Today is October 1st. Welcome to the Daily Audio Vival. I am Brian and it is wonderful

to be here with you today as we end a week while beginning a month. So here we are first

day of the 10th month of the year, 274th day of the year, which means 274 days ago, we began

our long journey, a year long journey, through life together, through the scriptures together,

every single book, every single paragraph, every single sentence, every single word, and

what a journey it has been, what a beautiful journey it has been, and what transformation has

begun to take shape inside of us, and we have one quarter of the year left to go, so we have

plenty out in front of us, but we have plenty that we have covered already, and so it is wonderful

to be here with you today as we begin this brand new month of October, and whether it's a

brand new month or a brand new shiny sparkly week that we are entering into, we pick up where we

left off, and that leads us back out into the territory of the book of Isaiah, which we have been

reading for a bit now, we will actually conclude the book of Isaiah tomorrow, so we are rounding the

corner on this prophetic book, and we will move forward after that obviously, but we still got a

couple of days to spend with Isaiah, and so let's dive in, we have been reading from the good news

translation this week, today Isaiah chapter 62 verse 6, through 65 verse 25

On your walls Jerusalem I have placed centuries, they must never be silent day or night,

they must remind the Lord of his promises and never let him forget them,

they must give him no rest until he restores Jerusalem and makes it a city the whole world praises,

the Lord has made us solemn promise, and by his power he will carry it out,

your grain will no longer be food for your enemies, and foreigners will no longer drink your wine,

but you that planted and harvested the grain will eat the bread and praise the Lord,

you that tended and gathered the grapes will drink the wine in the courts of my temple,
