Advent Devotions from Isaiah 40-55

Matt Searles


Under dark skies in Jerusalem, an old man called Simeon is waiting. He lives in a land of shadow, but he longs for Isaiah’s age-old prophecies to be fulfilled: promises of hope, of salvation, of a suffering servant, and ultimately of God himself come to dwell with his people. Then, one day, he holds a baby in his arms, and knows he may depart in peace. In Jesus, all these promises are being fulfilled.

These 25 short devotions will take you through Isaiah 40-55, with a reading, a short reflection, questions for meditation, and suggestions for prayer. Join with Simeon this advent in meditating on Isaiah’s ‘book of comfort’, and have your hearts lifted as you behold our king in his beauty.

After a number of years as a church pastor, Matt Searles has spent the past 10 years in theological training, most recently as head of Biblical Studies at a Bible College. His doctorate is in Biblical Theology, and he loves helping Christians get to know the storyline of the Bible, so as to know Christ and his salvation better.

He has written many books of devotions on the Psalms, Isaiah and Matthew’s Gospel and is also a songwriter, including recording six albums of Psalms set to music. He lives with his family in Cumbria. Matt is passionate about helping people engage with God’s word, so that they may delight in Christ more.

Brings Isaiah to life

I was gifted this book and started before advent! Some of my favourite verses are in Isaiah 40 but I will be honest that I don’t often dip into the surrounding verses. However, Matt Searles strikes a great balance between explaining the content, the context of when it was written and what was happening at the time but also pointing to Christ. He seeks to bring comfort and joy and it has certainly warmed my heart.
