Light for My Path Daily Devotiondevotions3

Bible Reading

There shall come forth a shoot from the stump of Jesse, and a branch from his roots shall bear fruit. And the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord. And his delight shall be in the fear of the Lord. He shall not judge by what his eyes see, or decide disputes by what his ears hear, but with righteousness he shall judge the poor, and decide with equity for the meek of the earth; and he shall strike the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips he shall kill the wicked. Righteousness shall be the belt of his waist, and faithfulness the belt of his loins. (Isaiah 11:1-5 ESV)

Hymn ELH 121:2,4 Behold a Branch Is Growing

Isaiah had foretold It
In words of promise sure,
And Mary’s arms enfold It,
A Virgin meek and pure.
Through God’s eternal will
This Child to her is given
At midnight calm and still.

This Flower, whose fragrance tender,
With sweetness fills the air,
Dispels with glorious splendor
That darkness everywhere.
True Man, yet very God;
From sin and death He saves us
And lightens every load.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank you for fulfilling all of Your promises in sending Your Son, Jesus, to be my Savior. In His name I pray. Amen.
