Title: Vision of 2011 (Isaiah 40:)
Contents
All saints! What kind of situation are you in the middle of your life?
Have all the things you have prayed for and prayed for since the new year or a long time ago have come true?
However, perhaps in the midst of prayers, because they have not yet received an answer, they feel miserable about their faith, and the God who became 'Jehovah Shammah' could not forgive my sins and threw them away. So, even though the 2011 New Year has just started less than a month ago, the whole world is already dark, so how should we live in the future? Are there any of you in the midst of discouragement?
If there is such a person, I hope you will hear the voice of God through the prophet Isaiah today.
First of all, the voice of God given through verses 1 to 5 is that “the glory of the Lord is coming” among all who were with him.
Of course, today's text was made 70 years after Isaiah proclaimed the word of God, and 700 years later, it was proclaimed to prepare the way for the Messiah. If we apply this to our lives...
In the midst of hardships and hardships, and in the midst of all the hardships and pains, I sincerely comfort you. Not only that, but the judgment and punishment that was inflicted on you for your sins was paid for through my Son, Jesus Christ. Therefore, if you sincerely confess your sins and ask for grace, you will receive the grace of forgiveness through the covenant made with your people (2 Samuel 7:14, 15) in 2 Samuel 7 (1 John 1:9). Let go of the discouragement that comes in the midst of sin, let go of your sorrowful heart, and go forward with courage.
This forgiveness was not done out of some kind of justice, but by a woman who became ‘Yahweh Zidgenu’ and did it because I loved you so much. And let go of envy, hatred, strife, and anger, the toughness that sprang up because of hurt and inferiority complex. So I said, ‘The peace I give you, fill it with the Lord’s Shalom.’ And do not follow the tricks of the wicked any longer, stay away from the lies of the wicked, and do not stand in the seat of sinners (Psalm 1).
Then we will read verse 5 together.
“The glory of the Lord will be revealed, and all flesh will see it together, saith the mouth of the Lord.” Amen
Second, always abide in the Word. is that
Psalm 1:2-3 says, “Meditate on the word of the Lord day and night and rejoice, so that the fruit planted by streams of water will bear fruit in every season, and the leaf will not wither, and it will prosper in everything you do.” I did.
However, as in southern Judah, they did not really depend on God, but chose Assyria from a worldly point of view and formed an alliance. made it
In this way, those who covet power with worldly greed, who pursue it fully for wealth and honor, are the ones that wither and wither, nothing lasts forever. (Isaiah 40:6-8)
But to those who rely on the Lord alone to abide in the Word, God promised David through 2 Samuel 7, “I will be with you wherever you go, and since I have destroyed all your enemies before you, You will be freed and be at peace, and I will make your name honorable as the name of one of the greatest in the world. And in this way your house and your kingdom will be preserved before you forever, and your throne will be established.” Amen
Dear saints!
Because the word of the eternal God is 'desire more than gold, that is, much fine gold, and sweeter than honey (Psalm 19:10-11) I hope that the blessing of uniting the nation will come as this will become stronger and the evangelization of the nation will come forward. Amen
Third, look to the Lord alone. is that
2011 will surely be the year in which we live the ‘best life’. do you believe
Because we are going to live our lives looking to the Lord Yahweh. Among you and me, who have decided to live such a life, like Daniel and his three friends, in the scorching furnace and in the lions' den, as the God of 'Jehovah Roi' protected and kept him, the same person who lived by our side 24 hours a day. Because 'Jehovah Nissi' will lead you to the best place.
It is also because the God of ‘Jehovah Jireh’ and the God of ‘Rapha’, the healer, not only healed and healed, but also proclaimed a vision. Let's read the proclamation as best we can. This is from verses 29 to 31.
“He gives strength to the weary and adds strength to the weak; even the boys grow weary and weary, and the young men stumble and stumble, but those who wait in the Lord will find new strength, and they will rise and fall like eagles with the wings of an eagle. No, I will not get tired even if I walk.” Amen
Dear saints!
So far, I have been through hardships. So was it too hard? Was it difficult? So, did you get discouraged and try to give up? In the face of his suffering, Job made a confession of faith, saying, “On my way, he knows, and after he has tested me I will come forth like gold” (Job 23:10). With this determination of faith, he overcame hardships, received God's recognition as a righteous person, and enjoyed double the blessings than before.
Therefore, the reason God has allowed us to suffer is as 1 Peter 1:7 says, “so that the trial of your faith is more precious than gold that perishes even though it is tried by fire, so that when Jesus Christ appears, we may receive praise, glory, and honor. I bless you that you will live a life that waits only for the Lord, meditates on His Word and rejoices, obeys the laws he has given you, and lives to the glory of the Lord.
Among you and me, who is there today as in verse 8 and below that will block the blessings of God given to us? I believe that Yahweh Yahweh God, who must have done good by working together, will add blessings to blessings and broaden the boundaries. Amen
I will pray.
God of blessings! The LORD, the God of Shammah, who dwelt in Solomon's temple! Thank you for being here with us. He found me in the midst of a scarlet-colored sin and forgave me with the righteousness of ‘Yahweh Chidugenu’, made water spring up in the desert in the midst of our life like a wasteland, and made roses bloom, like water flowing from a desert where wisdom is lacking. He heals bad habits that flow out, makes up for weaknesses, gives strength to what is lacking in ability, makes it a vision that soars like an eagle's wing, and puts the victory flag of the God of 'Jehovah and Nissi' to victory. Thank you. ‘2011 is going to be the best year of my life. I believe that the name of the 'noble one' that came to David will come to our children. I prayed all these words in the name of Jesus. Amen John Byun
