Bible Verse of the Day #8; Invitation To The Thirsty.
Hi Steemians,
I am bringing in a new form for us to interact with the word of God. I will be posting the Bible verses and I will like you to ask questions and also comment on how you understand the word. This is a way to make us grow in the understanding of God's word together.
Today's Bible verse is:
Isaiah 55
55 “Come, all you who are thirsty,
come to the waters;
and you who have no money,
come, buy and eat!
Come, buy wine and milk
without money and without cost.
2
Why spend money on what is not bread,
and your labor on what does not satisfy?
Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good,
and you will delight in the richest of fare.
3
Give ear and come to me;
listen, that you may live.
I will make an everlasting covenant with you,
my faithful love promised to David.
4
See, I have made him a witness to the peoples,
a ruler and commander of the peoples.
5
Surely you will summon nations you know not,
and nations you do not know will come running to you,
because of the Lord your God,
the Holy One of Israel,
for he has endowed you with splendor.”
6
Seek the Lord while he may be found;
call on him while he is near.
7
Let the wicked forsake their ways
and the unrighteous their thoughts.
Let them turn to the Lord, and he will have mercy on them,
and to our God, for he will freely pardon.
8
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,”
declares the Lord.
9
“As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.
10
As the rain and the snow
come down from heaven,
and do not return to it
without watering the earth
and making it bud and flourish,
so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater,
11
so is my word that goes out from my mouth:
It will not return to me empty,
but will accomplish what I desire
and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.
12
You will go out in joy
and be led forth in peace;
the mountains and hills
will burst into song before you,
and all the trees of the field
will clap their hands.
13
Instead of the thornbush will grow the juniper,
and instead of briers the myrtle will grow.
This will be for the Lord’s renown,
for an everlasting sign,
that will endure forever.”
How do you understand the passage and what can you bring out of it?
You can take a verse and talk about it or as many as you want to talk about
I am looking forward to the comments.
God Bless You.
Shalom.

"Seek the Lord while he may be found as in verse 6 above does not mean that God will go missing after a while. God works with time you know. The preacher said in his books " There is time for everything". Apostle Paul did say "Now is the acceptable time, behold today is the day of salvation". Today when you hear his voice, do not harden your heart. Men it is dangerous not to work with and on God's time. Salvation is NOW.
Amen. Thanks for your contribution. God bless you sir.

It is time we put our trust in God. One of the most precious thing u will ever get on earth is the blessings of God. And how we can get this is to put our trust in him and obeying his words. Because, the Bible says we should seek him first the kingdom of God and it righteousness and all other things will be given to us. Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas
