SBC Between Sundays

Morning Devotional – December 20 (Scripture: Isaiah 11:1–3a)

Listen Later

Key Truth:

Isaiah’s prophecy promised hope when all seemed lost. From the broken “stump” of Jesse’s family line would come a shoot—a King filled with God’s Spirit, bringing justice, peace, and restoration. This is Jesus, the Messiah, whose birth in Bethlehem began the fulfillment of this promise. Out of brokenness, God brings new life.

Reflection Questions:

  • What do you think the stump of Jesse represents, and what about the shoot or the branch?
  • When have you seen God bring new life out of a situation that seemed hopeless, like a shoot growing from a stump?
  • How can we reflect Jesus’ character in how we lead or serve others?

    • Prayer Prompt:

    Thank God for bringing hope out of brokenness through Jesus. Ask Him to help you reflect Christ’s character in your words and actions.
