The Shoot!

~ Isaiah 11:9

  1. How is the wickedness of people like wildfire on the land (9:18-19)?
  2. What are some examples of unjust laws and oppressive decrees that oppress people today (10:1)?
  3. Jesus was the new shoot that came out of the cut off rebellious stump of Jessie (11:1).  Where have you seen God bring life out of the devastation of sin in your life (Rom. 4:17)?
  4. What will this new shoot do according to 11:2-5?
  5. Because of man’s rebellion to God, all creation knows the effect of  sin.  According to 11:6-9 how far does His reign extend?
  6. Paraphrase chapter 12 as your personal song of praise:

Why was he angry with you?

How has he comforted you?

What has he saved you from?

What do you thank him for?

What is your song?

Articulate your joy!
