9 Feb 2015; Isa 10:20-34

Be not afraid of the enemies Assyrian - for they were great in numbers but then will be few - only a remnants will be left.

These unfortunately was not referring to the Assyrian but the Israelite. Once they were many, but now few.

The once great, the Lord will brought them down. For the Assyrians, but few - none will be left. The race, the people of Assyria - will be no more. But the people of Israel continue till this day.

Here the Lord reminds of the love, the covenant he promise. Who do you choose? Not that you have chosen, but the Lord choose who to preserve and who to complete the destruction.

Therefore I pray that the Lord chose this family to be the salt and the light for the world around us. To the people around our interactions and our workplace.

I pray for myself to be able to trust in the covenant love that what the Lord started, let no one destroy. Therefore,
In that day the remnant of Israel and the survivors of the house of Jacob will no more lean on him who struck them, but will lean on the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, in truth. (Isaiah 10:20 ESV)
lean on and trust in the Lord
