Our Redeemer Comes

Isaiah 48:12-19  The Message

Your Progeny, Like Grains of Sand

16-19 And now, the Master, God, sends me and his Spirit
    with this Message from God,
    your Redeemer, The Holy of Israel:
“I am God, your God,
    who teaches you how to live right and well.
    I show you what to do, where to go.
If you had listened all along to what I told you,
    your life would have flowed full like a river,
    blessings rolling in like waves from the sea.
Children and grandchildren are like sand,
    your progeny like grains of sand.
There would be no end of them,
    no danger of losing touch with me.”

For Reflection 
Only God through those who preach authentically can teach us to become a righteous people.  It is our responsibility to ensure that our children are taught well.  In children taught well, we are in no danger of abandoning God.

Pray
Pray for those who teach. Pray for those who learn.  Pray that the Spirit will guide each of them into righteousness.
