Today’s Scripture: Isaiah 62:3 NLT: The LORD will hold you in his hand for all to see–a splendid crown in the hand of God.
I find it strange that there is so much comfort in something I can’t understand. Seriously, being held in the hand of the LORD? That is a big hand and yet somehow I believe it, I feel it and I know it. Just as Isaiah was speaking this to the people of Jerusalem the Word speaks this to us as well.
Isaiah 61 and 62 are full of reminders of how blessed we are and how we can rejoice in the portion God has given us. God has given me this joy and I will rejoice. My soul rejoices in my God and just as stated in Isaiah 62:1, I WILL NOT KEEP SILENT. Because my heart yearns for God’s people I can not remain silent.
I am praying for God’s people and pray that I can share this thing I can not understand with those who need it. The warmth and strength of His hand the everlasting joy He has blessed us with. Forget understanding and just seek Him and if you haven’t experienced it yet, you will.
Do you just know something that you can not understand? What is it?
Today’s Prayer: Father God, thank You for holding me in Your hand. I praise You and rejoice in You. LORD help me to speak to whoever it is You desire. Use me LORD to love and speak with those seeking to know Your joy. Teach me the steps to joy that You desire for me to share. LORD, I am praying for Your people. Amen
