Good Morning Friends,
“The wolf will live with the lamb, the
leopard will lie down with the goat, the calf and the lion and the yearling
together; and a little child will lead them. The cow will feed with the bear,
their young will lie down together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox.
The infant will play near the hole of the cobra, and the young child put his
hand into the viper’s nest. They will neither harm nor destroy on all my holy
mountain, for the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD as the waters
cover the sea. In that day the Root of Jesse will stand as a banner for the
peoples; the nations will rally to him, and his place of rest will be
glorious.” (Isaiah 11:6-10)
A day of peace is coming. Not just peace
among men, but even peace among the things of nature. The wolf will no longer
be the predator of the lamb, the lion will no longer be the enemy of the cow,
and snakes will no longer use their fearful poison.
The day of peace won’t come because of
America’s influence around the world. Our nation doesn’t hold that kind of
power, not over man and certainly not over nature. That kind of peace can only
come from one Source. “The earth will be full of the knowledge of the Lord. –
The Root of Jesse will stand as a banner for the peoples.” It is the presence
of Jesus and His influence that will bring peace.
When will it happen? How will He bring it
about? What will it be like?
Those are all questions left to be answered. But
peace is coming to the world. A peace that is beyond comprehension. A peace
that is beyond anything man can accomplish, beyond anything man can even
imagine.
The peace of Jesus is coming. Sounds good to
me.
His, by Grace,
Steve
