Isaiah 42(:1-4,5-9)
-From the Secret place-
The Lord is really speaking to me, and exciting me more and more about justice, and how at the end of the age His establishment of justice will be one of the most beautiful things He will do because it increases FOREVER! What we do now when we do works of justice(especially focusing on the fatherless and oppressed--in any way, basically on others, and not ourselves), we are sowing into what He is doing, and into what He wants.
I am going to be praying more and more that in His righteousness He would establish justice. They most definitely go together in my point of veiw.
I want to ask you how you are praying this? How are you digging more and more into this? Even if you're not really, how are you encouraged?
You don't have to tell me, I just want to get you to think, and pray about how you are engaging the LORD in this matter, or in any matter, are you digging deeper into the Word?
I want to be here as an encouragement, and as one who pushes you on in the LORD.
One more thing. In Isaiah 42--which I really love, I think that this is such a CLEAR picture of how Jesus is clearly moved by the need of justice, I can just see as I read the first 4 verses that when He comes back He will establish justice!! The only thing keeping Him from doing this is the lack of His people crying out for it--I think. It is my pursuit in prayer right now to pray and cry out for justice to be established-For Jesus to be put on the throne!
My cry is for His justice to roll down, and His righteousness to flow. I want to join with the many many many many others crying out for justice and righteousness, and take my place as one who is radically abandoned to intercession. I believe that this is really what He has called me to.
I want to challenge us to not waste our time, especially this next week and month, I want to make a habbit to, instead of going to the cpu, or the t.v. we go to the prayer closet.
-Intercession-
Jesus, right now I want to come to You, and ask you to establish justice and righteousness. Please help us to be concerned with what You are concerned about. Help me to fix my eyes on You, help us! Father, I pray that You would reveal Jesus to us. Show us Your glory. We love you, and will continue to relentlessly pursue You. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
Blessings!!
