Isaiah 55:6-11

6 Seek the Lord while he may be found;
call on him while he is near.
7 Let the wicked forsake their ways
and the unrighteous their thoughts.
Let them turn to the Lord, and he will have mercy on them,
and to our God, for he will freely pardon.

8 “For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,”
declares the Lord.
9 “As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.
10 As the rain and the snow
come down from heaven,
and do not return to it
without watering the earth
and making it bud and flourish,
so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater,
11 so is my word that goes out from my mouth:
It will not return to me empty,
but will accomplish what I desire
and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.

Read the above scripture section of God’s Word (Isaiah 55:6-11) multiple times, looking through a different “lens” of invitation from Jesus each time:

1) Come and hear
2) Come and learn from Me
3) Come and follow Me

For instance, considering the ways of God, how might “come and hear God’s ways” be different from “come and learn God’s ways from Me” and “come and follow Me regarding God’s ways”?

Prayer

: Spirit of God, teach me to forsake evil ways and to turn to God. Teach me how to come to Jesus and learn from Him every day – day and night. In Jesus’ name I pray this. Amen.
