Wig’s Word of God Today 12-16-2010
The LORD calls you back, like a wife forsaken and grieved in spirit, a wife married in youth and then cast off, says your God. Isaiah 54:6
Isaiah 54:1-10, Psalm 30:2 and 4, 5-6, 11-12a and 13b & Luke 7:24-30
Do you ever feel the Lord calling you back? Back from sinful selfish ways? Back from meeting Him halfway? Back to His Strong Arms where He waits continuously to cradle you in His Arms of Mercy. Isaiah reminds us God will never forsake you. He may get mad at you but He will never leave you. He is our Father and His love is a deep bonded paternal love. The Bible tells us in Deuteronomy 31:6, “Be brave and steadfast; have no fear or dread of them, for it is the LORD, your God, Who marches with you; He will never fail you or forsake you.” His Mercy guides us if we allow His Decrees to settle into our souls where His Holy Spirit will give us New Life of hope, faith, charity and love.
Many of us would agree our nation has begun to come back to the Lord. There are sweeping reforms happening in churches all over America embracing the Holy Spirit to guide our selfish ways back to His care. He is waiting with open arms and with His Mighty Arms He will embrace this great nation with joy in our hearts. His Covenant of Peace is Eternal and His Mercy forgiving as Isaiah tells us in our last verse of today’s reading; “Though the mountains leave their place and the hills be shaken, My love shall never leave you nor my covenant of peace be shaken, says the LORD, Who has mercy on you.” Isaiah 54:10 In Loving your love of Christ, you embrace the New Covenant of Love fulfilled in Christ’s Life, Death and Resurrection.
And so we pray: My Lord and My God, we continue our nine days of prayer for Jhaysonn’s peace and healing. We pray today to be a people who travel back to Your Trust sustaining our confidence in Your Word and our vocations to accomplish Your Will. “I will never forsake you or abandon you” will guide us by our faith, hope, charity and love. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.
God Bless,

Romans 8:28
Blood of Peace
Cry with joy
Return with surety
His love sustains
His mercy unsparing
Noah He promised
Water rise not
His anger diminishes
Secrets to unlock
Rescued from sin
Good will obtained
Forever give thanks
Preach to proclaim
Covenant of peace
Righteousness to speak
Christ’s Salvation granted
Blood of Peace
