Isaiah 9:7
? 4:45 AM
God had been giving me insights on things but I do not seem to understand. So I prayed to Him to show me the way of what He wants me to serve Him about. I prayed to Him that I will use the bible to seek His answers.
For the page I flip to and the first verse that catches my eye, that will be His answer for me. Thus I did it and got this verse:
"Of the increase of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David's throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of the Lord Almighty will accomplish this." -
Isaiah 9:7I do not understand this message. It seems that I need to seek guidance from a pastor or my closest friend among believers and whom brought me to church to enlighten me on what God wants me to do.
I also read the page with the number that had been shown to me all the time and found this:
A maskil of David. When he was in the cave. A prayer." I cry out loud to teh Lord; I lift up my voice to the Lord for mercy. I pour out my complaint before him; before him I tell my trouble.
When my spirit grows faint within me, it is you who know my way. In the path where I walk men have a hidden snare for me.
Look to my right and see; no-one is concerned for me. I have no refuge; no-one cares for my life.
I cry to you, O Lord; I say, "You are my refuge, my portion in the land of living."
Listen to my cry, for I am in desperate need; rescue me from those who pursue me, for they are too strong for me.
Set me free from my prison, that I may praise your name.
Then the righteous will gather about me because of your goodness to me." -
Psalm 142 1:7I pray that I will be able to understand God's words for me so that I may act according to His will. Amen.
In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
