Revelation of the Word:

THEME: SOIL

Isaiah 61:11 NIV

“For as the soil makes the sprout come up and a garden causes seeds to grow, so the Sovereign Lord will make righteousness and praise spring up before all nations.”

INSIGHT

–Prophet Isaiah uses the analogy of nature to describe the work of God in bringing about righteousness and praise. Just as seeds grow in fertile soil, so too will God’s plans for salvation and restoration come to fruition in due time. The imagery of the soil and seeds growing represents the natural, inevitable work of God in bringing righteousness and justice to the world. Righteousness refers to the moral and spiritual renewal that God will bring to His people and to the world. The restoration of Israel is not just about physical return but about a deep transformation where people live according to God’s ways. Praise on the other hand signifies the joyful response to this renewal. As God works to restore His people, the nations will witness it and offer praise to God. Together, righteousness and praise form a picture of spiritual flourishing, where lives are aligned with God’s justice and hearts overflow with worship.

PRAYER

Lord You are Good and Your mercies endures forever. Lord You are Holy and Mighty, You are awesome in wonder. Your Righteousness is everlasting. We worship You and give You praise. Father You made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become Your righteousness God. Dear God You say in Your word that the righteous have many troubles, but You Lord deliver him from them all. May You deliver us dear Lord Jesus from all our troubles for Your name’s sake. May You forgive us all our sins and trespasses, and wash us with Your precious blood merciful Savior. May You search us Oh Lord and know our hearts, test us and know our anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in us and lead us in the way everlasting. May You teach us and help us to seek first Your kingdom and righteousness, and all things You will add unto us. May You grant success and victory to all those who are undertaking their final exam dear Lord Jesus. May You heal and restore all those who are sick and suffering among us. May You guide our leaders, all people and our nation in righteousness that we may fear You and always do Your will. May You grant the gift of salvation to all our children and generations dear Jesus. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit,  be with us now and forever more. Amen
