Isaiah 10:16,17

Isaiah 10:16,17 (KJV)
16 Therefore shall the Lord, the Lord of hosts, send among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory he shall kindle a burning like the burning of a fire.
17 And the light of Israel shall be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame: and it shall burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day;

Today’s Prayer (01/15/2019)

Lord, it is a blessing to come unto You and to feel of Your glorious light. I now know how great it is to have Your presence with me, that I might know Your will and do what is right. Because You are with me, I am longer lifted up in my own pride but walk in the things that You lead me in. I know from the past that my pride will only let me down. I could only do things on my own for so long until things crashed down upon me. It was in my unbelief that Your light was fearful. I could not stand it, for it pierced me to the very core. Instead of faith, fear grew until I was overcome by fear. It was in this brokenness that I wished that my sins would be forgiven. So I came unto You for mercy. I knew that I had done some serious crimes in Your sight, including adultery and my pornography addiction, and didn’t think that You could ever forgive me. However, as I called upon Your Name, everything changed. I couldn’t believe it, as my sins, though they were great, were forgiven. Mercy, that I did not think was possible, was given to me freely. In this moment, Your presence came over me and I was consumed with love and joy. Thank You Lord for allowing Your light to shine through me. I am changed because of Your love for me. I no longer fear death and the judgement but look forward to it. Surely, no one is like You, God. You are the God who saves. I love You so much and am so blessed to have You in my life. All praises and glory to Your Name. Amen.

God’s Light Is Piercing

As the righteous enjoy being in the light of Jesus, the wicked do not want anything to do with it. It actually causes them to fear and be anxious.
