Isaiah 31 · Grade 3

As Birds Hovering

Name Date

Read the Story

Some people went "down to Egypt for help." They trusted in horses and chariots, "but they don't look to the Holy One of Israel."

"Now the Egyptians are men, and not God." Their horses were only flesh. But God is strong and wise. "As birds hovering, so Yahweh of Armies will protect Jerusalem."

God said, "Return to him from whom you have deeply revolted, children of Israel." They would throw away their idols. God would save Jerusalem.

Memory Verse

As birds hovering, so Yahweh of Armies will protect Jerusalem. He will protect and deliver it. He will pass over and preserve it.”

Isaiah 31:5 (WEB)

For families: talk about these together.

  • The people would turn back to the God they had left. How can you come back to God after you mess up?
  • God is like a lion that is not scared of shouting shepherds. How can you be brave when others try to scare you?
