Good morning,
Isaiah 43:2-3; “When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty,you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you” ..verse 4 says, “Others were given in exchange for you. I traded their lives for yours, because you are precious to Me.” We are unstoppable, as long as we stay connected to our Lord. There is no circumstance, no test, trials or tribulations that would ever bring us down, if we would only learn to hide under the shadows of God’s mighty wings. God is our deliverer, our restorer and our protection. Our great UPS – our upholder, our preserver, our sustainer. Our rescuer! “Bring all who claim Me as their God, for I have made them for My glory.” (Isaiah 43:7) Just think about everything that you have endured, this year alone. God loves to take our worst days and use them for a turn around for the best days that are ahead. Your life brings God glory. That is a selah, pause, reflect and calmly think on that. You, yes, you bring the God of the universe and beyond, glory. Glory meaning, rare splendor and honor, and copiousness which is abundance; full supply and ample. Just think on that for a moment! You, the one who never feels quite adequate, you bring God an abundance, a full supply. You give Him a rare splendor and honor, by your life being lived for Him. When you go through you are being purified and raised to a new level in your faith.
Look at how God sees it. Isaiah 43:11-13; I, yes I Am the Lord, and there is no other Savior. First I predicted your rescue, then I saved you and proclaimed it to the world. No foreign god has ever done this. You are My witnesses that I Am the only God. No one can snatch anyone out of My hand. No one can undo what I have done.” It is plain and simple, we can’t lose if we stay in His hand. Now you are the only one that can remove yourself from the hand of God. No one else has that power, only you. So choose to stay in His firm and loving grip and you will pass through to the other side, stronger and a more formidable adversary to our enemy. The storms are passing over and when they do, more and better fruit will spring up. For those who are planted by the rivers bear fruit in all seasons and their leaves never wither and they prosper in all they do. Psalms 1:3; “And he shall be like a tree firmly planted [and tended] by the streams of water, ready to bring forth its fruit in its season; its leaf also shall not fade or wither; and everything he does shall prosper [and come to maturity].”
