Isaiah Chapter 1: A Wake up call

1:17 ‘Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow.’

#JourneyIsaiah

The very first chapter of Isaiah is a call to repentance. God is fed up with our religiosity, our smugness, our callousness. Just look around us now and see who is beside us in our own families, our own communities, our own places of living and working.


The plea is ‘Hear’, ‘Listen’ (v2 ‘Hear me, you heavens! Listen, earth!’) and turn away from evil this very day.
