Here is an interesting connection the Holy Spirit just made for me. Deuteronomy 33:27 says, “The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms…” There was no intercessor for the Lord. Isaiah 59:16 says, “…therefore His own arm brought salvation for Him; and His own righteousness, it sustained Him.”
He is our Sustainer in our trials through His righteousness. Hebrews 12:11 Amplified says, “For the time being no discipline brings joy, but seems grievous and painful; but afterwards it yields a peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it (a harvest of fruit which consists in righteousness — in conformity to God’s will in purpose, thought, and action…)”
Isaiah 32:17 says that the work of and effect of righteousness is peace, quietness, and confidence. He in our Intercessor. He undergirds and sustains us in His righteousness.
My dear friend just lost her job yesterday, was divorced last year. I’m going to comfort her today. Only God could have orchestrated this message for me to share with her. I love you Marilyn. Your obedience to, and love of our Father is refreshing. I am convinced that God is raising up a quiet army, not necessarily in the limelight, that He is using to shed light on the schemes of the enemy.
Please continue your calling.
Love you sister😍😍
