August 26

I can’t help but get real today. I am tired of reading about judgment. Israel and Judah are under God’s judgment for good reason, and now Tyre especially is being wiped out because they are taking advantage of God’s people when they are down and out. There is a lesson in that but my soul is crying out for some encouragement! How about some good news! It dawned on me – 2 things really – first God was setting His people up and the people of the whole earth up for the coming of Messiah! Even Babylon will be in great need, everyone will! Everyone needs a Savior and the stage is being set for just that, not to mention that over and over it has said through all the proclamations of judgment that God will be exalted in all this and the whole earth will know of Him.

The second thing I received is how thirsty my soul is for the good news! I crave the blessing of God and I want it for others too! All of this judgment and wrath is having an effect on me, it is making me hungry for the promises of God.
