" The ransomed of the Lord shall return and come to Zion with singing; everlasting joy shall be upon their heads; they shall obtain gladness and joy, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away."
Isaiah 51:11
The redeemed of the Lord look forward to that eternal morning when darkness is dispelled. The shroud of sorrow and pain shall never cover the brow of God's elect again. Sighing shall flee away. The weariness of heart and mind vanquished.
This hope of everlasting joy stirs our hearts. The promise is sure beloved, though gladness and joy appear to be fleeting at times. There is a hope of its permanency in the kingdom of our Lord. When He makes all things new and wipes away every tear. On that day, everlasting joy shall be upon your head. Eternal gladness and joy obtained, never to depart again for sorrow, and all-cause for sighing shall have fled away.
God will hold us fast until the appointed time. He is faithful to impart His peace for this hour. To bring joy to our hearts because of the salvation He has provided for us. God is with you and will not forsake you.
In Christ Alone,
Pastor Wight
