MADE BY GOD. Isa.44:2 The Lord is building a Temple for Himself.
He will occupy that building eternally. Because He has made it, it will be a
work of perfection, pure, holy and manifesting His righteousness. 1 Cor. 3:16 You are the living temple of the living God. His promise is, that He will inhabit His people. He will walk in them, {the secret of the Christian life}, If He is dwelling within and He is walking in us, then we will walk like Him. This would eliminate any problems of living for Christ. Living His life
would be as natural as life itself. Eph. 2:10 The work of His creation continues daily and will until the last of His NEW CREATION is finished.
FEAR NOT. Isa. 44:2 We have come to an age of fear. One of the signs of the end of the age is that of the hearts of men failing them for fear for the things of the future. The Lord is the help {surround, protect or aid} of His people. He is a very present help in a time of need. Ps. 46:5. This sounds like the Bride. The Lord in the midst. His presence brings confidence and assurance. She is not shaken by the things that come against her. She knows that her help originates with the Lord. Isa. 41:10 I am with thee, what a promise, He will stand with His own and deliver them in a time of trouble. He is our source of strength. When all else fails He is there to bring His people through every situation. v.11 The enemy, incensed and grossly angry, to be confused, ashamed and defeated. No weapon formed against His church can prosper. The enemy to be made as nothing and to perish. We are more than conquerors through Him who loved us and gave Himself for us. The promises of His Word are yea and amen. When the spirit of the world is fear, the spirit of the people of the Lord is quietness, confidence and blessings from on high.
THE THIRSTY. Isa. 44:3 To be thirsty is a requisite. Without the strongest of desires one will not achieve the desired goal, particularly in the realm of Spiritual accomplishments. Mt. 5:6 Jesus promised satisfaction to those who display spiritually, that which is an every day experience to the natural man. To hunger after the Lord and the things of the Lord is to search His Word. Some do not have much of an appetite for the Word, therefore become bulimic Christians. Thirst is in the realm of the working of the Spirit of God in our lives. To thirst and hunger after the Lord will create a good balance of Word and Spirit in our lives. This makes for strong Christian lives. John 7:37 It was the last day, that great day of the feast. The day of Atonement. This is the one feast that has not yet been made a living experience to the church of the Lord. It will be a part of the last day revival and the preparation of the Bride of Christ. The invitation is to those who thirst. To those who have a deep longing, a heart felt cry to receive all that the Lord has promised to His people. They will be blest with that overflowing, completely satisfying fullness of the Spirit, for the Lord will thoroughly occupy His Temple with the abundance of Himself.
