Podcasts about Isaiah 58

What does your approach to the Sabbath reveal about your faith? This 119 Audio Sermon issues a bold and loving challenge: are you obeying Yahweh fully, or negotiating obedience for convenience? The Sabbath is not just a rest day—it is a test of the heart. In this powerful message, we examine the heart behind Sabbath observance. Many believers look for loopholes, but Scripture reveals that the Sabbath exposes our faith, trust, and loyalty to Yahweh. Compromising Sabbath obedience is not a small issue—it reveals whether we serve Yahweh or our own comfort. This is not a call to legalism, but to wholehearted faithfulness. From Exodus to Isaiah, and from Daniel to the teachings of Yeshua, we are reminded that true obedience often comes at a cost—but disobedience costs far more. Will you pass the test? Spiritual Takeaway -  The Sabbath is more than a command—it is a test of whether we trust Yahweh above all else.

Fasting is one of the more mysterious aspects of walking with God. Yet God gives us clear instructions about what a true fast looks like, and it's probably not what we'd expect. Today we look at Isaiah 58 which unpacks God's clear purposes for this important aspect of spiritual life. Join us! DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS: 1.    When you think of the spiritual discipline of fasting, what comes to mind? Have you ever fasted? If so, why? What for? How did you do it?  2.    According to verse 1, what is the general subject matter of this message for God's people? What is Isaiah to declare to the people?  3.    The podcast warned that verse 2 is tricky to understand unless we notice that word “as”. What does the word “as” indicate? Why is this key to understanding why (in verse 3) they are not seeing “results” from their spiritual deeds? 4.    These people were “fasting” but in the wrong way. Why were they fasting in verse 4? Why would that be a problem? How do people still fast in these ways today?  5.    What is the right way to “fast” in verses 5-7? Why is this true fasting? Given what you know about fasting, is this a surprise? In light of these teachings, would you say that fasting is to seek God to align your will with these pursuits? Why or why not?  6.    What promises does the Lord give in verses 9-11? How would you describe or characterize these blessings? Why does proper fasting ensure these kinds of blessings?  7.    In verse 12, what kind of society will this kind of fasting produce? How do you think “fasting” factors into this kind of reform?  8.    Looking over verse 13, what kind of attitude ought they to have for the sabbath? What does this kind of attitude demonstrate? How is this different from the predominant attitude they had towards the sabbath? When they have these kinds of attitudes, what kinds of blessings will they receive in verse 14?  9.    How has this chapter changed your understanding of fasting? What is its purpose? What does it accomplish?  10.    Think over the next few weeks in your life. Is there a time when you can apply these principles to your own life and “fast” in the way that we see in Isaiah 58?

Janis prays the Invocation and reads Scripture

The world teaches us to get, whereas Jesus taught us to give. True life isn't found until we "lose" our life for Jesus. While this might in some cases refer to physical death, for most of us, it is metaphorical.  So, what might it look like to lose your life for Jesus before finding true life?Join me for Today's Daily Word & Prayer to learn more.Scripture Used in Today's MessageMatthew 16:25Isaiah 58:10-12If you've not read my book, Takin' it to Their Turf. request a copy on my website, www.CampusAmerica.com.You'll be inspired, encouraged, and learn plenty about evangelism and spiritual warfare through the 70+ stories I share of my campus evangelism experiences.We send a copy to anyone who donates to our ministry, but if you can't do so, simply request a copy by sending us an email. Who do you know that needs to hear today's message? Go ahead and forward this to them, along with a prayer that God will use it in their life.To find Tom on Instagram, Facebook, TiKTok, and elsewhere, go to linktr.ee/tomthepreacher To support Tom Short Campus Ministries, click herehttps://www.tomthepreacher.com/support************ Do you want to have all your sins forgiven and know God personally? *********Check out my video "The Bridge Diagram" at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0Kjwrlind8&t=1sCheck out my website, www.TomthePreacher.com, to learn more about my ministry and sign up for my daily email.

Pastor Luke preached about how delighting in the Lord is the point of practicing Sabbath rest. He said in practicing Sabbath rest we delight in God's world, God's Word, and God's work. The main idea was, "Sabbath without delight misses God's heart."

Welcome to Resurrection Church. Whatever your age or life story, you are welcome here. Resurrection seeks to be a home for the prodigal, an authentic people — humble, generous, and unified.

Send me a Text Message!You know I look around in central PA, and it's not just here, I hear of stirrings in other places as well. I think Jesus is getting ready to bring his church into a new season; a season of seeing His Kingdom come in new ways; a season of making a serious difference in the world around us. It won't happen without prayer and breakthrough prayer is almost always connected to fasting. But Isaiah 58 reminds us that fasting and prayer isn't enough. In fact, Isaiah reminds us that while we won't make a difference if we don't pray, our prayers won't even be heard if we don't care about the people around us. But if we care, then a new day will come and you can barely imagine a life like the one Isaiah 58 says is coming!

Send me a Text Message!Here is a good Lent question, "Does God really care?" Do we matter to God? I think many of us today struggle to believe that God is father who loves to bless his kids. It's the issue of trust right? Can I trust Jesus? Can I trust God? Or do I need something to hold over him, so that he will respond to me? Do my prayers matter to God? I think one of the reasons we pray is because we care. Right? I mean how many of us spend a lot of time praying for stuff we don't care about? But I think the fact that I care will not sustain my prayers. I need to know that He cares. Because if God doesn't care, prayer doesn't matter. Right? So we ask the question in this episode, "Does God really care?" And if he does, what does he care about?

''Why have we fasted, and you see it not? Why have we humbled ourselves, and you take no knowledge of it?" Behold, in the day of your fast you seek your own pleasure, and oppress all your workers. - Isaiah 58:3

Joel Meeker discusses Isaiah 58:13-14—“If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath, from doing your pleasure on My holy day, and call the Sabbath a delight, the holy day of the LORD honorable, and shall honor Him, not doing your own ways, nor finding your own pleasure, nor speaking your own words, then you shall delight yourself in the LORD; and I will cause you to ride on the high hills of the earth, and feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father. The mouth of the LORD has spoken.”

In this episode of One Voice Makes a Difference, I am going to dive into the transformative power of fasting, focusing on the principles laid out in Isaiah 58. Fasting is more than abstaining from food—it's about aligning your heart with the will of the Father and seeing heaven move here on earth. I share  a deeply personal and miraculous story from my 20's when I embarked on a 7-day fast, desperately seeking God's intervention to have a baby. This testimony is one of faith, perseverance, and the undeniable hand of God at work. Through this story, I want to encourage you to embrace fasting as a powerful spiritual practice that not only brings breakthrough's but also shifts your hearts into alignment with God's purpose. The episode concludes with a heartfelt and powerful prayer, inviting heaven's will to manifest on earth and encouraging listeners to step into deeper alignment with the heart of the Father. Tune in to hear:    •   What Isaiah 58 teaches about fasting and its spiritual significance.    •   Janet's miraculous testimony of fasting and how God responded to her faith.    •   A prayer of surrender, alignment, and calling heaven to earth in your own life. This episode will encourage and equip you to embrace fasting as a tool for spiritual growth and a pathway to miracles.

Fr. Mike reflects on some of the ways that people turn away from God, including: worshipping idols, fasting for selfish reasons, and not honoring the sabbath. He also highlights the passage from Ezekiel 18 that tells us that each person will be judged by their own actions, and not by those of their parents or children. The readings are Isaiah 57-58, Ezekiel 17-18, and Proverbs 13:5-8. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.
