Not JUST Released from Captivity


It's a GREAT grace that sweeps across us as 
we realize that God doesn't just move 
us out of bondage & captivity to wander alone aimlessly...
but instead He invites us to overwhelming joy
 as the shackles fall away and we step into the promises He gives.

As I read Isaiah 55 this morning, God spoke to me about the JOY
that becomes ours when He frees us from the captivity of our sins.
He REDEEMS us - REFRESHES our spirit and RENEWS a hope in us.


As the Jews were coming out of captivity in Babylon, God already
had planned overwhelming Joy and Happiness in their future.


He does so for us today too...
Call to the One who is Hope-
the One who Restores us- 
the ONE who forgives sin 
and remembers it no more-
THE ONE WHO PLANS JOY FOR YOU!

Let your heart be filled with Joy that 
Only HE can give...
