A Great Road

Isaiah 34 - 35, Micah 2 - 5

I loved chapter 35, but read these verses beginning with 8

And a great road will go through the once deserted land.

It will be named the Highway of Holiness.

Evil minded people will never travel on it.

It will be only for those who walk in God's ways;

fools will never walk there.

Lions will not lurk along its course,

nor any other ferocious beasts.

There will be no other dangers.

Only the redeemed will walk on it.

Those who have been ransomed by the LORD will return.

They will enter Jerusalem singing,

crowned with everlasting joy.

Sorrow and mourning will disappear,

and they will be filled with joy and gladness.

Nothing will be lurking to get us!  The LORD paid the price for all of us to be filled with joy and gladness!

Listen to these words from Micah 2:12-13

"Someday, O Israel, I will gather you; 

I will gather the remnant who are left.

I will bring you together again like sheep in a pen,

like a flock in its pasture.

Yes, your land will again 

be filled with noisy crowds!

Your leader will break out

and lead you out of exile,

out through the gates of the enemy cities,

back to your own land.

Your king will lead you;

the LORD himself will guide you."

Jesus will break through every obstacle to restore us and lead us!

So much hope!  Hope found only with the LORD!

Share hope today!

Sweet blessings,
