KEY VERSES
Isaiah 3:10, KJV
God decided to press the people with hardship to the extent that they would be going about naked. And, if they saw someone wearing clothes, they would approach the person and say,
"You have clothing, you can be our ruler." But the person would retort: I cannot cure you; do not make me a ruler over you."
But, even in such downcast, shameful and challenging scenario, the Lord declared, "Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with them; for they shall eat the fruit of their doings." Dearly beloved, are you saved from sin and all unclean living?
Then, you are that righteous person God is talking about today. Look up with faith to heaven. It shall be well with you. You will eat the fruit of your labour.
It may not look like it today but be assured that both the righteous and the wicked can never go unrewarded.
CONTROLLING THOUGHTS
Trying times often provide opportunities for the righteous to be distinguished and favoured.
PRAYER
Oh Lord, I know that your word is true. Let it manifest in my life today.

Isaiah 3:10, KJV
As diamonds never cease to sparkle, so shall nothing ever remove the glory of God from the righteous. Our text for today presents a dreary situation that faced the ancient kingdom of Judah characterized by an extreme shortage of food, water and even quality of human beings.
God decided to press the people with hardship to the extent that they would be going about naked. And, if they saw someone wearing clothes, they would approach the person and say,
"You have clothing, you can be our ruler." But the person would retort: I cannot cure you; do not make me a ruler over you."
But, even in such downcast, shameful and challenging scenario, the Lord declared, "Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with them; for they shall eat the fruit of their doings." Dearly beloved, are you saved from sin and all unclean living?
Then, you are that righteous person God is talking about today. Look up with faith to heaven. It shall be well with you. You will eat the fruit of your labour.
It may not look like it today but be assured that both the righteous and the wicked can never go unrewarded.
The tone of this promise is that by and large the righteous will never lose out. He will be blessed and the generations after him. So keep hope alive.
