Isaiah 40-43
My heart is blessed this morning after reading these chapters in Isaiah. There is so much promise, so much hope and love pouring out to me through those words. Yes, I know they were written to the physical nation of Israel long ago. But I miss out on what God would say to me today if I don’t realize that what He said to them applies to me, too, as His child through the blood of Jesus.
He is my strength, my Living Water in the dessert, the One who levels those mountains I have to climb. He is my protector, the One who gives me the Bread of Life to sustain me. He is my Savior, My God.
And I am His.
There is no one on earth whom He loves more, is more invested in, or longs for anyone more than me. I am truly blessed.
The same can be true for you, if you’ve accepted Jesus as your Savior.
It’s true.
The Bible tells me so.
You are so right…the words apply to all of God’s children as the living and timeless will of God! We need to always remember to keep things in proper context and “accurately handle the word of truth…” (2 Timothy 2:15). But the entire bible is for us to read and learn from, even though we are NT Christians under grace…
