Isaiah 49:8-10
This is what the LORD says:
"In the time of my favor I will answer you,
and in the day of salvation I will help you;
I will keep you and will make you
to be a covenant for the people,
to restore the land
and to reassign its desolate inheritances,
to say to the captives, 'Come out,'
and to those in darkness, 'Be free!'
"They will feed beside the roads
and find pasture on every barren hill.
They will neither hunger nor thirst,
nor will the desert heat or the sun beat upon them.
He who has compassion on them will guide them
and lead them beside springs of water.
God is a God of restoration. It is amazing the supernatural changes that are wrought because of our human belief in an immortal and holy God. There is a specific area of my life where I beginning to see restoration.
According to the Online Etymology Dictionary, "restore" means "to rebuild, renew, repair". What a beautiful thought. Throughout this season of Lent, I have been fasting from most Internet and all secular media. I have been fasting and praying for this certain area of my life and it's amazing what God can do with our circumstances.
I am forever thankful for these things that are happening because my faith is bolstered and encouraged. I am now throwing all semblance of caution into the wind and letting Him drive. I am not my own; I belong to the One who bought me.
