Isaiah 63 ~ Praying God's Word


Please read Isaiah 63.
Meditate on verses 7 and 8. 

For He said, “Surely, they are My people,
sons who will not deal falsely.”
So He became their Savior.

There are two interesting time phrases in Isaiah 63:4: “the day of vengeance” and “God’s year of redemption.” Thankfully the LORD’s anger is but for a moment; His favor is for a lifetime (Psalm 30:5). Two thousand years ago, your Savior was preparing for the greatest act of lovingkindness and compassion in history; dying for your sins so you could enter into His year of redemption and not have to face His day of vengeance.
As you meditate on your Savior, thank Him that His own arm brought salvation (Isaiah 63:5). Thank Him for being your Savior (Isaiah 63:8). Thank Him for putting His Holy Spirit in the midst of you (Isaiah 63:11).
Pray Isaiah 63:7-8 over yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

“I will make mention of Your
lovingkindness and praises, LORD,
according to all that You have granted us,
and Your great goodness which You have granted
according to Your compassion
and the abundance of Your lovingkindness.
Thank You that _______ and I are Your people,
sons who will not deal falsely.
Thank You for becoming our Savior.
In Your name, Jesus~”
