Reveling in Redemption

Isaiah 59

Sermon Notes:

1) The LORD Can Save … Can’t He? | 1

2) Sin Can Separate | 2-8

3) Truth Has Stumbled | 9-15

4) The LORD Saw and … | 15-21

Reflection questions:

1. Is it wrong to ask God questions when His promises haven’t seemed to come true yet? Compare Isaiah 59:1 (and 58:3) and Psalm 13.

2. Read Isaiah 58:2-8. What are some of the negative effects of sin, in addition to separation from God?

3. Is it ever appropriate to pray for the sins of others, in addition to your own? Read Isaiah 59:9-13.

4. Read Exodus 2:23-25 – What did God see? What did God know or remember? Compare to Isaiah 59:15ff.
