December 25, 2018: Day 24 – Isaiah 20

Merry Christmas!!  I could have probably chosen a better chapter to reflect the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ, but time marches on and we use the verses that are before us.  Here we find Isaiah the prophet who goes around naked, completely naked, for three years to prove a point.  The point that he is proving is that Egypt and Ethiopia will be overcome and their people will be driven out naked and barefoot from their countries for three years.  It is quite an extreme example, and it is one that prophets often showed the messages of the Lord in extreme actions.  

I’m grateful that the Lord has not asked me to do something so extreme in order to prove a point about His actions.
