“I, THE LORD, WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN!”

 Isaiah 60:22        


(ESV) “The least one shall become a clan, and the smallest one a mighty nation; I am the LORD; in its time I will hasten it.”


(NLT) “The smallest family will become a thousand people, and the tiniest group will become a mighty nation. At the right time, “I, THE LORD, WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN.”


(NASB) “The smallest one will become a thousand, And the least one a mighty nation. I, the LORD, will bring it about quickly in its time.”


(HCSB) “Even the smallest family will be a powerful nation. I am the LORD, and when the time comes, I will quickly do all this.”




ALL of these translations of the HOLY BIBLE points out that I AM THE LORD will cause HIS WILL to come about, IN HIS TIMING!!!


Isaiah 60:21 (ESV) sets the stage for the focal passage saying “Your people shall all be righteous; they shall possess the land forever, the branch of MY planting, the work of MY hands, that I might be glorified.”  The work of “MY hands” will cause  ALMIGHTY GOD TO BE GLORIFIED, not by my abilities!!!

“WAIT FOR IT!”

 Habakkuk 2:1-3                   (ESV)


    “[1] I will take my stand at my watchpost

        and station myself on the tower,

    and look out to see what HE will say to me,

        and what I will answer concerning my complaint.

[2] And THE LORD answered me:


    “Write the vision;

        make it plain on tablets,

        so he may run who reads it. 

    [3] For still the vision AWAITS ITS APPOINTED TIME;

        it hastens to the end—it will not lie.

    If it seems slow, WAIT FOR IT;

        IT WILL SURELY COME; IT WILL NOT DELAY.”

“FEAR NOT!”

 Deuteronomy 20:1-4                  (KJV)

“1 When thou goest out to battle against thine enemies, and seest horses, and chariots, and a people more than thou, BE NOT AFRAID OF THEM: for the LORD thy GOD is with thee, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. 2 And it shall be, when ye are come nigh unto the battle, that the priest shall approach and speak unto the people, 3 And shall say unto them, Hear, O Israel, ye approach this day unto battle against your enemies: let not your hearts faint, “FEAR NOT”, and do not tremble, neither be ye terrified because of them; 4 For the LORD your GOD is HE that goeth with you, to fight for you against your enemies, TO SAVE YOU.”

“DO NOT FEAR!”

 Deuteronomy 20:2-4                     (ESV)


“[2] And WHEN YOU DRAW NEAR TO THE BATTLE, the priest shall come forward and speak to the people [3] and shall say to them, ‘Hear, O Israel, TODAY YOU ARE DRAWING NEAR FOR BATTLE AGAINST YOUR ENEMIES: let not your heart faint. “DO NOT FEAR” or panic or be in dread of them, [4] for the LORD your GOD is HE WHO goes with you to fight for you against your enemies, TO GIVE YOU THE VICTORY.’”





Going through life’s battle isn’t for the weak in SPIRIT!  The LORD your GOD will GIVE YOU THE VICTORY, if you are ONE of HIS CHOSEN and “DO NOT FEAR”!!!

“NONE IS RIGHTEOUS!”

 Romans 3:9-18                  (ESV)


No One Is Righteous


[9] What then? Are we Jews any better off? No, not at all. For we have already charged that all, both Jews and Greeks, are under sin, [10] as it is written: 


    “”NONE IS RIGHTEOUS”, NO, NOT ONE; 

    [11]     no one understands;

        no one seeks for GOD. 

    [12] All have turned aside; together they have become worthless;

        no one does good,

        not even one.” 

    [13] “Their throat is an open grave;

        THEY USE THEIR TONGUES TO DECEIVE.”

    “The venom of asps is under their lips.” 

    [14]     “Their mouth is full of curses and bitterness.” 

    [15] “Their feet are swift to shed blood; 

    [16]     in their paths are ruin and misery, 

    [17] and the way of peace they have not known.” 

    [18]     “There is no fear of GOD before their eyes.””

“NO CREATURE IS HIDDEN FROM HIS SIGHT!”

 Hebrews 4:11-13                    (ESV)


“[11] Let us therefore STRIVE TO ENTER THAT REST, so that no one may fall by the same sort of disobedience. [12] For the WORD OF GOD is LIVING and ACTIVE, SHARPER THAN ANY TWO-EDGED SWORD, piercing to the DIVISION OF SOUL AND SPIRIT, of JOINTS and of MARROW, and discerning the THOUGHTS and INTENTIONS of the heart. [13] And “NO CREATURE IS HIDDEN FROM HIS SIGHT”, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of HIM to WHOM we must give account.”





There are some who appear to Believe that they are FIT Spiritually!  The “HIM to WHOM we must give account” isn’t another creation, rather THE CREATOR WHO was, and is, and is to come!!  “NO CREATURE IS HIDDEN FROM HIS SIGHT”,………NONE!!!
