Isaiah 52:12-15

'....For the Lord will go before you, the God of Israel will be your rear guard. See, my servant (Jesus Christ) will act wisely; He will be raised and lifted up and highly exalted.........so will he sprinkle many nations, and kings will shut their mouths because of him"

Oh the glory of the Messiah!  Many of the most hardened unbelievers will be struck by conviction. Christ is Wisdom itself. Those that saw him said: never was sorrow like His sorrow. But God highly exalted Christ, having shed his blood for sinners. May all opposers see the wisdom of ceasing from their opposition, and be made partakers of the blood of sprinkling, and the baptism of the Holy Ghost.

God is speaking that His justice will become a light to the nations. His righteousness draws near speedily, His salvation is on the way, and His arm will bring justice to the nations. The islands (including Vancouver Island) will look to Him and wait in hope for His arm.

So, dear ones, lift up your eyes to the heavens. Do not fear the reproach of men, or be terrified by their insults. God's righteousness will last forever, His salvation through all generations!! WAKE UP and clothe yourself with strength, because gladness and joy will overtake us and sorrow and sighing will flee away......

The Lord has put the word "justice" on my heart for 2008. I pray that scriptures about justice and truth speak to our hearts for the new year 2008.  As I know some of you have been buffeted by the storms of life in 2007 as I have, I believe that new doors will open and that kings (those that 'appear' to wield power over us) will shut their mouths because of HIM, our MESSIAH.

BE OF GOOD COURAGE, for the Lord will go before you and He will be your rearguard!!
