4-6-08 Isaiah 49:8 On the Day of Salvation the Lord Will Help You.‏

Isaiah 49:8 (NAS)
Thus says the LORD, "In a favorable time I have answered You, And in a day of salvation I have helped You; And I will keep You and give You for a covenant of the people, To restore the land, to make them inherit the desolate heritages;
Isaiah 49:8 (NLT)
This is what the LORD says: "At just the right time, I will respond to you. On the day of salvation, I will help you. I will give you as a token and pledge to Israel. This will prove that I will reestablish the land of Israel and reassign it to its own people again.

When Yeshua (Jesus), the Son of God, satisfied your debt you were then able to receive the favor of God. He showed you that now you were acceptable to Him; He delighted and took pleasure in you. He desired a relationship with you so much that He was willing to sacrifice His finest and His best for you. He has pardoned you and reconciled you to Himself. He has also set His affection and approval on you and your life.

Now you know that the Lord God gives heed to you. He pays attention to your prayers and responds by speaking His word into your life. The answer, that He gives you, will always lift you up and cause you to shout, sing, testify, and bear witness to Adonai's goodness. You know that when the heat was on, Almighty God sovereignly brought you the salvation, deliverance, and victory that you needed. Suddenly, you were surrounded and protected by the presence of the Lord. You are certain of His help and aid at all times.

Adonai guards and protects you, maintaining your life. He hides and conceals you from your enemies and He always preserves you. He has a special plan for your life. He has given you to others to fulfill His covenant in their lives. He has selected you to feed the sheep of His flock because you are cleansed, pure, polished, and bright. He dispatches you to create new life in those who are dead in different tribes or nations.

Through you, those stunted and devastated places will be lifted up and established. What was destitute and laid waste will be made good again. Strength will come allowing then to endure and succeed.

What was nothing but destruction will be made into an inheritance, an estate that all desire to possess. It will be as a stream in a thirsty desert or a wealthy mine. The Lord God takes those things that have been rejected and cast off and He makes them into precious treasures.
