Our God Saves.

Our God saves. Using His own Spirit, a Spirit of Life and Surety in the Father, to displace the human spirit of self that holds us prisoner. Just like Jesus wouldn’t allow ‘His Father’s House - the Holy Temple’ to be used for personal gain, status, and corruption… allowing it to remain a ‘den of thieves,’ He won’t allow our bodies, temples of the Holy Spirit’ to remain corrupted. He will throw out all that is bad within us and chase it off - turning over tables in every corner of our being… He will not leave us a slave to ourselves if we will only let Him clean house in us.

“God also says: ‘When the time’s ripe, I answer you. When victory’s due, I help you. I form you and use you to reconnect the people with me, to put the land in order, to resettle families on the ruined properties. I tell prisoners, ‘Come on out. You’re free!’ And those huddled in fear, ‘It’s all right. It’s safe now.’” -Isaiah 49:8-9

“Can plunder be retrieved from a giant, prisoners of war gotten back from a tyrant? But God says, “Even if a giant grips the plunder and a tyrant holds my people prisoner, I’m the one who’s on your side, defending your cause, rescuing your children. And your enemies, crazed and desperate, will turn on themselves, killing each other in a frenzy of self-destruction. Then everyone will know that I, God, have saved you - I, the Mighty One of Jacob.” -Isaiah 49:24-26

“Pay attention my people. Listen to me, nations. Revelation flows from me. My decisions light up the world. My deliverance arrives on the run, my salvation right on time. I’ll bring justice to the peoples. Even faraway islands will look to me and take hope in my saving power. Look up at the skies, ponder the earth under your feet. The skies will fade out like smoke, the earth will wear out like work pants, and the people will die off like flies. But my salvation will last forever, my setting-things-right will never be obsolete.” Isaiah 51:4-6

Ponder the earth under your feet… know it is all His… and He will set all things Right.
