THAT WONDERFUL DAY

Isaiah 12:4-5 NLT 

 In that wonderful day you will sing:

“Thank the Lord! Praise his name!

Tell the nations what he has done.

Let them know how mighty he is!

Sing to the Lord, 

for he has done wonderful things.

Make known his praise around the world.

Sometimes we can be so bogged down with daily living and the circumstances we find ourselves in, that we forget we are living in that wonderful day! What wonderful day? 

V.1-3 NIV In that day you will say: “I will praise you, Lord. Although you were angry with me, your anger has turned away and you have comforted me. Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The Lord, the Lord himself, is my strength and my defense; he has become my salvation. With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation.

These verses remind us that it’s the day of our salvation. It’s the day the Lord turned His anger away from us, when He gave us the way back to Him. He gave His own Son to pay for all our sin so it could all be wiped away at the Cross. That is a wonderful day for each one of us when we accept Jesus as our Saviour!😊 

Even on difficult days it says He is the God who comforts us. He reminds us we can drink from the well of His salvation with joy because we can draw out His peace and forgiveness, His grace and favour, His mercy, His great love, whatever we need.

If we don’t draw out of His well we shall be miserable but if we do draw on it He will put His joy in our hearts. Let’s draw out of that well today and sing His praises. 

“Thank You Lord! We praise Your name! You are so merciful, so forgiving. There’s no one like You, so mighty but so loving to each one of us. We sing to You Lord, for You have done wonderful things and we make known Your praise around the world.”😊 Amen.
