Isaiah 62 ~ Praying Scripture

Please read Isaiah 62.

Meditate on verses 6-7.

On your walls, O Jerusalem, I have appointed watchmen;

all day and all night they will never keep silent. 

You who remind the LORD, take no rest for yourselves,

and give Him no rest until He establishes

and makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.

Isaiah 62 is a chapter for prayers warriors.  It is God’s will for people to be established (fixed aright, settled, stable, steadfast) in Him.  God wants faithful watchmen who will remind Him of that truth day and night.  God declares in Ezekiel 22:30-31, “I searched for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap before Me for the land, so that I would not destroy it, but I found no one.  Thus I have poured out My indignation on them; I have consumed them with the fire of My wrath; their way I have brought upon their heads.”

Do your prayers make a difference in the lives of those you love?  God says they do.  In fact He wants you to constantly remind Him about those you want Him to establish, and He is not pleased when no one is willing to be that watchman for others. Do not grow weary and lose heart.  It is God’s will for your family to be established in Him.  It is God’s will for you to pray it into reality.

Pray 1 Thessalonians 3:13 over someone the LORD needs to establish.  Pray it as a watchman who refuses to rest until the LORD does it.

“Establish _______________’s heart without blame in holiness before You,

God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all His saints.”
