Taking A Stand.

“But God, the Master, says, ‘It won’t happen. Nothing will come of it. Because the capital of Aram is Damascus and the king of Damascus is a mere man, Rezin. As for Ephraim, in sixty-five years it will be rubble, nothing left of it. The capital of Ephraim is Samaria, and the king of Samaria is the mere son of Remaliah. If you don’t take your stand on faith, you won’t have a leg to stand on.’” -Isaiah 7:7-9

We take lots of stands in this world; it seems the list of who and what we take stands on can be almost endless. Isaiah gives us a refreshing reminder here that unless our stand is with God and what He can do, we don’t have a leg stand on; no matter how good it may look from the outside or how powerful evil appears. This truth clears the muddied waters of life and allows the noise of this world to “grow strangely dim in the light of His glory and grace.”

I pray our stand is in Him today… and nothing less. Amen.
