Instead of your
shame you will receive a double portion, and instead of disgrace you will
rejoice in your inheritance.
And so you will inherit a double portion in your land, and everlasting joy will be yours.
And so you will inherit a double portion in your land, and everlasting joy will be yours.
عوضا عن خزيكم
ضعفان وعوضا عن الخجل يبتهجون بنصيبهم. لذلك يرثون في ارضهم ضعفين. بهجة ابدية
تكون لهم.
Isaiah 61:7
God sent
these promises and words of encouragement to His people when they were going
through a very difficult time in the Old Testament.
The question
I asked myself was: do these words apply to us; the believers in His Son and
our Redeemer; today? Do they apply to the Christians who are persecuted and
killed because of their faith all over the world today? Do these words apply
today to any Christian believer who is facing personal challenges?
I believe
they do because our Lord is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. God is
always faithful to His Word. Let us rejoice then because our God will give us
restoration and make all things better above and beyond our expectations.
“We
know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who
are the called according to His purpose.”
28 ونحن نعلم ان كل الاشياء تعمل معا
للخير للذين يحبون الله الذين هم مدعوون حسب قصده.
Romans 8:28
I invite you to repeat the following prayer for yourself:
Abba
Father, thank You for Your abundant blessings and
deep inseparable love. Thank You for Your faithfulness and wisdom. Abba, please
strengthen my faith and help me to stay obedient to You so that I can receive
what You promised as a double portion of blessings for my challenges in every
area of my life. O’Lord guide and direct my steps to Your everlasting joy. Lord
I pray for all The Christian Believers in the world who are suffering because
of their faith. Let all things work together for good for them and grant them a
double portion of peace and joy. In Jesus’ name I pray. To Him be the power,
the glory, the majesty, the blessings, and the dominion forever and ever, Amen.
Jesus loves you,
In Him,
Wagdi Henein
