Day 173: God Declares Who He Is and That His Purpose Stands

Today we read Isaiah 44-46 and Ezekiel 6-7. In this story, God is making clear, turn to me (Yahweh), listen to me, remember me. I (Yahweh) am God, there is no other. There is none like me. In the Lord alone is deliverance and strength. God says I have made you. I will carry you. I will sustain you (even in your old age). I will rescue you. He brings His righteousness near, even though we are far away from His righteousness and are stubborn-hearted. There is this sense of pursuit and urgency. In grace, in judgement, through it all God is working His plan, His promises and we will know He is Lord, through it all.
