19 Jan 2015; Isa 8:1-10
When the enemy of Judah raise against her - from Syria and Israel, The Lord through Isiah prophesied - God is with us - Immanuel. Not once but twice in the short passage.
First in verse 8, then in verse 10.
Surely God is with Judah. If God is for us, what then can be against us. To add to that assurance, God gave a sign, a sign of a child. Before the child reaches certain age, a sign of something will occur. Likewise a sign of the birth of a child through a virgin.
Immanuel - where then is God in our midst? Where is my God in my house and at my work place?
God I invite you, your presence to be in our midst. Let peace and security, provision and love be assured in our family, among the children and at our work place.
