Oh give thanks unto the Lord for He is good yes He is good and worthy of our praise. I hope everyone saved room in your soul for this spiritual meal we are about to consume. Today we are going to feast on the comfort of our Father, Get ready.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Father, I’ve been thinking that when we commit ourselves to seeking Your will for our lives and then living it, You mean every day! You want us to be morally upright and honest and sensitive to all those who make up “our world” each day! That means at home with our family, at work, at school, in short, in all of our endeavors. You want each one who crosses our path to sense that we are “different,” to catch a glimpse of Your love flowing through us! You want our everyday living to be a fulfillment of what we say we believe on Sundays! Help us not to fail You, for if all who claim to know You would actually live by Your moral laws, we could make a difference, and restore our nation’s foundations. Give each of us who makes this commitment to You, Your wisdom, and Your sustaining strength. In the name of Jesus I pray, Amen.
Let’s eat.
COMFORT FOR GOD’S PEOPLE
Isaiah 40:1-11
“Comfort, comfort my people,” says your God. “Speak tenderly to Jerusalem. Tell her that her sad days are gone and her sins are pardoned. Yes, the LORD has punished her twice over for all her sins.” Listen! It’s the voice of someone shouting, “Clear the way through the wilderness for the LORD! Make a straight highway through the wasteland for our God! Fill in the valleys, and level the mountains and hills. Straighten the curves, and smooth out the rough places. Then the glory of the LORD will be revealed, and all people will see it together. The LORD has spoken!” A voice said, “Shout!” I asked, “What should I shout?” “Shout that people are like the grass. Their beauty fades as quickly as the flowers in a field. The grass withers and the flowers fade beneath the breath of the LORD. And so it is with people. The grass withers and the flowers fade, but the word of our God stands forever.” O Zion, messenger of good news, shout from the mountaintops! Shout it louder, O Jerusalem. Shout, and do not be afraid. Tell the towns of Judah, “Your God is coming!” Yes, the Sovereign LORD is coming in power. He will rule with a powerful arm. See, he brings his reward with him as he comes. He will feed his flock like a shepherd. He will carry the lambs in his arms, holding them close to his heart. He will gently lead the mother sheep with their young.
