Podcasts about Isaiah 58

In Mission and the Fraser Valley, many vulnerable young people — facing homelessness, addiction, mental health struggles, and aging out of the foster system — actually choose to sleep on the streets rather than in shelters with adults. The need for a safe, youth-specific space is real and urgent.MY House was born when a local team took an abandoned building and turned it into exactly that: a nurturing home. Open since September 2015, it serves young people aged 14–24, welcoming 10 to 28 visitors every single day. It's not just a drop-in — it's a place where youth build life skills, pursue employment, practice relationship skills, and access peer support for recovery. At its heart is a simple but powerful idea: every young person needs at least one trusted adult in their corner.The invitation to love our neighbours is straightforward — show up. Whether supporting Mission Youth House through cooking a meal, doing yard work, giving monthly, or simply spreading awareness, or showing up personally in the life of a youth who is struggling, there are real, tangible ways to be the hands and feet of Jesus to the youth in your neighbourhood.

When it comes to humanitarian aid or assistance, or to social justice work, does the Bible put the responsibility on the church as an organization?  Or does it put the responsibility on church members as individuals or families?   Let's see what we can discover from scripture.Isaiah 58:6-7 KJVIs not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh?Related Podcasts:— Standing Up Against the WrongRelated Podcasts (at TrueWisdom):— Don't Wait to Stand Up— Caring for Who God Cares ForText UsSupport the showSend questions or comments to: BibleQuestions@ASBzone.comThe Key Principles of Effective Bible Study is a resource which outlines core concepts shown in the Scriptures that will help you to better understand many Biblical themes and doctrines.  We have an extended, 24-part podcast series on these principles, and a condensed, 9-part series called God's Precious Word, that is based on the same resource.We also recommend that you check out the True Wisdom podcast which I co-host with Robert Baker -- a different format for Bible Study.Finally, check out these awesome Bible Maps!We pray that all of these resources will be very helpful to you in your Bible Studies.

God calls us in His word to delight in Him and to seek Him alone. Isaiah reminds us of the danger of false, performative religion. We are always to choose God over our own desires and instead be “Delighting in the Lord” (Isaiah 58:1-14).

Episode Title: Do you want to delight in God more?Episode Description:In Isaiah 58:13–14, God makes an incredible promise: that His people will delight in Him, be lifted up in their spiritual lives, and be deeply satisfied in His provision. But this promise doesn't stand alone—it comes with a path.In this sermon, we explore what it means to truly honor the Lord's Day. What does it look like to stop trampling it? How can we learn to delight in it rather than endure it? And how does setting apart one day in seven actually lead us into deeper joy in God?Far from being a burden, the Sabbath is a gift—a weekly invitation to rest, worship, and communion with God. And ultimately, it points us to Jesus Christ, the Lord of the Sabbath, in whom true rest and lasting delight are found.Key Passage:Isaiah 58:13-14Sermon Outline:The Promise: Delight, elevation, and satisfaction in God (Isaiah 58:14)The Problem: Trampling the Lord's DayThe Invitation: Delighting in the Lord's DayThe Practice: Honoring the Lord's Day in everyday lifeMain Takeaway:If you want to delight in God, learn to delight in the day He has set apart for Himself.Application Questions:In what ways might you be treating the Lord's Day like any other day?Do you view Sunday more as a burden or a gift—and why?What would it look like to structure your day around worship, rest, and fellowship?How does Jesus, the Lord of the Sabbath, reshape the way you think about rest?

Isaiah 58:6-8New Living Translation6 “No, this is the kind of fasting I want:Free those who are wrongly imprisoned;    lighten the burden of those who work for you.Let the oppressed go free,    and remove the chains that bind people.7 Share your food with the hungry,    and give shelter to the homeless.Give clothes to those who need them,    and do not hide from relatives who need your help.8 “Then your salvation will come like the dawn,    and your wounds will quickly heal.Your godliness will lead you forward,    and the glory of the Lord will protect you from behind.Music: "Rest in the Shadow" by Julian & Melissa Wiggins,Used with permission.

We can only rest when we enter into the mission of God. What is the mission of God? Isaiah 58 describes it as a fast that looses bonds of wickedness and frees the oppressed. And sharing bread with the hungry and bringing the homeless/poor into your house. Jesus says what you have done to the least of these you have done unto me. We pray you are encouraged by this sermon from Isaiah 58 to live out the mission of God in your own lives!

What if we've lost something that our soul actually needs? Fasting is one of the most forgotten practices, and maybe the most understood. Drawing mostly from Isaiah 58, this sermon unpacks the ancient practice of fasting: what it is, why many have largely abandoned it, and why it keeps showing up in the lives of people who actually want to change. This isn't about performance or behavior modification. It's about something deeper -- what's really driving our desires, what's keeping you stuck, and how God meets you in it. Together, we'll wrestle with questions like:Why does fasting feel so hard -- and why might that matter? What does it actually do in us, not just for us? And what if fasting isn't just about you.....but about others? Whether you're spiritually curious, stuck, or longing for something more real with God, this message invites you into a practice that has shaped followers of Jesus for centuries -- and still has the power to change lives today.

In this sermon we look at three scriptures passages in order to explore the light of God that has been revealed in Jesus. May we encounter the crucified Christ raised from the dead in these words.

Today’s Bible Verse: “If you do away with the yoke of oppression, with the pointing finger and malicious talk, and if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed, then your light will rise in the darkness, and your night will become like the noonday” — Isaiah 58:9–10 Isaiah 58:9–10 reveals a powerful promise: God responds when His people live with compassion. This passage reminds us that faith is not only about devotion, but about action—showing up for others in tangible, loving ways. Want to listen without ads?

Sure! Here is the complete description, ready for you to copy and paste:Podcast Episode TitleMidday Bible Study: Isaiah 58:1–14 | From the Hypocrisy of Religion to the Hope of RelationshipEpisode DescriptionAre we just going through the motions, or are we truly seeking the heart of God? In this power-packed midday study, Pastor J dives deep into Isaiah 58, a chapter that serves as a divine "wake-up call" for every believer.We often confuse religious activity—like fasting and ritual—with true righteousness. But God is looking for more than just a bowed head; He is looking for a broken heart that leads to a transformed life.In this episode, we explore: * The Mask of Religion: Identifying the "form of godliness" that lacks real power. * The Fast God Chooses: Understanding how true worship is tied to justice, compassion, and breaking the chains of the oppressed. * The Promise of Restoration: How transitioning from "Religion" to "Relationship" unlocks the promise of being a "watered garden" and a "repairer of the breach."If you've been feeling spiritually dry or wondering why your prayers aren't hitting the mark, this study is for you. It's time to move past the outward show and step into the authentic, life-changing hope found in a genuine relationship with the Father.

This week, we had a special guest speaker, Carl Gormley, our missionary to the Philippines. We're excited for what God is doing through the Gormley family. Carl's sermon was from Isaiah 58, "The Light of God."

Gain the upper hand in your spiritual walk this year. David Antwi teaches on the 'priesthood of all believers,' encouraging you to take personal responsibility for your spiritual growth. Learn why fasting is not about forcing God's hand, but about preparing yourself to receive the answers He already has for you.

23 Isaiah 58-60; 19 Psalms 12-15; 44 Acts 16

In this message from our From Ruin to Redemption: The Gospel According to Isaiah series, Pastor Dave Hentschel walks through Isaiah 58:1–14, confronting the danger of empty religion and calling God's people back to the kind of worship that reflects His heart for righteousness, justice, mercy, and peace. Isaiah exposes the worship God rejects—religious activity divorced from love for neighbor—and reveals the worship God desires: lives marked by compassion, integrity, generosity, and the pursuit of restoration in both society and the home. Through Scripture and a powerful closing drama that brings Truth, Mercy, Justice, and Peace into conversation, this message points us to reconciliation as the meeting place of God's character—and ultimately to Jesus Christ, who perfectly fulfills what Isaiah calls us to become.In the end, Isaiah 58 reminds us that God restores what we have ruined by drawing us out of hollow religion and into lives shaped by justice, mercy, and reconciliation through Christ.

Are we so focused on worship that we've forgotten justice? Jeffrey O. Brown challenges believers to embrace true worship—not just prayer and fasting, but active compassion for the oppressed, the marginalized, and the forgotten.

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.
