Scripture reveals Isaiah as a prophet called to speak God's judgment and comfort to His people, pointing constantly toward the coming Messiah.
Scripture on Isaiha
Isaiah 1:1
Old Testament
"The vision of Isaiah son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem during the reigns of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah, kings of Judah."
Isaiah 6:8
Old Testament
"Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, 'Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?' And I said, 'Here am I. Send me!'"
Isaiah 53:5-6
Old Testament
"But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed. We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all."
Isaiah 40:28-31
Old Testament
"Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint."
The Bottom Line
Isaiah shows us a God who calls reluctant servants, judges sin without apology, and promises a Savior who will carry our brokenness so we don't have to.

Father, open my eyes to see Jesus in Isaiah's words — the One who bore what I deserved so I could be made clean. I confess that I, like those Isaiah spoke to, have wandered from You, choosing my own way. Thank You that You didn't leave us without hope. Help me believe that the wounds of Jesus are my healing. Give me courage like Isaiah's to say 'Here am I, send me' — to live for Your purposes, not my own. In Jesus' name, Amen.
