Scripture Isaiah 13:11 “I will punish the world for its evil, And the wicked for their iniquity; I will halt the arrogance of the proud, And will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.

Observation: The world has become a cesspool of evil and every day it gets worse. The world rejects God and does evil and sin is celebrated. The Bible tells of the end of this world that He created and all of it is coming to pass just like His word says. We’re not sure when the end will come, but we do now it is coming. Our hope is not in this place however but in the new heavens and earth that are being prepared for those who love the Lord. There will be sorrow at the end of this world but the rejoicing of the new will overwhelm the sorrow.

Application: I know how the story end and I need to be vigilant to tell others no matter what the cost. I have only one job and that is to spread the gospel so more of God’s children will enter into His kingdom and be part of the eternal family.

Prayer: My Lord only you know the time. Use me please to spread the word of your second coming and put the words in my mouth that will touch those that don’t know you. I’m your servant use me as you desire.

Scripture Isaiah 12:4 And in that day you will say: “Praise the LORD, call upon His name; Declare His deeds among the peoples, Make mention that His name is exalted.

Observation: I pray and read God’s word every day, but do I praise Him before others? No, I praise my Lord at church with everyone else, where it’s safe and without conflict. I’ll where Christian T-shirts and walk around in public, but I don’t mention His name at work or in front of those that don’t know His awesome deeds.

Application: I need to find opportunities to share with others all that God has done for me. He has given me a testimony and reason to be thankful for all His many blessings and I’ve been silent too long. Get back involved in missionary trips and find other ways to reach others, so they may know the love of God.

Prayer: My Lord I just want to thank you and tell you that I love you and want to be a bigger part in reaching those in your name. Help me not to be silent any longer but to be a voice for you.
