Isaiah 53-56; 2 Peter 2

“Sing O’Barren” Isaiah 54:1
In this passage Israel’s captivity is compared to a barren woman, which was an object of scorn in that culture. However the command to sing in the face of such a state, was to put God in His rightful place in order to see His miraculous provision. Today, let us examine our perspective and be willing proclaim His greatness. Truly the Lord has a master plan for each one of us even in the middle of difficult times. Often during tough times, there can be a tendency to be more conservative with our resources. Yet, the following scripture encourages us to get out of our comfort zone and make room.

“Enlarge the place of your tent, and let them stretch out the curtains of your dwellings; Do not spare; Lengthen your cords, and strengthen your stakes.” Isaiah 54:2
This amplifies this truth, as an act of faith, even yet barren, to make room for God’s expansion. Let us determine to be ready for God’s expansion in our circle of influence. Let’s allow our faith grow and place our total trust on Him who is faithful in keeping His promises.
Be encouraged by this quote from Corrie Ten Boom, a Dutch Christian Holocaust survivor who helped many Jews escape the Nazis during WW II.
"Faith sees the invisible, believes the unbelievable, and receives the impossible."
