Episode 321: Isaiah 61

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Isaiah 61

As part of the Great Commission, I have been sent in the power and authority of Jesus' name. Father, your Spirit is upon me. You have anointed me for a special purpose. You have anointed me to bring the good news to the poor; they don't have to be poor anymore. You have sent me to comfort the brokenhearted; they have access to Holy Spirit, the Comforter; you have sent me to proclaim the release of those who have been held captive by sin and to let the prisoners know they have been set free. You have sent me to tell those who mourn that the time of your favor has come. The enemy has been defeated.

I mourn no longer. You have given me a crown of beauty for ashes, a joyous blessing instead of mourning and festive praise instead of despair. Because you have made me righteous through Christ Jesus, I stand tall like a great oak that you have planted for your own glory.

The ancient ruins of my life have been rebuilt. That which sin destroyed has been repaired. You have revived me. 

You call me a priest of the Lord, and your minister. I feed on the treasures of your kingdom, the spoils of the wicked. You have made me rich. Instead of shame and dishonor, I enjoy a double share of honor. I possess a double portion of prosperity and everlasting joy is mine.

Father, you love justice and hate robbery and wrongdoing. You faithfully reward me for the suffering the enemy put me through. You have made an everlasting covenant with me. My descendants are recognized and honored. Everyone realizes that you have blessed us. 

You will show your justice to the nations of the world and everyone will praise you. Every knee will bow.

I am overwhelmed with joy and my soul vibrates with exuberant hope in you, Father. You have dressed me with the garment of salvation and draped me with the robe of righteousness. I am like a bride decked out with jewels for my wedding.

Your righteousness is like a garden in early spring, sprouting new life. Green shoots break through the well-seeded garden soil. That is what it is like to live in your victory. 

So be it.

Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.
