Isaiah 59: Our sin separates us without Jesus

Behold, the Lord's hand is not shortened, that it cannot save,

or his ear dull, that it cannot hear;

but your iniquities have made a separation

between you and your God,

and your sins have hidden his face from you

so that he does not hear.

For your hands are defiled with blood

and your fingers with iniquity;

your lips have spoken lies;

your tongue mutters wickedness.

No one enters suit justly;

no one goes to law honestly;

they rely on empty pleas, they speak lies,

they conceive mischief and give birth to iniquity.

Truth is lacking,

and he who departs from evil makes himself a prey.

The Lord saw it, and it displeased him

that there was no justice.

He saw that there was no man,

and wondered that there was no one to intercede;

then his own arm brought him salvation,

and his righteousness upheld him.

"And a Redeemer will come to Zion,

to those in Jacob who turn from transgression," declares the Lord.
"And as for me, this is my covenant with them," says the Lord: "My Spirit that is upon you, and my words that I have put in your mouth, shall not depart out of your mouth, or out of the mouth of your offspring, or out of the mouth of your children's offspring," says the Lord, "from this time forth and forevermore."
(Isaiah 59:1-4, 15, 16, 20, 21 ESV)

God send your Spirit to convict me of my sin. Please Lord reveal the truth of the wrath and death that result from sin. How we fail to seek justice and separate ourselves from you God. But I love you lord for you did not let us stay far off but sent Jesus your son our redeemer to bridge the chasm and being us near. You forgive us and love is.
Thank you Lord Jesus for your amazing gift for me a sinner and for the world full of those who are also sinners and need a savior.
Amen
