     surely the people are grass. 8 The grass withers, the flower fades,     but the word of our God will stand forever. 9 Go on up to a high mountain,     O Zion, herald of good news; lift up your voice with strength,     O Jerusalem, herald of good news;     lift it up, fear not; say to the cities of Judah,     "Behold your God!" 10 Behold, the Lord God comes with might,     and his arm rules for him; behold, his reward is with him,     and his recompense before him. 11 He will tend his flock like a shepherd;     he will gather the lambs in his arms; he will carry them in his bosom,     and gently lead those that are with young.

As we step into the Advent season, this message from Isaiah 40 invites us to slow down and prepare our hearts for Jesus. In a time filled with holiday busyness—meals, travel, gifts, and endless planning—we're reminded that the most important preparation is spiritual. Isaiah's call to “prepare the way of the Lord,” fulfilled in John the Baptist, points us to the first step of true readiness: repentance.In this sermon, we explore God's tender comfort, the unshakable reliability of His Word, and the breathtaking picture of our Savior as both mighty King and gentle Shepherd. Whether you're beginning a relationship with Jesus or returning to a place of honesty and confession, Advent is an invitation to start on the right foot.Come reflect, be encouraged, and draw near to the One who holds His people in His arms and offers forgiveness, hope, and lasting peace.

Isaiah offers immense comfort for his hearers—all wrongs will eventually be set right because of the One to come. But how could this be? As Isaiah speaks these words, Israel is destined for exile and their city will be destroyed because of their own unfaithfulness. Why would God promise such sinful people such a bright future? This week, we will study Isaiah's prophecy and how it can give hope to all of us, especially if we feel like we don't deserve it.

Dain Smith. What Are We Waiting For? Isaiah 40:3-5; 9-11.

But they who wait for 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.

Our hope is in the Lord, who is ever faithful and true, ever able and mighty, ever tender and gracious. This is a word that we all need to hear. Life is hard, and we are all too aware of our sins and shortcomings. We need to hear that there is “The God of All Comfort: God the Redeemer” (Isaiah 40:1-11).

Here in John's gospel, we get a lengthy behind-the-scenes look at the Last Supper. As Jesus eats the Passover meal with his disciples, he knows that the hour of His crucifixion is drawing near. As both Lord and servant, Jesus leads by example and washes the disciples' feet and commands them to love one another. It's revealed that Judas will betray Jesus, and he departs from the other disciples to execute his plan. Jesus reveals the nature of the relationships within the triune Godhead, describing how the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit relate to one another. Finally, Jesus tells his disciples that they should expect to be persecuted by the world.John 12 – 1:10 . John 13 – 9:25 . John 14 – 15:31 . John 15 – 20:44 . Isaiah 40 – 24:47 . :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by Bobby Brown, Katelyn Pridgen, Eric Williamson & the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

What have we not known or heard, and why does it matter? What is the meaning of Isaiah 40:28?

Today’s Bible Verse:"Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God,the Creator of the ends of the earth.He will not grow tired or weary,and his understanding no one can fathom.He gives strength to the wearyand increases the power of the weak." — Isaiah 40:28–29 When we feel like a burden — too inconsistent, too broken, too tired — Isaiah 40 reminds us that God never grows weary of us. His strength doesn’t run out, and His patience doesn’t expire. The One who created the stars also sustains our hearts, meeting us in our weakness with endless compassion. No matter how many times we stumble or doubt, His love remains steady, and His strength is always enough to lift us again. “Want to listen without ads?
