He's Got This

O. T. #1712  "He's Got This"

Isaiah 63

LET IT GLOW

How are you holding up through this pandemic, friend? I'm still walking on down this country road with faith in Jesus. I know it is difficult, so hang onto Him. He's got this.

When Israel is surrounded by hostile enemies desiring her extinction, how could she rise to glory and prominence? The answer is Jesus Christ who comes back to earth:

• He speaks righteousness and is mighty to save, deliver;
• He comes in anger and fury to destroy those who opposed His Beloved Israel'
• He first came to be the Savior, crushed as grapes going through the winepress and alone;
• HIs judgment will be so severe that Jesus' garments will be stained with blood of the people (Rev. 19:13); ultimately, Satan and his demons will be destroyed;
• The time will be a specific day and year of His judgment according to the purposes and plans of God; it will also be the time of His redeemed.

Jesus will victorious in the final war. That final battle at Armageddon will be tremendous.
We saw this place, called the Valley of Jezereel, which means seed of God in Hebrew. It is a huge valley between tall hills or mountains. Right now, it is a fertile agricultural field. Historically, it was the place where Gideaon defeated the Midianites and King Saul was later defeated by the Philistines.
Armageddon means the end of the world in Hebrew, which comes from the Hebrew words, Har Mediddo, Mt. Megiddo. Its size is roughly 380 square kilometers. It is astounding to think of so much blood shed that it will be as high as the horses bridles there.

Whose side are we on, dear one? Jesus is in control of those last days. Are you one of His children? I believe the church and believers will be raptured out of here before this happens.

LET IT GROW

Verse 5 tells us that there was no one to help uphold justice and righteousness, so Jesus Christ brought salvation. Of course, there are many who believe in Him as Savior and Messiah and there are those who reject Him. Do you believe in Jesus as the perfect Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world, as John proclaimed?
Friend, do not wait or put off coming to Jesus, for when He comes in the clouds, it will be too late. Simply confess your sins to Him and ask forgiveness from Jesus and become your Savior. He will.

For us who have already done so, we have our hope in Him. He's got this. Keep trusting Him with all things.

LET IT GO
Lord bless you and keep you; make His face shine upon you; be gracious to you and give you peace.
