12-03-06 Isaiah 65:16

Isaiah 65:16 (KJ21)
That he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth, and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth, because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from Mine eyes.

Isaiah 65:16 (NAS)
Because he who is blessed in the earth Shall be blessed by the God of truth; And he who swears in the earth Shall swear by the God of truth; Because the former troubles are forgotten, And because they are hidden from My sight!

Isaiah 65:16 (NIVUS)
Whoever invokes a blessing in the land will do so by the God of truth; he who takes an oath in the land will swear by the God of truth. For the past troubles will be forgotten and hidden from my eyes.

Isaiah 65:16 (NLT)
All who invoke a blessing or take an oath will do so by the God of truth. For I will put aside my anger and forget the evil of earlier days.



You have not forsaken the Lord your God, but you have embraced Him and His will for your life. And He has blessed you. However, there are times that you need more blessing. Then, you can speak forth with your own mouth the blessing that you require of God. You can call upon Adonai's favor, which He has already bestowed upon you. You can speak confidently because you know that the Lord your God is true, reliable, and faithful. He supports you, like pillars hold up the roof above them.

Your life is not like it used to be. The distress and trouble that were once yours are now forgotten. Even though the enemy had crowded you into a narrow place and had you bound, that is no longer true. You no longer care about those times that he, with hostility, pressed hard against you. Now you belong to God and He no longer remembers your former life. All that was before is permanently hidden from His eyes. The work He did in you and for you is complete.

You have been adopted into the family of God; Jesus is the first born of many brethren. As His brother you have the same rights and authority that He has. Whatever you speak or command, in His name, is the same as Yeshua Himself speaking. Whatever you ask in His name will be done for you by your Father in heaven. Therefore, do not hesitate to call forth the blessings that you need. Your words, which are firmly rooted in God's Word, are as powerful and creative as His words. And you shall see your blessing come forth speedily!
