Theme for the Week: MATURING DISCIPLES DISCERN WHAT IS PLEASING TO GOD AT ALL TIMES
Reading: Isaiah 26:16-19
_______________________
Isaiah 26:18 NIV
[18] We were with child, we writhed in labor, but we gave birth to wind. We have not brought salvation to the earth, and the people of the world have not come to life
When we stray from God's presence, there is a spiritual emptiness that no earthly pleasure can fill, and it is in this pain that we realize our deep need for His grace and mercy.
We may strive, toil, and seek to accomplish much in this world, but without God’s presence and guidance, it feels like "giving birth to wind"—fruitless and hollow.
As maturing disciples, we must come to understand that distancing ourselves from God leads to spiritual barrenness, but drawing near to Him brings life and joy.
Shalom.
Let's Pray:
Heavenly Father, we praise You. Lord, bring new life where there has been barrenness, and let us find joy in Your presence once again, in Jesus' name. Amen.
