  PROMISES Isaiah 55:1-13  Devotional:- “So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it” (V.11) NKJV One thing that is common with lovers are promises. It is part of what a true lover will want to hear. To a true lover, a promise is like a cheque capable of turning into cash. So when people who love us promise us, we cherish the promises. And when we remember them, it gladdens our heart. We even sometime feel happy enough to share it with other friends. One other terrible thing that is common with people is failing to fulfill promises. That is why it will be unwise to marry someone based on mare promises. These failure in promises of people, in some cases, are due to the inadequacy of human strength, or unforeseen circumstances that can overtake the promises, so the promised often feel deceived.

FOR YOUR ADVANTAGE

FOR YOUR ADVANTAGE

Isaiah 60:1-8
Devotional:- “or behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and deep darkness the people; but the Lord will arise over you and his glory will be seen upon you.” (v. 2)

    It is visible in the scriptures we read today that God’s word has already foreseen the doom of this generation. In other word, the current shaking is from the Lord. It is part of His agenda for the end time. This shaking is actually necessary to put shame to ungodliness and people’s hope in material and money which has become the gods of many.

I like you to see that, as much as these shakings are programmed by God, it is also for your rising and glory. Our devotional verse shows us that darkness will cover the earth. Also in the middle of the verse comes a conjunction ‘but…’ this simply show us that some people shall be exempted like it happened to the children of Israel in Egypt (Exodus 8:23).

God’s word says, though darkness shall cover the earth but God shall arise over you. This darkness is confusion and lack of understanding of what to do. But the light of God will lighten your way. Since darkness is what brings out the glory of light, the darkness is therefore for your advantages. All you need to ask for is light from above. Remember, the word of God says you will stand out (Matthew 5:14-16). While the people in confusion are selling their properties, you will receive grace to be buying. While they are quitting, you will be getting established and taking over in Jesus name. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, Release Your Light On Me.

“LIGHT ALWAYS TAKES ADVANTAGE OF DARKNESS TO SHINE.”
