Episode 288: Isaiah 9

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Isaiah 9

Father, I thank you that my time of darkness and despair is over. My life is filled with your glory. I used to walk in darkness, but now I see your light. Your light shines over me, even when I am walking through the valley of the shadow of death. 

My days are filled with joy, like that of reapers when harvest time has come. 

Father, you broke the chains that had me bound, and the whip that scourged me. I live in glorious days of your peace. 

Why? Because a baby was born. Your son, given to the world. He is Wonderful, Counselor, the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace. 

His ever-expanding, peaceful government will never end. He rules with perfect fairness and justice from his throne. He has brought justice, and offers peace to all who will accept it. 

Father, you are the God of angel armies, and you dedicated yourself to finding a way to reconcile me back to you. There is nothing for me to brag about, because this was a gift from you, Father. You showed me the error of my ways, and I repented and turned to you. 

I do not follow the leaders of this world, their paths lead only to ruin. You have no joy in the wicked, and when the final judgement day comes, you will show them no mercy. You will burn up all this wickedness in a great cleansing fire that will purify and restore the earth. 

But I have been redeemed. Purchased from my old lord and set free. Free to live in the light of your love for all eternity. 

So be it.

Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.
