To be honest it has been a while since i picked up my bible and today i did again.When i did, I was lead to the book of Isaiah chapter 1 . To me this meant that God was offering me a new beginning a chance to start afresh and follow his path to righteousness. In the book of Isaiah, he had a vision from the Most High about Judah. But when i read it feels like he is describing how i have turned away from God and how my sins look like sores on my (spiritual)body. This is exactly how i have felt for the past days. I have been drowning in my sins and i have provoked the anger of the Holy One of Israel. I have had this rebellious spirit within me that wasn’t even showing any signs of repentance for my sins. It felt like there was a battle between my good side and my bad side and the bad side was winning because i was totally not focused on my calling to serve.
The book of Isaiah has a perfect description of how i felt . In verses 5-6 it says and i quote “ Why should you be stricken again? You will revolt more and more. The whole head is sick and the whole heart is faints . From the soles of the foot even to the head , there is no soundness in it, but wounds and bruises and putrefying sores; that have not been bound up or closed or soothed with ointment.” The word of God truly comes to live if you read it with the Spirit
The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is a merciful God . He offers a new beginning to anyone who hears his voice and turns away for their evil ways. This is clear in Isaiah 1:18.He loves his creation so much that he is willing to forgive us even though we have fallen short of his glory. Praise and honour be unto you Father for being so forgiving and merciful. I pray that you give us the strength and grace to abide in your ways and resist the evil one . In this time and age Evil is so rampant that it is very difficult to escape but with God all things are possible and by his grace we will overcome.
As i start a fresh i pray that all that has been lost in the wilderness of my rebelion be restored to me in a 100 folds. I ask for strength and guidance from the Holy Spirit as i know that the journey ahead will not be an easy one .Keep me in your prayers and i will do the same and my the Most High grant us a place in his kingdom and make us ready for the coming of our King . All these i pray in the name of Yahsuha Hamasiach . Amen !
