Isaiah 62:6-7 ~ Praying God's Word



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, and steadfast in Him.  God wants faithful watchmen who will remind Him of that truth day and night.  God declared 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 Isaiah 62:6-7 over yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman.

“Lord, You have appointed me
a watchman on the wall of _____________.
All day and all night I will not keep silent.
I will remind You, LORD,
and I will take no rest for myself,
and I will give You no rest
until You establish and make them a praise in the Earth.
Because of Your name, Jesus~”
