Scripture Isaiah 65:24-25 - New International Version (NIV) 24 Before they call I will answer;     while they are still speaking I will hear. 25 The wolf and the lamb will feed together,     and the lion will eat straw like the ox,     and dust will be the serpent’s food. They will neither harm nor destroy     on all my holy mountain,” says the Lord

Prayer May God add a blessing to the word that we will study. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Context God answers a prayer from a previous chapter (Isaiah 63:15- 64:12). People of Jerusalem felt abandoned by God They want God to intercede again Prayer in new Jerusalem would be simultaneous with answer (Ellicott’s commentary) New heaven and earth
