Children Who Find The Ever Lasting, Merciful, Gracious And Compassionate Father Who Loves Us And Takes Care Of Us For a Thousand Generations!
Forget the former things, do not dwell in the past. See I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up, do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland. Isaiah 43: 18-19
God gave me this scripture the other day.
And it encouraged me so.
Because it gives us hope.
Hope that things can change.
Hope that things will change.
That the way things have been, don’t have to be the way they are going to be in the future.
God is talking to Jews in this scripture-in one application.
For He is telling them, that the past living as slaves, isn’t going to be the future.
That they won’t have to live in the wilderness forever like the people before them.
That He is going to make provision for them.
That He is going to ultimately make salvation for them.
But this applies to all people.
For we have all been slaves to our natural born hearts.
For we have all wandered in this life lost, looking for a place to belong.
For we have strived trying to make it happen in our own strength.
That He is going to make a permanent solution for us all to be saved.
To be saved from slavery.
To be saved from wandering forever.
To be saved from lack, deserts in our lives.
To be saved from trying to be good enough.
That He is going to give us a forever home.
That He is going to give us a forever family.
That He is going to give us Himself as provision.
That He is going to do it for us.
For this all speaks of Jesus and how He came to set us free.
For this all speaks of the provision of Jesus and how He bought us back from the world system-our hearts bent towards the short term, our hearts that lacked, our hearts, that needed healing.
For this all speaks of Jesus and how He marries us, unites with us, giving us Himself as forever family.
For this all speaks of Jesus and how He offers us His eternal home, to be with Him, in His Kingdom forever.
For this all speaks of Jesus and How He completed this, made it all come to pass.
And since He is doing a new thing, changing us from the past of how we believed, how all people lived, Jew and Gentile, when we receive Him, we have hope for new exciting ways, of life, of living, the family that will love us forever, the home that is our space forever, the provision that will never run out, the security knowing that we didn’t earn it so we can’t lose it.
May we know that we know that we know God wants to do good things in all our lives, in our hearts, in our minds, our futures and our todays.
May we know that we know that we know this all starts the moment we ask Jesus into our hearts.
May we know that we know that we know we can all have hope for a better today, for better tomorrow.
