Shelter from the Wind

Gale force winds can come at any time and in any season. Sometimes storm clouds warn of their imminent arrival, but other times you wake up surprised by the strong gusts that have pushed in under the cover of darkness.

But what about when the storms aren’t outside your window, but inside your life? Where should you turn?

One place to find the answer is in the book of Isaiah, one of Jill’s favorite books in the Bible. In this series, Jill teaches about the character of God by sharing how He cared for the Israelites and Isaiah, but she also shares practical stories from her many years of ministry to illustrate God’s promise to shelter us when things get difficult.

Relationships need nurturing, and that takes time and effort. It’s the same with God. You may have been introduced to Him, and even initiated a relationship with Him, but how well do you really know Him? 

Scripture: Isaiah 1

We belong to God because He created us. He loves us, and it pains Him when we when we go after other lovers. He longs for us to turn from our worldly ways and run into His arms.

"Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine." Isaiah 43:1

Scripture: Isaiah 5

Imagine opening a door to heaven and seeing God on His glorious throne. That’s something the prophet Isaiah was blessed to see, and it changed his understanding of God forever!

In this message, Jill Briscoe highlights God’s life-changing character as revealed in Isaiah’s heavenly vision—encouraging you to answer His call in faith and worship.

Scripture: Isaiah 6:1-6:11

In many of the remaining monarchies, the kings and queens are much beloved by their people, but they have very little real power. Sadly, many believers relate to Jesus the same way. They proclaim Jesus to be King of Kings and the Lord of their lives, but they make all the decisions! When we let Christ truly reign, amazing things happen.

Scripture: Isaiah 32

Have you lost your joy? It can be hard when life is swirling around you and beating you down, but true joy is found in praising God for who He is and what He’s doing, even when you can’t see it.

“’To whom will you compare me? Or who is my equal?’ says the Holy One. Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these? He who brings out the starry host one by one and calls forth each of them by name.” Isaiah 40:25-26

Scripture: Isaiah 40, Psalm 137
