Enlarge and Expand...!

Isaiah 54:2-8, 10, 13-14, 17 NKJV

“Enlarge the place of your tent, And let them stretch out the curtains of your dwellings; Do not spare; Lengthen your cords, And strengthen your stakes. For you shall expand to the right and to the left, And your descendants will inherit the nations, And make the desolate cities inhabited. “Do not fear, for you will not be ashamed; Neither be disgraced, for you will not be put to shame; For you will forget the shame of your youth, And will not remember the reproach of your widowhood anymore. For your Maker is your husband, The Lord of hosts is His name; And your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel; He is called the God of the whole earth. For the Lord  has called you Like a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, Like a youthful wife when you were refused,” Says your God. “For a mere moment I have forsaken you, But with great mercies I will gather you. With a little wrath I hid My face from you for a moment; But with everlasting kindness I will have mercy on you,” Says the Lord , your Redeemer. For the mountains shall depart And the hills be removed, But My kindness shall not depart from you, Nor shall My covenant of peace be removed,” Says the Lord , who has mercy on you. All your children shall  be  taught by the Lord , And great shall  be the peace of your children. In righteousness you shall be established; You shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear; And from terror, for it shall not come near you. No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord , And their righteousness is from Me,” Says the Lord .

† Shalom †......! Day #316. Do you know that you are called to enlarge and expand in everything you do? Let's pray. Father,  although we may fall a thousand times, but Lord, Your grace and mercies endures forever. It is Your grace that has saved us, and in Your grace You have forgiven us. Forgive us Lord, for we have sinned against You. Your everlasting love, kindness, grace and mercy has brought us to You again and use us as it pleases You, thank You Lord for this opportunity that You have given us again. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Greetings friends, today as we study this verse, there's a few things we can learn from this powerful verse. Let us go on.

1. Enlarge and expand.
» enlarge the place of your tent means not literally to enlarge your house or whatever. It means to enlarge your territory. Enlarge in sense of to conquer the enemies land, to conquer everything the devil has stolen from you. To continue to enlarge the works of God. For you shall EXPAND to the left and to the right. The works you do, the territories you conquered will expand and the name of the Lord shall be magnified for the Hands of the Lord has done this.

2. God upholds you.
» you may fall a thousand times, yet when you are restored, your influence will be much greater than before. When you fall do be ashamed of whatever you have to go through, but endure it and God will bring us through a process of refining, repruning, renewal in our lives. Cutting off the sinful branches that would be a hindrance. As you continue to walk with God, there will be temptations some are strong to overcome it, some a weak and easily given into temptations. Never be ashamed to admit and confess you sin before God. His grace and mercies endures forever and He is kind to forgive you sins. " But My kindness shall not depart from you, Nor shall My covenant of peace be removed."

3. In righteousness you shall be established.
» Glorify God in every ways of your life. When you get God to be involved in your life, family 👪 it is He who will make sure that your family prospers in the Lord. Growing spiritually,  pursuing the things of God and never looking back. God will establish you and your children in righteousness, which means He will teach you and your children His ways, righteousness and everything.

4. No weapons will be against you.
» You shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear; And from terror, for it shall not come near you. No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord , And their righteousness is from Me,” Says the Lord .

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
