For I hear the Lord Say,
Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: Isaiah 55:6
Then, I hear Him say,
Look forward to this day (While I AM Near). I AM not just the God of the present or future. “I AM the God of all times”. In tragedy and triumph – I AM still He. In sickness and death – I AM still He.
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending,
saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. Revelation 1:8
My children you should thirst for righteousness. You should hunger for truth. Things great and small are before you, but I say unto you – have hope in God.
Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life. Proverbs 13:12
Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. Psalm 37:3
O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him. Psalm 34:9
A time is coming where you will neither eat nor drink because of sorrow in the land. Find yourselves feeding upon the Word of God. Hold My promises near and dear. Soon I will be there in your mist.
My Thoughts
Reading God’s Word brings comfort. There are many instances in our lives where we are “Wordless”. When tragedy strikes friends, family, and neighbors – sometimes we are speechless. Encourage yourself in the Lord. Then encourage others.
Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, saith your God. Isaiah 40:1
1 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. 2 Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. 3 Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David. 4 Behold, I have given him for a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people. 5 Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and nations that knew not thee shall run unto thee because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he hath glorified thee. 6 Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: 7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. 8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. 9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. 10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: 11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. 12 For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. 13 Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off. Isaiah 55:1-13
