word on the rock

So today is Friday which means i got to wake up later than usual since i only have one class. It was pretty chill i accidentally slept with my contacts on though -_- But before i elft for school got a haircut and helped my dad pull in these platforms made of wood to the backyard. if only we had like 30 of them. haha Anyways well i was doing ym usual routine and as i was getting dropped of to the trolley a house had a rock with a bible verse painted on it. It was the verse Isaiah 45:3-5

As soon as i got into the trolley i pulled out my bible but it was kinda weird since nobody reads their bible in public let alone in a trolley. But i claim to not be ashamed of God nor the word and read whenever i ahve to or need to. Anyways, i read my book and disregarded people around me. it says,

3 I will give you the treasures of darkness,
riches stored in secret places,
so that you may know that I am the LORD,
the God of Israel, who summons you by name.

4 For the sake of Jacob my servant,
of Israel my chosen,
I summon you by name
and bestow on you a title of honor,
though you do not acknowledge me.

5 I am the LORD, and there is no other;
apart from me there is no God.
I will strengthen you,
though you have not acknowledged me,

When i read this i was like wow. Lets look into more detail eh? Notice how God uses darkness to describe his riches. Of course i could not just read those verses. I read within context and also read the begining verse.

Isaiah 45

1 "This is what the LORD says to his anointed,
to Cyrus, whose right hand I take hold of
to subdue nations before him
and to strip kings of their armor,
to open doors before him
so that gates will not be shut:

2 I will go before you
and will level the mountains ^[a] ;
I will break down gates of bronze
and cut through bars of iron.

To his anointed. Many people can recieve anointing but only few are using it correctly. In my church i learned that many people are recieved the anointing but are unable to recognize it or are just ignorant to its truths. The anointing is a gift from God. I am truly not an expert in anything in the bible but i am really seeking God and provision in my life so i may speak the word. The anointing according to John is "living water" It pours from our hearts and rejuvenates us. It is water giving by God to quench our thirst. From this pouring comes everlasting life.

Well anyways back to the text, God gives this promise to the anointed readers. "This is what the LORD says to his anointed" A promise of riches hidden in the darkness. I dont know about you guys but when i think about darkness i think about, those heartless people in kingdom of hearts. haha anyways, God really spoke to me today and just said that even though at times i do not acknowledge him, he still strengthens us. he even has awards waiting for us hidden in reserve! how cool! He has also given us honor and we must all uphold our honor.

Thank you Lord.

Well im done for the day and i guess ill chill in the library cause at home my parents might tell me what to do or i wont get anything done. I will probably work on some homework until 4 go home so by that time i can go to youth haha! peace
