Isaiah 62 - 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.

Today marks the 116th devotional in The Watchman on the Wall, 116 days of tirelessly praying for God to establish you and yours.  How are you doing?  Are you remaining steadfast in prayer?  Are you talking to God day and night?  Is your faith in your faithful God increasing? 

On day 116, please read Psalm 116.  It starts like this:

I love the LORD, because He hears my voice and my supplications. 
Because He has inclined His ear to me;
therefore, I shall call upon Him as long as I live.

Do not grow weary and lose heart!  As you continually remind the LORD of those He needs to establish, He continually hears your voice; He hears your cry.  Spend this day loving Jesus because He hears you.  Because He hears you, recommit to call upon Him as long as you live.

Pray Psalm 116:1-2, 5-9, 12-13 as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

“I love You, LORD, because you hear
my voice and my supplications. 
You have inclined Your ear to me;
therefore, I shall call upon You as long as I live.
Gracious are You, LORD, and righteous.
Yes, God, You are compassionate.
You preserve the simple.
I was brought low, and You saved me.
Return to your rest, O my soul,
for the LORD has dealt bountifully with you.
For You have rescued my soul from death,
my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling. 
I shall walk before You, LORD, in the land of the living.
What shall I render to You, LORD,
for all Your benefits toward me?
I shall lift up the cup of salvation
and continue to call on Your name, LORD.”
