Episode 320: Isaiah 60

Today's prayer meditation is on Isaiah 60

I arise and let my light shine for all to see. For your glory has risen to shine on me. Though much of the world is covered in darkness that is as black as night, your glory has arisen and appears over me. Others will see your light and be drawn to its radiance. The whole world will be caught up in this brand new thing you are doing. 

I have come home. My eyes shine and my heart thrills with joy. 

When the Messiah was born, merchants from around the world came. It wasn't just three wisemen bearing small gifts. They brought the wealth of many lands on the backs of vast caravans of camels. The people of Sheba brought gold and frankincense as they came to worship my Lord and King. 

Like clouds in the sky, or doves flying to their nests, your people are coming home, carrying their silver and gold.

I honor you, Father. You are the Holy One. You have drenched me with splendor. 

You have rebuilt the ruins of my life, ruined by my persistent wrongdoing. But you have restored me. Through your grace and mercy, you have showered me with your favor because of your love for me. 

Though I was once despised and hated, you have made me beautiful forever. Joy spills over to all generations. You satisfy my every need, as though I were a nursing child. You are Jehovah Jireh, the many breasted one. You are always with me.

You are my Savior and my Redeemer, you are the Mighty One. You have exchanged my bronze for gold, and my iron for silver, my wood for bronze and my stones for iron. 

I am led by peace and ruled by righteousness. Salvation surrounds me like city walls. And your praise is always on my lips.

You are my everlasting light and my glory. You are all the light I will ever need. You are the sun that never sets and the moon that is never eclipsed in shadow. I will bask in your eternal light and splendor forever. Never again will I suffer the dark night of despair and gloom of mourning. 

You have made me righteous. You have planted me with your own hands. You tend me and take pride in my growing. And I live to bring you glory.

So be it.

Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.
