Go Tell It On the Mountain
Isaiah 40:1-11
Comfort, O comfort my people, says your God. Speak tenderly to
Jerusalem, and cry to her that she has served her term, that her penalty is
paid, that she has received from the Lord’s hand double for all her sins.
A voice cries out: “In the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord, make
straight in the desert a highway for our God. Every valley shall be lifted up,
and every mountain and hill be made low; the uneven ground shall become level,
and the rough places a plain. Then the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and
all people shall see it together, for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.” A
voice says, “Cry out!” And I said, “What shall I cry?” All people are grass,
their constancy is like the flower of the field. The grass withers, the flower
fades, when the breath of the Lord blows upon it; surely the people are grass.
"The grass
withers, the flower fades; but the word of our God will stand forever."
Get you up to a high mountain, O Zion, herald of good tidings; lift up
your voice with strength, O Jerusalem, herald of good tidings, lift it up, do
not fear; say to the cities of Judah, “Here is your God!” See, the Lord God
comes with might, and his arm rules for him; his reward is with him, and his
recompense before him. He will feed his flock like a shepherd; he will gather
the lambs in his arms, and carry them in his bosom, and gently lead the mother
sheep.
God says:
"Find
comfort my children because your penalty has been paid for by Christ. Now you
can come directly to Me where everyone is equal in My eyes. My infinite and
eternal glory will be revealed. You are frail like grass and flowers but know
that ..."
"The
grass withers, the flower fades; but My word will stand forever."
"So,
speak out with courage, do not fear; tell everyone that the Lord Our God is
Mighty and He rules over this Universe. He brings you many blessings. He will
find you and He will care for you in His powerful and loving embrace."
Begin to experience the Power and the Love of God. You will not be able
to keep this to yourself. You will run to tell everyone the Good News … that God is calling them to embrace them and to fill them with His love and with His multitude of blessings.
“Til He appeared and the soul found it’s
worth.”
