"See, my servant shall prosper, he shall be raised high and greatly exalted. Even as many were amazed at him— so marred were his features, beyond that of mortals his appearance, beyond that of human beings— So shall he startle many nations, kings shall stand speechless; For those who have not been told shall see, those who have not heard shall ponder it." Isaiah 52:13-15
Isaiah 52:13-15 Holy Vision. "Therefore, you shall love the LORD, your God, with your whole heart, and with your whole being, and with your whole strength." Deuteronomy 6:5
Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4b
Isaiah 52:13-15 Holy Vision. "Therefore, you shall love the LORD, your God, with your whole heart, and with your whole being, and with your whole strength." Deuteronomy 6:5
What happens when you live this verse Deuteronomy 6:5? Isaiah shows us in his inspired words, you get holy vision. My thoughts turn to a man in relationship with his Father in Heaven, the Holy One. He is living in covenant union with God and in turn God is living with him. "Those who have not been told shall see, those who have not heard shall ponder it." Is this Isaiah telling us how truth was revealed to Him? Explain how Isaiah depicts Jesus so vividly in three verses? What was he seeing to speak to the Son of Man raised up and kings left speechless? I conclude it is holy vision, something that is available to each of us with a consistent prayer life with focus on the Holy One. Ponder Isaiah's words with holy vision.
What is God saying to me:
Dear Father, I gaze upon You this morning with the luxury of words to describe who You are and how You live in relationship with those that love You, I Am thankful Father for having this desire. I may not always get it right Lord but I know you are always by my side speaking through others, given me insight into situations and leading me when I am in Union with you. I ask for prayers this morning for our country that is being tormented with evil, You know the truth Father and if anything has been done in the darkness shed light upon it. But no matter the outcome, Your faithful will heed Your voice. Prayers for a great day, for a day filled with peace and understanding. Watch over our comings and goings and keep us pointed towards You always, I ask this in Jesus name, Amen.
Mary, Comfort of the Afflicted, Pray for us.
St Joesph, Protector of the Family, Pray for us.
Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4b
