Morning by Morning, August 27 - “I Will Save Your Children”
Good morning, Lord Jesus. Be high and lifted up -- here in my heart and every moment of my day. ...
With all the world, what’s going on in Afghanistan is heavy on my heart this morning. My son is there with the Army. My brothers and sisters in Christ are there with the missionaries and the martyrs and the underground Church. My fellow human beings who desperately need Your protection, Your advocacy, Your mercy and hope are there. And those are there who desperately need to know the salvation of the One True God, who is a God of love, not terror; a God of freedom, not bondage; a God of good, not evil.
As I listen for the leading of Your Spirit, this Word comes to mind:
“This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
‘See, I will give a signal to the godless nations.
They will carry your little sons back to you in their arms;
they will bring your daughters on their shoulders.
Kings and queens will serve you
and care for all your needs.
They will bow to the earth before you
and lick the dust from your feet.
Then you will know that I am the Lord.
Those who trust in Me will never be put to shame.’
Who can snatch the plunder of war from the hands of a warrior?
Who can demand that a tyrant let his captives go?
But the Lord says,
‘The captives of warriors will be released,
and the plunder of tyrants will be retrieved.
For I will fight those who fight you,
and I will save your children’” (Isaiah 49:22-25 NLT).
“For I will contend with him who contends with you, and I will save your children” (v. 25 NKJV).
Our salvation is not in our government; our salvation is in You. Our salvation is not in military might or world opinion; our salvation is in You. And when we look to You, when we trust in You, You fight with those who fight with us; You contend with those who contend with us; and You save our children.
There’s eternal salvation. And there’s also present salvation in our present circumstances. And right now, I’m praying for both.
When we see You move in the ways that only You can move, when we see You do what only You can do, “All the world will know that (You), the Lord, (are our) Savior and (our) Redeemer, the Mighty One of Israel” (v. 26). Lord, let it be so. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

My friend, may you be secure in your faith in the One who fights for you and all you love, the One who's not willing that any should perish but all to come to repentance and the knowledge of Him and His truth, in Jesus' name. Be free from fear and full of faith as you love Him and trust Him through all we go through in this world. Please pray the same for me. God bless you, my friend!
