Fighting the Monday Feeling

 
Martin Cole | 3 Oct 2011
As the rain and the snow
come down from heaven,
and do not return to it
without watering the earth
and making it bud and flourish,
so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater,
so is my word that goes out from my mouth:
It will not return to me empty,
but will accomplish what I desire
and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.
You will go out in joy
and be led forth in peace;
the mountains and hills
will burst into song before you,
and all the trees of the field
will clap their hands.

(Isaiah 55 v 10-12)

Like rain, God’s word comes from Him and transforms things. His word is His chosen way of achieving His purposes. So His word to the world to “come to him” will be heard. And for those who respond, the future looks bright — a new world, with God’s curse gone. And a people from all over the globe, with Jesus leading them.
