Just-A-Thought No. 433 (September 26th. 2014)
NOT FORSAKEN BUT HIS DELIGHT (Isaiah 62:1) For Zion's sake [overcomers/firstfruits] will I [the Christ] not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem's [Church/believers] sake I will not rest, until the righteousness thereof go forth as brightness, and the salvation thereof as a lamp that burneth (enLIGHTened). (2) And the Gentiles (unbelievers) shall see thy righteousness, and all kings thy glory: and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the LORD shall name. (3) Thou shalt also be a crown of glory in the hand of the LORD, and a royal diadem (these when worn circle the head and His thinking) in the hand of thy God (better put it on!). (4) Thou shalt no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall thy land any more be termed Desolate: but thou [Adam and Eve as one; Bridegroom and Bride as one] shalt be called Hephzibah [meaning “My delight is in thee’], and thy land Beulah [means ‘married’]: for the LORD delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be married [needs a resurrection touch first …]. (5) For as a young man marrieth a virgin (unspoiled by the ‘world’), so shall thy sons {many-membered matures sons now called ‘Christ’] marry thee (non-overcomer believers): and as the [corporate] bridegroom rejoiceth over the [corporate] bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee [individually and corporately]. Remember God saw Adam and Eve as ‘He’ not ‘they’ (Genesis 5:2). Note in passing: “Zion is in Jerusalem not Jerusalem in Zion! Father is never taken by surprise and what He decrees will happen. He planned it -- that as He was lifted up, He would draw all men unto/into Himself. Remember, when God draws you at any stage, you cannot help but come. But if He does not draw you, you cannot come at that time. “Just-A-Thought” for you to ‘chew on’. GBY (= God bless you NOT goodbye!).
