Your God will come!

 “Say to those who are fearful-hearted, “Be strong, do not fear! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, With the recompense of God; He will come and save you.” Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, And the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. Then the lame shall leap like a deer, And the tongue of the dumb sing. For waters shall burst forth in the wilderness, And streams in the desert. The parched ground shall become a pool, And the thirsty land springs of water; In the habitation of jackals, where each lay, There shall be grass with reeds and rushes. A highway shall be there, and a road, And it shall be called the Highway of Holiness. The unclean shall not pass over it, But it shall be for others. Whoever walks the road, although a fool, Shall not go astray. No lion shall be there, Nor shall any ravenous beast go up on it; It shall not be found there. But the redeemed shall walk there, And the ransomed of the Lord shall return, And come to Zion with singing, With everlasting joy on their heads. They shall obtain joy and gladness, And sorrow and sighing shall flee away.”

Isaiah 35:4-10 NKJV

 Beautiful words to Israel in that day and a picture for us of what will happen when Jesus comes! A double meaning Word from the Prophet Isaiah.

Bent on backsliding!

 “My people are bent on backsliding from Me. Though they call to the Most High, None at all exalt Him.”

Hosea 11:7 

May we learn from Israel and not repeat the same mistakes!!!

Tom

God is able!

 “And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work.”

‭‭II Corinthians‬ ‭9‬:‭8‬ 

Don’t miss these things God gives his children!

1. Grace! 

2. Sufficiency in all things. God will give you just what you need!

3. Abundance for every good work. When it comes to glorifying Him by your works God will give you more than enough to do that good work!

So get busy!!! Especially sharing Jesus!

Tom

Even to death.

 “For this is God, Our God forever and ever; He will be our guide Even to death.”

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭48‬:‭14‬ ‭

These were the thoughts of Israel and Judah. They should be our thoughts and in our prayers as well. He is Judge, He is Love, He is Merciful and He is forgiving! 

Praise the Lord as He continues to guide us until we die and are home with Him for eternity!

Tom

Worth the wait!

 “And it will be said in that day: “Behold, this is our God; We have waited for Him, and He will save us. This is the Lord; We have waited for Him; We will be glad and rejoice in His salvation.””

Isaiah 25:9 

The wait for the Lord’s return with be worth it! It is unimaginable of how great it will be!

Tom

Exceeding great reward!

 “After these things the word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision, saying, “Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your exceedingly great reward.””

‭‭Genesis‬ ‭15‬:‭1‬ ‭

The sooner we learn that our greatest reward in life is God, the better off we will be! We were made for Him!

Tom

Resting place

 ““And in that day there shall be a Root of Jesse, Who shall stand as a banner to the people; For the Gentiles shall seek Him, And His resting place shall be glorious.””

Isaiah 11:10 

The Root of Jesse is Jesus through the genealogy line. And oh is His rest place glorious for it is eternity in heaven with Him!!! Praise the Lord!
