Good evening!
God has used these verses from Isaiah to comfort me during times of great trials.
“Do not fear, for I am with you;
do not be afraid, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you; I will help you;
I will hold on to you with my righteous right hand.
Be sure that all who are enraged against you will be ashamed and disgraced;
those who contend with you
will become as nothing and will perish.
You will look for those who contend with you, but you will not find them. Those who war against you will become absolutely nothing .
For I am the Lord your God,
who holds your right hand,
who says to you, ‘Do not fear,
I will help you.” Isaiah 41: 10-13 (CSB). #prayer #Christian #Jewish #Muslim #faith #courage #fridaymorning

I prayed for today’s scripture and this is what the Lord dropped into my spirit. Maybe we all need this reminder that God has high standards. Christianity is a come as you are religion, but we are expected to allow Christ and the Holy Spirit to change us from the inside out.
“Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.”
1 Corinthians 6: 9-10 (ESV).

“A Call to Repentance
Come, and let us return to the Lord;
For He has torn, but He will heal us;
He has stricken, but He will bind us up.
After two days He will revive us;
On the third day He will raise us up,
That we may live in His sight.
Let us know,
Let us pursue the knowledge of the Lord. His going forth is established as the morning;
He will come to us like the rain,
Like the latter and former rain to the earth.”
Hosea 6:1-3 (NKJV).
