Episode 28 - The Daughter of Zion, pt 3

Timecodes 0:00 - Intro 0:45 - Series Recap 3:00 - Daughter of Zion Bible Study, part 3 This is now the third and final part of our study of the Daughter of Zion. In part one we saw the Daughter of Zion’s birth through the prophetic words of the prophet Isaiah. Although her past actions were sinful and full of idolatry, she comes to God in repentance and because of that God accepts her and sees her as His precious, pure daughter and he calls her Virgin Daughter Zion. In part two of our study we read about the betrothal of Daughter Zion. The Daughter of Zion has come of age. She is betrothed to a ‘Lord who will take delight in her’. A prophetic word about the coming Messiah, Jesus. But then, almost just as soon as the engagement has been proclaimed, Israel, Daughter Zion once again rebels and sins greatly against God. The bride has ignored her commitment to her future husband and has instead committed adultery repeatedly. Although He is willing to reconcile, the Daughter of Zion is not. She has rejected her husband-to-be. And so God issues her a certificate of divorce, and hands Daughter Zion over for just judgment. Israel is exiled and Jerusalem is destroyed. Zion, the heartbeat of Israel, is lost. The Daughter of Zion is no more. Welcome back to the Outside of Sunday Podcast. This is a podcast for women, a bible study and one-sided conversation to encourage you to get outside of Sunday. Jesus doesn’t live in your church; His Holy Spirit lives in His people, in you! Yes, go to church, but don’t save everything for Sunday. Take your worship outside of Sunday, your bible reading outside of Sunday, your prayer life outside of Sunday. I’m not a pastor or a theologian, I definitely don’t have it all together. But I love the Lord. I am passionate about His word and I want to spend my life bringing as much glory to Him as I possibly can. I hope that this podcast can help you to pursue our Lord, and grow in your faith, outside of Sunday. For more podcast notes go to www.outsideofsunday.com
