This day with God will be amazing because we can examine our hopes and dreams and let God take them to a level that we never dreamed of. Reading today Isaiah 60, we are given hope in the darkness with a prophetic vision for a brighter future.

In a world shrouded in spiritual darkness, Isaiah the prophet writes about the pervasive struggles, pain, and despair that many people face. Despite these overwhelming challenges, there is a message of hope—a promise of a Redeemer who will bring light to the world.

The prophet acknowledges the difficult times but urges the people to keep their heads up and continue to look for the light. This light symbolizes hope, faith, and love, which can guide humanity through even the darkest of times.

The world back in the time of this writing searched for solutions to its difficult problems and even today we keep searching. Hope serves as a cheerleader, encouraging diligent efforts to find answers, and faith illuminates the path forward. We can be thankful today that the love Jesus displayed on the cross has given the unexpected ultimate solution to the core issue.

Reading further, the narrative of today’s passage takes us even higher as the prophet speaks of the millennial kingdom. This event will bring a future beyond imagination. Leading to profound personal and societal changes for the better. Among these changes are joyous fellowship, restored beauty, peace on earth, and a radiant, everlasting light.

As we wait patiently for this glorious future to unfold, the prophet encourages us to keep hope alive. By striving now and continuing to look up, we prepare ourselves for the day when a new society, filled with love and light, is revealed. This vision of a new day offers hope and a reminder that, even in the darkest times, a brighter future is always possible with God.

This day with You God, we are thankful for Jesus … our Redeemer whose death on the cross has given us the unexpected ultimate solution to the core issue. He delivers us from the darkness, and we are transformed into a child of the Light. You rescued Your people from captivity, and You recue us from the hand of the enemy. It even gets better God because we know that Jesus will come again to bring a future beyond what can be imagined. We prepare for that day and our joy only gets stronger as we wait on Jesus’ return. Amen.
