Covenant of Peace

While reading in IS. the 54th chapter the other day, Rob and I were really captured by some scripture that just confirms over and over what we say about how God does not bring harm or misery on you, that He will only bring good to you.

IS 54 v 9-10...."For this is like the waters of Noah to Me, For as I have sworn that the waters of Noah would no longer cover the earth, so have I sworn that I would not be angry with you, nor rebuke you. For the mountains shall depart and the hills be removed, but My kindness shall not depart from you, nor shall My covenant of peace be removed," says the Lord, who has mercy on you....

IS 54 v 13-15....All your children shall be taught by the LORD, and great shall be the peace of your children. In righteousness you shall be established, you shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear; and from terror, for it shall not come near you. Indeed they shall surely assemble, but not because of Me. Whoever assembles against you shall fall for your sake.....

IS 54 v 17.....No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you in judgment you shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is from ME," says the LORD.....

WHoo Hoo, do you get what this is saying? Do you see what your inheritance from the Lord is? You are the righteousness of the Lord. He says so right here. He says your enemies don't stand a chance against you. Your enemies, being in the form of sin, sickness, or whatever. He says right here that He is not the one that assembles against you, and that no matter what they throw at you, they shall not prosper. And this part we all need to pay close attention to, because this speaks to us as well, "every tongue which rises against you in judgment you shall condemn" be very careful that you do not speak against one of God's children judging them because you will be condemned. You see this is a two way street, we do not just get all the good things God has for us, we also must be obedient to what He says. And when we are, He says His covenant of Peace will always be there with us. That is so good, it just about makes me jump up out of this chair. You do not have to be in turmoil over anything, You have the peace of God with you always, turn to Him and let His peace comfort you. AMEN Isaiah is such a great book, I would encourage each of you to read it this month and receive revelation from it, about who God really is to you and what HE wants to do for each of you.
