Isaiah 33:6 — Monday, September 21, 2026

Isaiah chapter 33 is a prayer and a hope in the middle of Assyria's threat against Jerusalem. Verse 6 declares that wisdom and knowledge will be the stability of its times, and the fear of the Lord will be its treasure. In times of crisis, what sustains a people is not the accumulation of goods but the wisdom that comes from God. The word fear here is not terror but deep reverence, which teaches us to live according to the Lord's will. That fear is described as a treasure, something more valuable than gold. Today, in an unstable world, we are called to invest in the wisdom that stabilizes and the reverence that enriches the soul.
