It's ALL in Him
Colossians 1:27 NKJV To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. Colossians 2:3 NKJV in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. I could see my dear friend look, with incredulity, deep into my eyes to see if I really meant what I had just said. I held her gaze, having experienced what I had said. What was it that made her examine my words? Well, I told her th

Who is blind like My servant
Who is blind like my servant Isaiah 42:19-20 AMPC Who is blind but My servant [Israel]? Or deaf like My messenger whom I send? Who is blind like the one who is at peace with Me [who has been admitted to covenant relationship with Me]? Yes, who is blind like the Lord's servant? [20] You have seen many things, but you do not observe or apprehend their true meaning. His ears are open, but he hears not! There's none so blind as those who will not see - this is a saying based on t

Israel, just trust!
Psalm 115:1-5,8-13 NLT Not to us, O LORD, not to us, but to Your Name goes all the glory for Your unfailing love and faithfulness. [2] Why let the nations say, "Where is their God?" [3] Our God is in the Heavens, and He does as He wishes. [4] Their idols are merely things of silver and gold, shaped by human hands. [5] They have mouths but cannot speak, and eyes but cannot see. [8] And those who make idols are just like them, as are all who trust in them. [9] O Israel, trust t

Keep this in mind
Psalm 113:4-6 NKJV The LORD is high above all nations, His glory above the heavens. [5] Who is like the LORD our God, Who dwells on high, [6] Who humbles Himself to behold The things that are in the heavens and in the earth? It's so easy to get things out of perspective when there's so much chaos in our world. When we see marauding mobs causing mayhem on the streets of cities or hear bold pronouncements from the "United Nations" - we can feel overwhelmed and at the mercy of u

For Zion's sake
Isaiah 62:1-7 NKJV For Zion's sake I will not hold My peace, And for Jerusalem's sake I will not rest, Until her righteousness goes forth as brightness, And her salvation as a lamp that burns. [2] The Gentiles shall see your righteousness, And all kings your glory. You shall be called by a new name, Which the mouth of the LORD will name. [3] You shall also be a crown of glory In the hand of the LORD, And a royal diadem In the hand of your God. [4] You shall no longer be terme

What does Zion say?
Isaiah 49:14 CSB Zion says, "The LORD has abandoned me; the Lord has forgotten me!" How many of us have echoed this cry in our hearts when we've experienced some tragedy, illness or grief. The Jewish people, in particular, have been through many dark periods where it seemed they were abandoned by God. Those who lost everything during the Holocaust, or even survived, lost their faith in the Lord. Most recently the October 7 massacre seemingly demonstrated that God had forsaken

It's not enough!
Isaiah 49::6 CSB "It is not enough for You to be My Servant raising up the tribes of Jacob and restoring the protected ones of Israel. I will also make You a Light for the nations, to be My Salvation to the ends of the earth." Isaiah 49 begins by voicing Yesua's thoughts about His Calling: Isaiah 49:1-2 CSB Coasts and islands, listen to Me; distant peoples, pay attention. The LORD called Me before I was born. He named Me while I was in My mother's womb. [2] He made My Words l
