89. Friday Morning Prayer | Isaiah 53:2-6

Slow down. Step into the Spirit’s Rhythm.


A new day is beginning. God invites you into his presence. God invites you to give your day to him. God invites you to give your life to him.  Join your brothers and sisters in Christ in prayer.


Isaiah 53:2-6

He grew up before him like a tender shoot,

    and like a root out of dry ground.

He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him,

    nothing in his appearance that we should desire him.

He was despised and rejected by mankind,

    a man of suffering, and familiar with pain.

Like one from whom people hide their faces

    he was despised, and we held him in low esteem.

Surely he took up our pain

    and bore our suffering,

yet we considered him punished by God,

    stricken by him, and afflicted.

But he was pierced for our transgressions,

    he was crushed for our iniquities;

the punishment that brought us peace was on him,

    and by his wounds we are healed.

We all, like sheep, have gone astray,

    each of us has turned to our own way;

and the Lord has laid on him

    the iniquity of us all.
