Greetings to the precious saints of God, to those walking in love, living by faith, and led and taught of the Holy Spirit. Please take a moment and share this teaching as widely as possible expanding the reach of this Ministry. Thank you for sharing. The featured picture is a beautiful picture taken in New Hampshire. Remember, whatever the problem we face God wants us to talk with Him, search the Holy Scripture, find His will, decree the will of God, and do any further parts He gives as our responsibility. All is ours; we are not beggars, we have the authority in the earth, He has the Power, speak to the mountain. Then walk away, don’t keep commanding the mountain, that is a sign of unbelief, and don’t talk about the mountain. Talk about Gods’ answer to the mountain. Thank the Lord for dealing with mountain according to His Word according to your words of authority in the earth.
Now, let’s turn our attention to our primary Bible text reading from the wonderful Book of Isaiah. Remember, continue to read out loud, you are reading out loud, right?
Isaiah 52:7-10 (KJV)
7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!
8 Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when the LORD shall bring again Zion.
9 Break forth into joy, sing together, ye waste places of Jerusalem: for the LORD hath comforted his people, he hath redeemed Jerusalem.
10 The LORD hath made bare his holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God.
We are now confronted with the command to “Break forth into joy”. This command says nothing about trying, and nothing about if we feel like it. Let’s take a closer look at the word “joy” for a closer look at what the Lord is commanding us to do. This word is the Hebrew transliterated to English as pāṣaḥ meaning to break out (in joyful sound), to break (forth, forth into joy), make a loud noise according to Strong’s Talking Greek & Hebrew Dictionary, and a verb meaning to break forth in singing. It means to break out, to shout forth according to The Complete Word Study Dictionary – Old Testament. This is a time of great joy, the watchmen see it afar off spiritually in time but rejoice, break forth in joy, exuberant joy.
As I write this in October 2023 there is war in Israel but they are commanded to break forth in joy as are we the Church. There is nothing that manifests in the natural without a spiritual foundation. The wars in Israel, everywhere, have a spiritual foundation, generally evil. That is the case with Hamas and Israel. Perhaps by the time you are reading this Hamas will have been completely eliminated but Satan will raise up other enemies. However, God has a plan and peace, eternal is coming, when the Lord Himself will live in and rule from Jerusalem. There will be a new Jerusalem, O what a time that will be for the Jews and for all. We, the Church, are of the Seed of Abraham. We see as the Lord is talking through His Prophet Isaiah that the tense switches from going to happen in verse eight to already happened in verse nine. Reminds me of the following verses.
Genesis 17:5 (KJV)
5 Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee.
When God told Abram/Abraham this he had no children yet God declares it as done.
Romans 4:17 (KJV)
17 (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.
Are we following the example of our Father God and our father Abraham? Perhaps this explains the paucity of the Power of God in the modern Church. The following is all in red letters.
Mark 11:23-24 (KJV)
23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
Lord willing, I will pick up right here tomorrow. Remember, God loves you, God is good, and He cannot lie.

2 Chronicles 20:20 b (KJV)
20 … Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper.
Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 (KJV)
13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
14 For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.
