Isaiah 25, The veil has lifted!

Isa 25:1, O LORD, You are my God. I will exalt You, I will praise Your name, For You have done wonderful things; Your counsels of old are faithfulness and truth.

From the mist of tribulation of the world, Praise shall break out exalting the LORD! Isa 24:14.

Isa 25:3, THEREFORE THE STRONG PEOPLE WILL GLORIFY YOU; THE CITY OF THE TERRIBLE NATIONS WILL FEAR YOU.

No more unbelief, no more atheist; The fear of the LORD shall be known to all!

Isa 25:7, AND HE WILL DESTROY ON THIS MOUNTAIN THE SURFACE OF THE COVERING CAST OVER ALL PEOPLE, AND THE VEIL THAT IS SPREAD OVER ALL NATIONS. 

The veil that covers the eyes of all none believers will be destroyed

2Co 3:15-16, BUT EVEN TO THIS DAY, WHEN MOSES IS READ, A VEIL LIES ON THEIR HEART. NEVERTHELESS WHEN ONE TURNS TO THE LORD, THE VEIL IS TAKEN AWAY.

Isa 25:8, HE WILL SWALLOW UP DEATH FOREVER, AND THE LORD GOD WILL WIPE AWAY TEARS FROM ALL FACES; THE REBUKE OF HIS PEOPLE HE WILL TAKE AWAY FROM ALL THE EARTH; FOR THE LORD HAS SPOKEN.

The tribulation is over and the LORD Reigns on the earth! No more death, no more fear; and HE will wipe away our tears of pure joy from our eyes! THIS IS OUR GOD!

Rev 21:4, AND GOD WILL WIPE AWAY EVERY TEAR FROM THEIR EYES; THERE SHALL BE NO MORE DEATH, NOR SORROW, NOR CRYING. THERE SHALL BE NO MORE PAIN, FOR THE FORMER THINGS HAVE PASSED AWAY.” 

Isa 25:9, AND IT WILL BE SAID IN THAT DAY: “BEHOLD, THIS IS OUR GOD; WE HAVE WAITED FOR HIM, AND HE WILL SAVE US. THIS IS THE LORD; WE HAVE WAITED FOR HIM; WE WILL BE GLAD AND REJOICE IN HIS SALVATION.” 

The Jewish nation will come to know that HE whom they have rejected (Acts 4:11), JESUS, is their long-awaited MESSIAH.

Zec 12:10, …THEN THEY WILL LOOK ON ME WHOM THEY PIERCED. YES, THEY WILL MOURN FOR HIM AS ONE MOURNS FOR HIS ONLY SON, AND GRIEVE FOR HIM AS ONE GRIEVES FOR A FIRSTBORN. 

Imagine denying HIM for almost 2000 years only to find out that HE is their MESSIAH! Yes they will mourn for they pierced their own Messiah out of ignorance and pride, but now their eyes are now opened! Remember, GOD uses everything, even their ignorance, to bring salvation to the world! THANK YOU, LORD!

Isaiah 20, Trusting in man rather than GOD?

Isa 20:1, IN THE YEAR THAT TARTAN CAME TO ASHDOD, WHEN SARGON THE KING OF ASSYRIA SENT HIM, AND HE FOUGHT AGAINST ASHDOD AND TOOK IT, 

Tartan, which is a title something like general today, was sent by Sargon the king of Assyria (father to Sennacherib) and took the philistine city of Ashdod! Israel was scared!

Isa 20:2-3, at the same TIME THE LORD SPOKE BY ISAIAH the son of Amoz, saying, “GO, AND REMOVE THE SACKCLOTH FROM YOUR BODY, AND TAKE YOUR SANDALS OFF YOUR FEET.” And he did so, walking naked and barefoot. Then the LORD said, “JUST AS MY SERVANT ISAIAH HAS WALKED NAKED AND BAREFOOT THREE YEARS FOR A SIGN AND A WONDER AGAINST EGYPT AND ETHIOPIA,

The LORD told Isaiah to strip down, not completely naked, but down to his under garments as a sign which the LORD was going to do to Egypt and Ethiopia! Why?

Isa 20:4, SO SHALL THE KING OF ASSYRIA LEAD AWAY THE EGYPTIANS AS PRISONERS AND THE ETHIOPIANS AS CAPTIVES, YOUNG AND OLD, NAKED AND BAREFOOT, WITH THEIR BUTTOCKS UNCOVERED, TO THE SHAME OF EGYPT. 

When Assyria took Ashdod, Israel was looking to form an alliance with Egypt and Ethiopia in order to fight against Assyria! ISRAEL WAS LOOKING FOR HELP IN THE WORLD AND FORGOT ABOUT GOD?

Jos 1:9, HAVE I NOT COMMANDED YOU? BE STRONG AND OF GOOD COURAGE; DO NOT BE AFRAID, NOR BE DISMAYED, FOR THE LORD YOUR GOD IS WITH YOU WHEREVER YOU GO.” 

Isa 20:5, THEN THEY (ISRAEL) SHALL BE AFRAID AND ASHAMED OF ETHIOPIA THEIR EXPECTATION AND EGYPT THEIR GLORY. 

Assyria humiliated the nations which Israel depended on! They were ashamed because they sought for help in man and not GOD!

Jer 17:5, Thus says the LORD: “Cursed is the man who trusts in man And makes flesh his strength, Whose heart departs from the LORD. 

Isa 20:6, And the inhabitant of this territory (Israel) will say in that day, ‘SURELY SUCH IS OUR EXPECTATION, WHEREVER WE FLEE FOR HELP to be delivered from the king of Assyria; and HOW SHALL WE ESCAPE?’ ” 

It’s always sad when people, who say they believe in GOD, place their faith in man? IS THEIR ANYTHING TOO HARD FOR THE LORD?

Isa 26:3-4, YOU WILL KEEP HIM IN PERFECT PEACE, WHOSE MIND IS STAYED ON YOU, BECAUSE HE TRUSTS IN YOU. TRUST IN THE LORD FOREVER, FOR IN YAH, THE LORD, IS EVERLASTING STRENGTH.

Isaiah 19, Wait and see, for it will surely come to pass!

Isa 19:1-2, The burden against Egypt. BEHOLD, THE LORD RIDES ON A SWIFT CLOUD, AND WILL COME INTO EGYPT; The idols of Egypt will totter at His presence, And the heart of Egypt will melt in its midst. “I will set Egyptians against Egyptians; Everyone will fight against his brother, And everyone against his neighbor, City against city, kingdom against kingdom.

As the LORD struck the land of Egypt with the 10 plagues, HE will strike them again!

Isa 19:3-4, The spirit of Egypt will fail in its midst; I will destroy their counsel, And they will consult the idols and the charmers, The mediums and the sorcerers. And the Egyptians I will give Into the hand of a CRUEL MASTER, And A FIERCE KING WILL RULE OVER THEM,” Says the Lord, the LORD of hosts.

Often the LORD strikes a nation by destroying their wise counsel and by giving a bad leader! This looks like the United States today!

Isa 19:14-15, The LORD has mingled a perverse spirit in her midst; And they have caused Egypt TO ERR IN ALL HER WORK, As a drunken man staggers in his vomit. NEITHER WILL THERE BE ANY WORK FOR EGYPT…

Egypt’s economy will be completely crushed, and the fear of the LORD will come upon them!

Isa 19:20b, …for they will cry to the LORD because of the oppressors, and HE WILL SEND THEM A SAVIOR AND A MIGHTY ONE, AND HE WILL DELIVER THEM. 

Egypt, currently a Islamic country, will come to know the LORD!

Isa 19:21, THEN THE LORD WILL BE KNOWN TO EGYPT, AND THE EGYPTIANS WILL KNOW THE LORD IN THAT DAY, and will make sacrifice and offering; yes, they will make a vow to the LORD and perform it. 

NOT ONLY EGYPT, BUT ALSO ASSYRIA!

Isa 19:24-25, IN THAT DAY ISRAEL WILL BE ONE OF THREE WITH EGYPT AND ASSYRIA—A BLESSING IN THE MIDST OF THE LAND, WHOM THE LORD OF HOSTS SHALL BLESS, SAYING, “BLESSED IS EGYPT MY PEOPLE, AND ASSYRIA THE WORK OF MY HANDS, AND ISRAEL MY INHERITANCE.”

This may seem impossible today, but wait, just wait; for it will surely take place! HE KNOWS THE END FROM THE VERY BEGINNING!

Hab 2:3, FOR THE VISION IS YET FOR AN APPOINTED TIME; BUT AT THE END IT WILL SPEAK, AND IT WILL NOT LIE. THOUGH IT TARRIES, WAIT FOR IT; BECAUSE IT WILL SURELY COME, IT WILL NOT TARRY.

Isaiah 12, Come drink from the fountain of life!

Isa 12:1, AND IN THAT DAY YOU WILL SAY: “O LORD, I will praise You; THOUGH YOU WERE ANGRY WITH ME, YOUR ANGER IS TURNED AWAY, AND YOU COMFORT ME. 

The day is coming when ISRAEL SHALL MOURN at the coming of the KING their MESSIAH; for they will look at HIM whom they rejected and pierced on the cross! WE CRUCIFIED OUR OWN MESSIAH? WE REJECTED HIM AND TORTURED OUR OWN KING? FORGIVE US LORD!

Zec 12:10, “And I will pour on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the Spirit of grace and supplication; THEN THEY WILL LOOK ON ME WHOM THEY PIERCED. YES, THEY WILL MOURN FOR HIM AS ONE MOURNS FOR HIS ONLY SON, AND GRIEVE FOR HIM AS ONE GRIEVES FOR A FIRSTBORN. 

Isa 12:2, Behold, God is my salvation, I will trust and not be afraid; ‘For YAH, the LORD, is my strength and song; He also has become my salvation.’ ” 

Our good deed our good thoughts or our money doesn’t save us; only in GOD do we find salvation! Only in HIM do we find life!

Isa 12:3, THEREFORE WITH JOY YOU WILL DRAW WATER FROM THE WELLS OF SALVATION. 

With this water HE will fill us with the HOLY SPIRIT, and we shall rejoice in the KING!

Joh 4:14, BUT WHOEVER DRINKS OF THE WATER THAT I SHALL GIVE HIM WILL NEVER THIRST. BUT THE WATER THAT I SHALL GIVE HIM WILL BECOME IN HIM A FOUNTAIN OF WATER SPRINGING UP INTO EVERLASTING LIFE.” 

Isa 12:4-5, AND IN THAT DAY YOU WILL SAY: “PRAISE THE LORD, CALL UPON HIS NAME; DECLARE HIS DEEDS AMONG THE PEOPLES, MAKE MENTION THAT HIS NAME IS EXALTED.  SING TO THE LORD, FOR HE HAS DONE EXCELLENT THINGS; THIS IS KNOWN IN ALL THE EARTH.

The worship of HIM the KING shall fill the earth for HE reigns in Jerusalem, and all the world shall see HIM!

Isa 12:6, Cry out and shout, O inhabitant of Zion, FOR GREAT IS THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL IN YOUR MIDST!” 

HE WILL REIGN AS KING OF ALL THE EARTH IN OUR VERY PRESENCE. NO MORE ATHIEST, NO MORE CRIME FOR HE SHALL RULE WITH A ROD OF IRON! THE KING IS COMING! BE READY!

Isaiah 11, The coming KING! Get ready, look up!

Isa 11:1, THERE SHALL COME FORTH A ROD FROM THE STEM OF JESSE, AND A BRANCH SHALL GROW OUT OF HIS ROOTS. 

Isaiah seeing the shocking judgement of GOD upon HIS people; like trees in a forest that were cut down, so were HIS people!

Isa 10:18-19, And it will consume the glory of his forest and of his fruitful field, Both soul and body; And THEY WILL BE AS WHEN A SICK MAN WASTES AWAY. THEN THE REST OF THE TREES OF HIS FOREST WILL BE SO FEW IN NUMBER That a child may write them.

But, out of one of those stumps, Jesse the father of David, shall rise up a strong BRANCH by the name of JESUS, the SON of the living GOD!

Jer 23:5, “Behold, the days are coming,” says the LORD, “THAT I WILL RAISE TO DAVID A BRANCH OF RIGHTEOUSNESS; A KING SHALL REIGN AND PROSPER, And execute judgment and RIGHTEOUSNESS IN THE EARTH.

Isa 11:3-4a, His delight is in the fear of the LORD, And HE SHALL NOT JUDGE BY THE SIGHT OF HIS EYES, NOR DECIDE BY THE HEARING OF HIS EARS; BUT WITH RIGHTEOUSNESS He shall judge the poor, …

JESUS will reign as KING of all the earth (Zec 14:9), and HE shall judge in righteousness! HE will not need witnesses for HE knows all things!

Isa 11:4b, He shall strike the earth WITH THE ROD OF HIS MOUTH, AND WITH THE BREATH OF HIS LIPS HE SHALL SLAY THE WICKED.

HE spoke the universe into existence, by the breath of HIS lips HE created the world! HE shall strike the nations with the words of HIS lips!

Psa 33:9, FOR HE SPOKE, AND IT WAS DONE; HE COMMANDED, AND IT STOOD FAST. 

Rev 19:15, Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of ALMIGHTY GOD.

Isa 11:5 NLT, He will wear righteousness like a belt and truth like an undergarment. 

Rev 19:16, And He has on His robe and on His thigh a name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS. 

THE LORD IS COMING BE PREPARED!

Rev 22:20, He who testifies to these things says, “SURELY I AM COMING QUICKLY.” Amen. Even so, come, LORD JESUS!

Isaiah 7, HE is Faithful to HIS promises!

Isa 7:1, Now it came to pass in the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, THAT REZIN KING OF SYRIA AND PEKAH THE SON OF REMALIAH, KING OF ISRAEL, went up to Jerusalem to make war against it, but could not prevail against it.

Israel with other nations attacked Judah in Jerusalem unsuccessfully! The LORD protected king Ahaz, even though he was an evil man who sacrificed his son (2Ki 16:1-4), but by him would come a good king Hezekiah!

Isa 7:3-6, Then the LORD said to Isaiah, “Go out now to meet Ahaz….  and say to him: ‘TAKE HEED, AND BE QUIET; DO NOT FEAR OR BE FAINTHEARTED … HAVE PLOTTED EVIL AGAINST YOU, SAYING, LET US GO UP AGAINST JUDAH AND TROUBLE IT…

It was a chaotic time, brother fighting brother (Israel & Judah), but the LORD made it clear!

Isa 7:7, thus says the Lord GOD: “IT SHALL NOT STAND, NOR SHALL IT COME TO PASS. 

Do not fear, their plans will not come to pass!

Isa 7:10-12, Moreover the LORD spoke again to Ahaz, saying, “ASK A SIGN FOR YOURSELF FROM THE LORD YOUR GOD; ASK IT EITHER IN THE DEPTH OR IN THE HEIGHT ABOVE.” But Ahaz said, “I WILL NOT ASK, NOR WILL I TEST THE LORD!”

JESUS once said, “A wicked and adulterous generations seeks after a sign..(Matt 16:4)”, but it was the LORD that said to ask for a sing! The LORD also said to test HIM regarding our finances (Mal 3:10)! But how many of us do?

Mal 3:10, Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, That there may be food in My house, And TRY ME NOW IN THIS,” SAYS THE LORD OF HOSTS, “If I will not open for you the windows of heaven And pour out for you such blessing That there will not be room enough to receive it. 

Isa 7:14, THEREFORE THE LORD HIMSELF WILL GIVE YOU A SIGN: BEHOLD, THE VIRGIN SHALL CONCEIVE AND BEAR A SON, AND SHALL CALL HIS NAME IMMANUEL. 

Since Ahaz refused to ask for a sign GOD HIMSELF gave a sign of the coming of HIS own SON JESUS; IMMANUEL, GOD WITH US!

Mat 1:23, “BEHOLD, THE VIRGIN SHALL BE WITH CHILD, AND BEAR A SON, AND THEY SHALL CALL HIS NAME IMMANUEL,” which is translated, “God with us.” 

Remember, GOD is not a man that HE should lie, and HE is completely faithful to HIS promises!

2Ti 2:13, IF WE ARE FAITHLESS, HE REMAINS FAITHFUL; HE CANNOT DENY HIMSELF. 

Deu 7:9, “THEREFORE KNOW THAT THE LORD YOUR GOD, HE IS GOD, THE FAITHFUL GOD WHO KEEPS COVENANT AND MERCY FOR A THOUSAND GENERATIONS WITH THOSE WHO LOVE HIM AND KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS;

Proverbs 23, Life is short, and Eternity is long!

Pro 23:1-3, When you sit down to eat with a ruler, Consider carefully what is before you; And put a knife to your throat If you are a man given to appetite. Do not desire his delicacies, FOR THEY ARE DECEPTIVE FOOD.

If a rich man has placed a banquet before you consider, why is he doing this? The rich do not give away their favors for free, but want something more valuable from you!

Dan 1:8, BUT DANIEL PURPOSED IN HIS HEART THAT HE WOULD NOT DEFILE HIMSELF WITH THE PORTION OF THE KING’S DELICACIES, NOR WITH THE WINE WHICH HE DRANK;…

Daniel would have ruined his relationship with the living GOD by eating defiled food offered to idols and demons!  

Pro 23:9, DO NOT SPEAK IN THE HEARING OF A FOOL, FOR HE WILL DESPISE THE WISDOM OF YOUR WORDS. 

A while back I was talking to some co-workers of mine about the LORD and HIS word. One of them mocked me over and over again for several weeks! HE was a fool!

Pro 23:13-14, DO NOT WITHHOLD CORRECTION FROM A CHILD, FOR IF YOU BEAT HIM WITH A ROD, HE WILL NOT DIE. YOU SHALL BEAT HIM WITH A ROD, AND DELIVER HIS SOUL FROM HELL.

If you love your child then correct him/her with the rod of correction! BUT IF YOU REFUSE, DON’T WORRY FOR THE STATE PENITENTIARY WILL CORRECT HIM FOR YOU!

Pro 23:17-18, DO NOT LET YOUR HEART ENVY SINNERS, BUT BE ZEALOUS FOR THE FEAR OF THE LORD ALL THE DAY; FOR SURELY THERE IS A HEREAFTER, AND YOUR HOPE WILL NOT BE CUT OFF.

The world says, “LIFE IS SHORT, ENJOY IT”, but HIS word tells us, “ETERNITY IS LONG PREPARE FOR IT”! Don’t envy sinners for their eternal reward will be found in the pit! Seek the LORD and live!

Isa 38:18, NLT, For the dead cannot praise YOU; they cannot raise their voices in praise. Those who go down to the grave can no longer hope in YOUR faithfulness. 

Rev 20:15, And ANYONE NOT FOUND WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF LIFE WAS CAST INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE. 

IS YOUR NAME WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF LIFE?

Proverbs 3:1-12, Trusting in the LORD!

Pro 3:1-2, My son, do not forget my law, But let your heart keep my commands; FOR LENGTH OF DAYS AND LONG LIFE AND PEACE THEY WILL ADD TO YOU.

Wisdom will preserve your life; it will keep you from an evil path or having fools for friends! Following the foot steps of a fool will lead to death, but wisdom will add to your life!

Pro 28:26, HE WHO TRUSTS IN HIS OWN HEART IS A FOOL, BUT WHOEVER WALKS WISELY WILL BE DELIVERED. 

Pro 3:5-6, Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.

It’s easy to trust in GOD when everything is going well, but when trials come then your faith is tested! It’s not easy and doubt will come but much like fine gold is purged of impurities by fire so is your faith being purged by trials!

Mal 3:3, HE WILL SIT AS A REFINER AND A PURIFIER OF SILVER; HE WILL PURIFY THE SONS OF LEVI, AND PURGE THEM AS GOLD AND SILVER, THAT THEY MAY OFFER TO THE LORD AN OFFERING IN RIGHTEOUSNESS.

Leaning on our understanding is our default, but the LORD is saying TRUST IN ME, LET THAT BE YOUR NEW DEFAULT REACTION TO ANY CIRCUMSTANCE!

Mar 9:23-24, Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”  Immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, “LORD, I BELIEVE; HELP MY UNBELIEF!” 

Pro 3:11-12, My son, do not despise the chastening of the LORD, Nor detest His correction; For whom the LORD loves He corrects, Just as a father the son in whom he delights.

As a loving father corrects his child, and not his neighbor’s child, so does the LORD correct HIS children! Are you HIS?

Heb 12:7-8, If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not chasten? BUT IF YOU ARE WITHOUT CHASTENING, of which all have become partakers, THEN YOU ARE ILLEGITIMATE AND NOT SONS.

Trusting in the work of the unseen FATHER is foolish to non-believers, but for Christians we clearly see HIS provisions in life! REMEMBER HE IS FAITHFUL AND MERCIFUL! TRUST IN THE LORD AND HE SHALL DIRECT YOUR PATH!

Psalm 147, The GOD of Creation!

Psa 147:1, PRAISE THE LORD! FOR IT IS GOOD TO SING PRAISES TO OUR GOD; FOR IT IS PLEASANT, AND PRAISE IS BEAUTIFUL. 

I’ve went to a men’s conference where a thousand men were worshipping the LORD! It was just awesome and beautiful and I felt that the LORD just filled that sanctuary completely!

Joh 4:24, GOD IS SPIRIT, AND THOSE WHO WORSHIP HIM MUST WORSHIP IN SPIRIT AND TRUTH.” 

Psa 147:2, The LORD builds up Jerusalem; HE GATHERS TOGETHER THE OUTCASTS of Israel.

The LORD rejects no one, HE seeks the homeless, he seeks the sinners, the drug addicted, for everyone is precious in HIS eyes!

Psa 147:3, HE HEALS THE BROKENHEARTED AND BINDS UP THEIR WOUNDS.

This was HIS mission to bring to HIMSELF the outcast, the poor, and the brokenhearted!

Luk 4:18, “THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD IS UPON ME, BECAUSE HE HAS ANOINTED ME TO PREACH THE GOSPEL TO THE POOR; HE HAS SENT ME TO HEAL THE BROKENHEARTED, TO PROCLAIM LIBERTY TO THE CAPTIVES AND RECOVERY OF SIGHT TO THE BLIND, TO SET AT LIBERTY THOSE WHO ARE OPPRESSED; 

Psa 147:4-5, HE COUNTS THE NUMBER OF THE STARS; HE CALLS THEM ALL BY NAME. GREAT IS OUR LORD, AND MIGHTY IN POWER; HIS UNDERSTANDING IS INFINITE.

Today, with our current technology it is estimated that there are 1Billion Trillion stars, Yet HE knows them by name, and HE knows you and me! Nothing escapes HIM!

Psa 147:9, HE gives to the beast its food, And to the young ravens that cry.

If HE feeds even the beast of the world and the ravens that cry out, will HE not provide for you also? Remember you were created in HIS image, and knows you by name! HE is faithful!

Mat 6:26, Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. ARE YOU NOT OF MORE VALUE THAN THEY?

Psa 37:25, I have been young, and now am old; YET I HAVE NOT SEEN THE RIGHTEOUS FORSAKEN, NOR HIS DESCENDANTS BEGGING BREAD. 

Remember praise is beautiful especially for those that know their GOD! HE IS FAITHFUL, AND WORTHY OF OUR PRAISES!

Psalm 142, walking in Darkness!

Psa 142:1-2, …I cry out to the LORD with my voice; With my voice to the LORD I make my supplication. I POUR OUT MY COMPLAINT BEFORE HIM; I DECLARE BEFORE HIM MY TROUBLE.

“Caves make good closets for prayer; their gloom and solitude are helpful to the exercise of devotion. Had David prayed as much in his palace as he did in his cave, he might never have fallen into the act which brought such misery upon his later days.” (Spurgeon)

David brought his complaint to the LORD for HE is his refuge and strength in times of trouble!

Psa 46:1-2, …GOD IS OUR REFUGE AND STRENGTH, A VERY PRESENT HELP IN TROUBLE. THEREFORE WE WILL NOT FEAR…

Psa 142:3, When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, THEN YOU KNEW MY PATH. IN THE WAY IN WHICH I WALK They have secretly set a snare for me. 

There are some troubles in life that seem to cripple us, not knowing where to go or what to do. Yet while were overwhelmed and confused, the LORD isn’t! HE knows what to do and HE can guide you if you let HIM!

Pro 3:5-6, Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge HIM, AND HE SHALL DIRECT YOUR PATHS.

Psa 142:7, BRING MY SOUL OUT OF PRISON, That I may praise Your name; The righteous shall surround me, For You shall deal bountifully with me.” 

David wasn’t in a prison, but his own soul seemed imprisoned by the circumstances; in the same way sin imprisons our souls. Externally they may seem find, but internally there is a darkness that seems normal, and they don’t realize they are walking in darkness!

Joh 8:12, Then JESUS spoke to them again, saying, “I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. HE WHO FOLLOWS ME SHALL NOT WALK IN DARKNESS, BUT HAVE THE LIGHT OF LIFE.” 

We will have trouble in this world, but those that walk in the light know their GOD, and can see that HE is in full control! HE shall never leave us nor forsake us; for HE is faithful to HIS promises found in scripture! Trust in HIM!

Php 4:6, Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;
