Blessings of Being Able To See It

“I am the LORD,

your Holy One,

Israel’s Creator and King.

I am the LORD,

who opened a way through the waters,

making a dry path through the sea.

But forget all that—

it is nothing compared to what I am going to do.

For I am about to do something new.

See,

I have already begun!

Do you not see it?

I will make a pathway through the wilderness.

I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.”

Isaiah 43:15-17, 18-19

Blessings of Knowing The One Who Is From Eternity To Eternity

“Do not be afraid,

for I am with you…

You have been chosen to know me,

believe in me,

and understand that I alone am God.

There is no other God—

there never has been,

and there never will be.

I, yes I, 

am the LORD,

and there is no other Savior.

From eternity to eternity I am God.

No one can snatch anyone out of my hand.

No one can undo what I have done.”

Isaiah 43:5, 10-11, 13

Blessings of Listening To The Holy One of Israel

…listen to the LORD who created you…

“Do not be afraid,

for I have ransomed you.

I have called you by name;

you are mine.

When you go through deep waters,

I will be with you.

When you go through rivers of difficulty,

you will not drown.

When you walk through the fire of oppression,

you will not be burned up;

the flames will not consume you.

For I am the LORD,

your God,

the Holy One of Israel,

your Savior”

Isaiah 43:1-3

Blessings of Glorifying The LORD

Sing a new song to the LORD!

Sing his praises from the ends of the earth! 

Sing,

all you who sail the seas,

all you who live in distant coastlands.

…shout praises from the mountaintops!

Let the whole world glorify the LORD;

let it sing his praise.

The LORD will march forth like a mighty hero;

he will come out like a warrior,

full of fury.

He will shout his battle cry

and crush all his enemies.

Isaiah 42:10-13
