Isaiah 40:28-31  

Today we continue our journey through Isaiah 40, a passage prophetically addressed to those who would find themselves defeated and exiled in Babylon. The verses above are among the most familiar in the book of Isaiah and we can read or quote them quite quickly and glibly without really focusing on what it means to wait hopefully on God. We’ll look today at God’s promise to give us strength whether we’re “soaring, running or walking.”
