“Blossom. Take Courage.”

April 20, 2020

“Blossom. Take Courage.”

Blessings folk!

Fear not!
Be not dismayed!

Hear the Word of the Lord for the future of Zion!

Two things for today:
  1. Watch what happens to the wilderness/desert. Why?
  2. Note what we are called to do.

Isa 35:1-4

The wilderness and the desert will be glad,
And the Arabah will rejoice and blossom;
Like the crocus

It will blossom profusely
And rejoice with rejoicing and shout of joy.
The glory of Lebanon will be given to it,
The majesty of Carmel and Sharon.
They will see the glory of the LORD,
The majesty of our God.

Encourage the exhausted,
and strengthen the feeble.

Say to those with anxious heart,
“Take courage, fear not.
Behold, your God will come with vengeance;
The recompense of God will come,
But He will save you.”

The wilderness/desert will be glad/rejoice/blossom.

It will blossom profusely.
It will rejoice.
It will shout for joy.
It will have glory and majesty.

Why?

Because it will see the glory of the Lord/the majesty of God.

What are we to do?

Encourage - the exhausted.
Strengthen - the feeble.
Declare courage and fearlessness - to those who are anxious.
Remind that the recompense of God will come.
Remind that God will save!

Fear not!

Victory is now.
Victory is to come.
Victory is in the Lord.
The Glory and Majesty of the Lord will come.
