These apostles just did not "hear" about what was happening. They were eyewitnesses "of the majesty." 2 Peter 1:16. They all had read the Old Testament, the sure word of what was to come. So, what are we to do>. Search the Scriptures. Believe the truth of this sure word of prophecy. Cast your heart into the doctrine. Regulate your thoughts and conversation. Use the Scripture as a light to dispel the darkness in your world which is upon the face of the whole earth. The Word is a Lamp to your feet. Acknowledge your own darkness. When the light of Scripture is "darted" into the mind, the Day-Star arises with light in your soul. Just like the daybreak advancing and spreading and diffusing itself through the whole soul. If we walk wise, it is because of the shining of the Word of God in my heart. That's what you are are supposed to do...your duty...search the Scriptures and let the light rise in your heart by the assistance of the Holy Spirit.
Is your hope gone?"Come, breath, from the four winds and breathe into these slain, that they may live."
Ezekiel 37. Verse 9 and Verse 11 on 9/11.
To someone who is dabbling in lost hope, there are no adequate words to tell you what you don't know. There are deeper issues. We are not alive. Oh, that we may live today and always. Oh! That we would celebrate the Grace alive in each of us today. And not focus on what needs to change; what needs to improve; what is so terribly wrong. May the joy and hope of our hearts be the unending Grace abounding toward each of us as we face our loss, our lifelessness, and our lack of love.
We are Israel. Come, Lord Jesus, and wake us all up.
DEAR GOD, PLEASE CHANGE ME IN MY LACKLUSTRE 10,000 MOMENTS OF TRYING TOO HARD TO IMPROVE TO BE SOMEBODY. May we truly celebrate this day Your Grace so Amazing, so Unheard of, so Glorious.
