But
Those Who Trust In The Lord Will Find New Strength.
They
Will Soar High On Wings Like Eagles. They Will Run
And
Not Grow Weary. They Will Walk And Not Faint.
Scripture
Isaiah
40:28-31
28 Have you
never heard?
Have you never
understood?
The Lord is the everlasting God,
the
Creator of all the earth.
He never grows weak or weary.
No
one can measure the depths of his understanding.
29 He
gives power to the weak
and strength to
the powerless.
30 Even
youths will become weak and tired,
and
young men will fall in exhaustion.
31 But
those who trust in the Lord will find new
strength.
They will soar high on wings
like eagles.
They will run and not grow weary.
They
will walk and not faint.
Isaiah
41:10
10 Don’t
be afraid, for I am with you.
Don’t be
discouraged, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help
you.
I will hold you up with my victorious
right hand.
1
Peter 3:12
12 The eyes
of the Lord watch over those who do right,
and
his ears are open to their prayers.
But the Lord turns
his face
against those who do evil.”
Observation
Why
is it so important for me to read God's Word every day? One of the
main reasons, though there are many, is that the Bible is full of
God's promises!
And
if I didn't read them on a daily basis I could easily grow weary and
faint and give up.
Are
you weary? Are you ready to give up? Let me encourage you to open up
God's Word and dig in and then hold on to every promise that God
gives you today!
I
listed a few of my favorite promises from my Bible reading this
morning, but I could have listed a few more both from Isaiah and from
1 Peter.
Every
day God shows me all of the things that He has promised me as I read
His Word. And you can enjoy them too if you take time, just a few
minutes, to open up His Book!
Application
I
look forward to getting up tomorrow morning to read more of what God
has to say to me!
How
about you? Will you take a few minutes each day to read God's Word?
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, thank You for giving us Your Word. You did not leave us here
alone. You have given us Your Holy Spirit, Your Word, and other
believers to help us get through each day. Thank You for each and
every one of Your promises.
I
pray for my special friend James Hartley as he goes in for surgery
today and I pray for our friends Maria and Jerry Serrano as they go
through this time of loss.

Bible Reading: Isaiah 40,41,42; 1 Peter 3
