A Call to Trust the Lord

In this episode of Arise + Abide, Curtis and Sally explore Isaiah 8:11–22, a powerful passage calling God’s people to resist fear and trust wholly in the Lord. In a time of national panic and looming invasion, Isaiah is instructed not to think like the fearful crowd but to honor the Lord as holy and sovereign. Curtis and Sally reflect on the relevance of this message today, urging listeners to reject fear-driven mindsets and instead embrace faith, reverence, and obedience.

The conversation highlights the danger of seeking guidance from the dead, the spiritually dead, worldly sources and the importance of clinging to God’s word in times of darkness. Even as Isaiah foretells stumbling and judgment, there is a promise shining through: the hope of the coming Messiah. Jesus, the light of the world, calls us out of darkness and into life.

Join us as we discuss the challenge of keeping God holy in our lives, trusting Him above all else, and living with confident hope in His promises.
