stand

“I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say, ‘My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please.’ … What I have said, that I will bring about; what I have planned, that I will do.” – Isaiah 46:10, 11)

This is one of the passages of scripture I stood on during the restoration of my marriage. When doubt began to rise. When what was in front of me looked nothing like restoration. When the lie crept in that it was on my shoulders to fix this thing, to somehow make everything right again.

But it’s not just me. We all have lives that are being taken from destruction to restoration, if we know Jesus.  And we all have days of doubts and days of lies. Days when it feels like it’s all on us.

Let today be a day of truth. Regardless of what our eyes are seeing, we are in the process of restoration. Our lives are full of His purposes and His plans. He will do what He said He would do.

God always keeps His word.

The same truth that should cause those who refuse Him to tremble, can be for us a firm place to stand.
