No eye has seen a God besides you, who acts for those who wait for You

The context of this verse (Isaiah 64:4) is of the prophet yearning for the days when God had acted in such a way that there could be no doubt of His existence and His power. In the larger context Isaiah knew that the cause of it all was Israel’s sin. He tells us in 59:2, that the Lord’s hand was not shortened that He could not save, nor His ear heavy that He could not hear, but Israel’s sins had separated them from the Lord, so that He would not hear.

Isaiah also tells us that the Lord meets him who rejoices and does righteousness, and who remembers Him in their ways (64:5). As it was then, so it is now. If we wonder why we don’t see the manifest works of God in our day, is it not that as a culture, we have turned our back on Him? Nevertheless, God is at work in the remnant, those who truly acknowledge His Name. Just this month, in local meetings that were calling Canada back on track, there was a significant and instant healing of a lady who had suffered for 27 years from fibromyalgia. She had been in chronic pain and chronic fatigue, and the Lord set her free!

Father, thank You that You are the same yesterday today and forever. Thank You that You do breakthrough, and show us that you are alive and well and willing to show us Your glory! There is no one like You, You remain faithful even when we are not! Father, You are the potter, and we are the clay. Mold us Lord more and more into Your image. Thank You father for the precious promise contained in the verse at the head of this post, thank You that You will act for me to fulfill the promises that You have given to me, as I continue to wait for You. I give You all the honour, and all the glory and all the praise in Jesus Name Amen
