God spoke to Israel through the prophet, Isaiah. He told them He created them, redeemed them and that they were His own people. He told them they were precious to Him. God, who is love, told them He loved them. He said He would deliver them and protect them. They could walk through fire and not be burned. God promised to gather His people from far places to Himself.
All these
promises were because of God’s desire to bless His people. Israel had a covenant with God by the faith
of Abraham. As Christians, we are
promised all that was promised to Israel, and more because of an even better
covenant, the New Covenant in the blood of Jesus. We are God’s chosen and He has made us sit
together with Him in Heavenly places. We
can’t lose; Praise the Lord!
Prayer: Father, we thank you for the New
Covenant. We thank you that you will
never leave us, or forsake us. In Jesus’
name, we pray. Amen.
