🌿 Day 10 — Friday, November 14 🧡
🕊️ The Peace That Sings 🍁
📖 Full NKJV Scripture Reading 🌿
Isaiah 12:1–6 (NKJV)
1 And in that day you will say: “O Lord, I will praise You; though You were angry with me, Your anger is turned away, and You comfort me.
2 Behold, God is my salvation, I will trust and not be afraid; for YAH, the Lord, is my strength and song; He also has become my salvation.”
3 Therefore with joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation.
4 And in that day you will say: “Praise the Lord, call upon His name; declare His deeds among the peoples, make mention that His name is exalted.
5 Sing to the Lord, for He has done excellent things; this is known in all the earth.
6 Cry out and shout, O inhabitant of Zion, for great is the Holy One of Israel in your midst!” 🍁
🕰️ Historical and Cultural Background 🌻
Isaiah’s song closes the first section of his prophecy — a hymn of salvation rising from judgment. In ancient Israel, drawing water symbolized receiving life and cleansing from God. Here, it becomes joy itself: the saved heart drawing peace from the depths of divine mercy. The prophet’s vision is not quiet relief, but singing redemption — gratitude breaking into worship. 🌿🎶
🗝️ Key Word Study 🍁
“Salvation” (יְשׁוּעָה — yeshuah, H3444): deliverance, victory, safety; also the root of the name Yeshua (Jesus).
“Joy” (שָׂשׂוֹן — sason, H8342): gladness expressed outwardly — rejoicing that flows from within.
“Wells” (מַעְיָן — maʿyan, H4599): springs or fountains; continual sources of life.
✨ From yeshuah to sason to maʿyan — salvation, joy, and abundance — the Hebrew flow forms a song of peace fulfilled.
