Isaiah 52:4-10
TODAY’S INSIGHT
In the divine soliloquy in Isaiah 52:4-10, God referenced the past and present slaveries of His chosen people. They were once slaves in Egypt, and the people in the Northern Kingdom of Israel were enslaved by Assyrians (v. 4). Those in Judah too would soon be enslaved by the Babylonians (39:6-7). But God promised that in due time He’d bring them back from foreign bondage and restore Jerusalem (11:11; 54:11-15). Messengers would be sent to proclaim this good news of redemption and deliverance (52:7-10). “When the Lord returns to Zion, . . . all the ends of the earth will see the salvation of our God” (vv. 8, 10).
We were all once slaves to sin, but Jesus sets free those who trust in Him (Romans 6:16-18). Paul cites Isaiah 52:7 in Romans 10:15 to encourage believers in Christ to proclaim the good news of salvation: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!” (Insight By: K.T. Sim)
Our Daily Bread Devotional – 21st December 2025 | MESSAGE
The man was harvesting onions when we prayerfully approached him during the home visits we were conducting on our mission trip in Ecuador. In broken Spanish, I told him my friends and I would like to briefly speak to him about the Bible. He paused to listen as we shared our testimonies with him. Then one of my teammates started reading Scripture aloud in English. What a sacred moment it was for all to hear the good news read on the side of the Andes mountains as the man read along in Spanish with the booklet we had given him! We talked with him and his family who’d been working off in the distance, prayed for them, and continued to the next house.
As we walked along the mountainside reading Scripture and talking to people about Christ, I thought of Jesus and His disciples walking along the hills and valleys of Israel during His earthly ministry.
Isaiah 52:7 says, “How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation.” The prophet was referring to the time when God’s people would return to their homeland after years in exile, but it still applies to us today whenever we share the good news of Jesus with others.
Our opportunities may not be in the spectacular Andes, but wherever God has placed us, the Holy Spirit can help us share the message of salvation with those He puts in our path. (Message By: Nancy Gavilanes)
Reflect & Pray
Who shared the gospel with you? Who can you share your faith with?
Dear God, please give me courage to tell others about Jesus.
