Turn To His Book

Isaiah 1:2-6


Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth!
For the Lord has spoken:
“I have nourished and brought up children,
And they have rebelled against Me;
³ The ox knows its owner
And the donkey its master’s crib;
But Israel does not know,
My people do not consider.”

⁴ Alas, sinful nation,
A people laden with iniquity,
A brood of evildoers,
Children who are corrupters!
They have forsaken the Lord,
They have provoked to anger
The Holy One of Israel,
They have turned away backward.

⁵ Why should you be stricken again?
You will revolt more and more.
The whole head is sick,
And the whole heart faints.
⁶ From the sole of the foot even to the head,
There is no soundness in it,
But wounds and bruises and putrefying sores;
They have not been closed or bound up,
Or soothed with ointment.

(Titus 2:11-12) "For the grace of God has been revealed, bringing salvation to all people.  And we are instructed to turn from godless living and sinful pleasures.  We should live in this evil world with wisdom, righteousness, and devotion to God."  Verse 2 says, "Hear, O heavens, and give ear O earth!  For the Lord has spoken:  I have nourished and brought up children, and they rebel against Me."  God says, He has given us breath and life, and still we haven't taken the time to know Him.  Until we form a love in our heart we'll never learn God or do His will.  God says all through His word, it is not about us, but about Him.  He says His name should be continually coming out of our mouths from sun up to sun down.  It is only because of His enormous love that He hasn't let satan or He Himself destroy us. (Psalm 50:22-23)  "Now consider this, you who forget God, Lest I tear you in pieces, And there be none to deliver: ²³ Whoever offers praise glorifies Me; And to him who orders his conduct aright I will show the salvation of God.”  We're turning around in circles looking for pleasures in all the wrong places.  We continually go from agony to pain, back to agony.  God says we are sick from head to toe, and our wounds, bruises, and putrefying sores have not been closed or soothed with ointment from His love.  The bible says the longer we run from His truth and our ordained missions the more corrupt we'll become toward one another.  Let God shower us with His love, signs, wonders, and miracles.  Turn to His Book.

(Proverbs 3:5-6)  "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; ⁶ In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths."

(John 17:20-23)  "I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word; ²¹ that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. ²² And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one: ²³ I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me."

Blessings to you and our Lord as we gather together as one,
