Today’s Reading:
Psalm 20
Isaiah 59
Isaiah 60
For behold, darkness will cover the earth And deep darkness the peoples; But the Lord will rise upon you And His glory will appear upon you.
Isaiah 60:2 NASB1995
I heard the Spirit of the Living God say,
Triumph is rising on the soil of iniquity. Iniquities, sin and corruption have marred your soil. But triumph will rise in its midst. Triumph will rise from the soil and overtake the soil and establish firm dominion over the soil. Triumph is rising. Restitution is rising, and a great unmarred harvest of victory, absolution, humility and My favor is rising.
Yes, truth is lacking; And he who turns aside from evil makes himself a prey. Now the Lord saw, And it was displeasing in His sight that there was no justice. And He saw that there was no man, And was astonished that there was no one to intercede; Then His own arm brought salvation to Him, And His righteousness upheld Him. He put on righteousness like a breastplate, And a helmet of salvation on His head; And He put on garments of vengeance for clothing And wrapped Himself with zeal as a mantle. According to their deeds, so He will repay, Wrath to His adversaries, recompense to His enemies; To the coastlands He will make recompense. So they will fear the name of the Lord from the west And His glory from the rising of the sun, For He will come like a rushing stream Which the wind of the Lord drives.
Isaiah 59:15-19 NASB1995
Horses and chariots are a false hope for victory. Double down, dig deep and be immovable in your trust of the Lord your God to bring about a victory so overwhelming that is is called a great wave and a great banner — even a tidal wave of vindication. Many are the sorrows of My people. Many are the fronts on which they have been terrorized, abused, handcuffed and robbed. But I Am bringing a vindication. I Am bringing a triumph. I Am bringing a victory to the people and to the land. It will come up from beneath the soil.
Now I know that the Lord saves His anointed; He will answer him from His holy heaven With the saving strength of His right hand.
Psalms 20:6 NASB1995
With vindication comes justice. With victory is triumph. You will see natural signs and shakings that signal the tidal wave of vindication and overwhelming triumph is near. It will be near, and then it will be here. This is not far off in the distance. It will come quickly and decisively on the heels of the sign of the great shaking. [Note: The shaking I saw was a widespread rumbling across the nation, but it was not violent or seemingly destructive.]
Great is the day of My vindication. I will wash My people in triumph. I will shower them with blessings and raise their fortunes from the dead. This is a resurrection season.
How to Respond
- Worship the Lord.
- Pray, Holy Spirit move. Bring Your victory, Your overwhelming vindication and Your justice. We can’t access any of those apart from You. Lord, I repent for knowingly or unknowingly be a part bringing any of this corruption upon us. I desire to live a pure life before You — holy and committed to the truth and to operating in love. Bring our vindication Lord. Bring triumph up from the soil as You have said. Bring swift, decisive justice along with it.
- Declare, Some boast in chariots and some in horses, But we will boast in the name of the Lord, our God. They have bowed down and fallen, But we have risen and stood upright. Save, O Lord; May the King answer us in the day we call.
Psalms 20:7-9 NASB1995 - Decree, How great is our God. He is the One who goes before us. He fights for us. He’s our wraparound shield. He is the God of our great vindication and salvation. He has never left us nor forsaken us. He is rising now to restore us, to bring great triumph even from the soils marred with iniquity. And He will bring a swift, strong, decisive tidal wave of vindication that is closely followed by justice.
