The Lord Be With You Today!
Isaiah 62:2
The nations will see your righteousness, and all kings your glory;
(Though His people had been in exile,
though they had sinned and failed in their walk with their God,
in many ways, much like us today,
the Lord has declared that He is not only setting them free,
but that He is also declaring that He has forgiven them, restored them,
and is now ready to show them off to the world as His special delight.
When we walk with the Lord and in His purposes,
all will see His handiwork in our lives.
Even those in authority over us will see and acknowledge
the glory of the Lord that emanates from us,
That revelation to them will not be from our accomplishments and striving,
but will be the Lord's doing and not ours.)
you will be called by a new name that the mouth of the LORD will bestow.
(What a glorious thought that the Lord Himself names us,
calls us by a new name that we and others will recognize as ours,
as belonging to and describing us.
No longer will we be known by our names of broken, wounded, and failure.
He will call us by a new name that He Himself names us with,
a name based on who He has designed us to be
and what He knows about our potential in Him!)
May the Lord richly bless you this day!
In Christ's love,
Blessings!
