30-01: Isiah 12

I love this text from Isiah 12

AND IN that day you will say, I will give thanks to You, O Lord; for though You were angry with me, Your anger has turned away, and You comfort me. Behold, God, my salvation! I will trust and not be afraid, for the Lord God is my strength and song; yes, He has become my salvation. Therefore with joy will you draw water from the wells of salvation. And in that day you will say, Give thanks to the Lord, call upon His name and by means of His name [in solemn entreaty]; declare and make known His deeds among the peoples of the earth, proclaim that His name is exalted!

Sing praises to the Lord, for He has done excellent things [gloriously]; let this be made known to all the earth. Cry aloud and shout joyfully, you women and inhabitants of Zion, for great in your midst is the Holy One of Israel.

Has that day come.. that you went to the well.. Did you have a snip of that water of the well of salvation?. I have drank the cup of salvation of His forgiveness, i was buried in the water at baptism and arose to new life....

And now.. .and now i want to tell everybody of the experience i had. I want to tell everybody of the experience, i am having right now.. right now at this moment. Even at times when i feel a bit down, a bit downcast.. still i can rejoice cause i have found the well of true life. I have found a place where my thirst has been satisfied.

How can anyone have this kind of experience and not declare His love and mercy to all mankind. That's why i love this advice from the book of Isiah... Give thanks to the Lord, call upon His name and by means of His name [in solemn entreaty]; declare and make known His deeds among the peoples of the earth, proclaim that His name is exalted!

That day has come... to tell our friends and neighbours of the deeds of our God and King. The day has come.. to tell your friends at work or school.. that He's name is truly and well exalted.

Tell them that their thrist for true water can be stilled. Tell them that their faults can truly be forgiven.


It's time to pray and rejoice... cause the Holy One will never your and mine side
