ZEPHANIAH 3:14-20
14 Cry out with joy, O daughter of Zion; rejoice, O people of Israel! Sing joyfully with all your heart, daughter of Jerusalem! 15 Yahweh has lifted your sentence and has driven your enemies away. Yahweh, the King of Israel is with you; do not fear any misfortune. 16 On that day, they will say to Jerusalem: Do not be afraid nor let your hands tremble, 17 for Yahweh your God is within you, Yahweh, saving warrior. He will jump for joy on seeing you, for he has revived his love. For you he will cry out with joy, as you do in the days of the feast. | 18 I will drive away the evil I warned you about, and you will no longer be shamed. 19 On that day, I will face your oppressors; I will save the lame sheep and bring the lost back into the fold. I will give them renown and honor in all the lands where humiliation was your lot. 20 On that day, I will be good to you; and gather you, to make you famous and honorable, among all the peoples of the earth, when I bring back the captives before your eyes,—this is Yahweh’s word. |
I have seen your tears, I have heard your sighs, I have heard you call Me in the silent watches of the night and all through your waking hours. I have heard, ---- my own, and I will answer. I Am the Lord your God. I Am your healer, comforter, redeemer, beloved, brother, friend, and above all, I Am espoused to you. Fear nothing but continue to lean on Me, and to tell Me all your troubles. Cling to Me and allow Me to comfort you. I desire nothing more passionately than the salvation of all those for whom I laid down My life. Do not be sad, do not let anxiety weigh you down. Remember all My assurances and your heart will rejoice when you see the mighty hand of God work in the lives of all those whom you love. You cannot love them more than I do. I assure you that I will save and there will be great rejoicing and gladness, singing and dancing on the day when all that I have assured you I will do comes to pass. Be of good cheer, wait patiently for at a time of my choosing every one of My promises will come to pass and you will be amazed at the faithfulness of God who always keeps His Word. Trust Me, remain in Me, rely on Me, and never be parted from Me. Nothing delights Me more than to grant all who are Mine all they need to thrive in every way and lead them safely to My Kingdom.
