FALL RIVER COUNTY - ISAIAH

66 Books of the Bible Release to 66 Counties of South Dakota
 
 Our 23rd county to pray for in South Dakota is Fall River County, with the city of Hot Springs being the county seat.  We release the book of Isaiah to Fall River County.  The book of Isaiah has 66 chapters, as a "minature" Bible.  The first 39 chapters - the number of the Old Testament books - emphasizes judgment, while the second division has 27 chapters - the number of the New Testament books - and stresses grace.  Isaiah means "the salvation of Jehovah."  His name is a summary of the book.  He is called the evangelical prophet because he presents Jesus and the plan of redemption more completely than any other prophet. 

We learn much about Jesus Christ throughout Isaiah:  His virgin birth (7:14, 9:6), the King who reigns in righteousness (32:1), the great Shepherd (40:11), the servant (42:1), the man of sorrows bearing our sins (53:3,7), the deliverer to set the captives free (61:1), the 7-fold Spirit of God (11:1,2) and more.

Father in the mighty name of Jesus, we release the 66 chapters of Isaiah on this 66 Book of the Bible Release to the 66 Counties in South Dakota.  That the fullness of this book with Your clear message of redemption be known all across Fall River County. That the gift of evangelism would flourish in the hearts of your people in Fall River, to love and search out those in need of You as they're great Shepherd.  And that your government of peace would come in fullness to the people and land of Fall River. Through the Blood and the Light of Jesus Christ, we release the 7-fold Spirit of God, "the spirit of the Lord, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord" to Fall River County.  Let true freedom "in Christ", be heard throughout  Fall River County.


FYI:   I wanted to share that just one day prior when teams across South Dakota had just begun to pray on site in the county seats of the counties assigned to them, my husband and I were at a family celebration of our brother and sister-in-law's 40th Anniversary.  There we were that very day, celebrating in Hot Springs in Fall River County And during the program, a good friend sang the song, "He Is", by Aaron &Jeffrey.  This song covers every one of the 66 books of the Bible.  There we were, in the very county seat of Hot Springs, in the county of Fall River, where the book of Isaiah with 66 chapters was assigned in the 66 Books of the Bible Release to all 66 Counties in South Dakota.  We also found out that our parents were celebrating their 66th year of marriage together!  Again, "You just can't make this stuff up!"
