Quote from Joseph Prince

"Today some segments of Christianity are preaching a demanding Jesus, not a supplying Jesus. And don't forget the essence of grace is supply, and the essence of the law is demand."

 -Joseph Prince from his TV show "Destined to Reign".

Your Light Will Shine Like Dawn

Isaiah is my favorite book in the Bible. It is pure poetry and the promises are so elequent and call to my heart. Christ is whispering to us and drawing our hearts close to His. The promises are just to amazing to pass up!
May you feel the love of His presence as you read His Word to you.

Passage Isaiah 58:6-14:


Isn't the fast I choose:

To break the chains of wickedness,

to untie the ropes of the yoke,

to set the oppressed free,

and to tear off every yoke?

Is it not to share your bread with the hungry,

to bring the poor and homeless into your house,

to clothe the naked when you see him,

and to not ignore [a] your own flesh [and blood]?


 Then your light will appear like the dawn,

and your recovery will come quickly.

Your righteousness will go before you,

and the LORD's glory will be your rear guard.


At that time, when you call, the LORD will answer;

when you cry out, He will say: Here I am.

If you get rid of the yoke from those around you,

the finger-pointing and malicious speaking,


and if you offer yourself  to the hungry,

and satisfy the afflicted one,

then your light will shine in the darkness,

and your night will be like noonday.

The LORD will always lead you,

satisfy you in a parched land,

and strengthen your bones.

You will be like a watered garden

and like a spring whose waters never run dry.

Some of you will rebuild the ancient ruins;

you will restore the foundations laid long ago;

you will be called the repairer of broken walls,

the restorer of streets where people live.

 "If you keep from desecrating the Sabbath,

from doing whatever you want on My holy day;

if you call the Sabbath a delight,

and the holy [day] of the LORD honorable;

if you honor it, not going your own ways,

seeking your own pleasure, or talking too much;

then you will delight yourself in the LORD,

and I will make you ride over the heights of the land,

and let you enjoy the heritage of your father Jacob."

For the mouth of the LORD has spoken.
