SPREADING GOD'S WORD OF GLORY

 

SPREADING GOD'S WORD OF GLORY!

It is ADVENT=and we are

PREPARING for the Lord-

Who is coming

Today=we as MODERN DAY DISCIPLES=

Must SPREAD the Word of God=

We must spread

The GLORY of God

In today's world

“For when his children see

The work of my hands

In his midst

They shall........

Be in awe of the God

Of Israel”                                                                                                                Isaiah 29:23

In today's readings-

Prophecy takes priority

And Isaiah writes a PORTRAIT

Of the Messiah=

While the Gospel=fills in the blanks

Dear Lord-Help us

To stay TRUE to you

And to SPREAD the WORD of God

Like Isaiah and Matthew

SREADING GOD'S WORD

OF GLORY=in this mixed up world=

We pray dear Lord

As your MODERN day apostles and disciples

“But the word of God

Continued to SPREAD

And flourish”                                                                                                           Acts 12:24

“In this way

The word of the Lord

SPREAD WIDELY

And grew in power”                                                                                          Acts 19:20

“We sent Timothy

Who is our brother

And co-worker=in God's service

IN SPREADING

The gospel of Christ

To strengthen and encourage

You in your faith

So that no one

Would be unsettled

By these trials”                                                                                                         1 Thessalonians 3:2-3

In today's first reading=

Isaiah sees a blooming “ORCHARD”

As thick as a forest

And promising JOY

For the lowly

Hearing for the deaf=

Sight for the blind=

And HAPPINESS

For all the good people

ISAIAH'S VISION

Is happening 800 years

Before the coming of Christ

Isaiah is SPREADING

God's word of glory

And in MATTHEW'S GOSPEL today=

Jesus HEALS two blind men=

He commands their silence=

But God's WORD has a way

Of COMING OUT

What can we do TODAY

To SPREAD the word of God?

What can we do

To spread GOD'S GLORY?

TESTIFY! TESTIFY! TESTIFY!

Tell of

The GOODNESS OF GOD!

“And they were

Calling to one another=

'Holy-holy-holy

Is the Lord Almighty

The whole earth

Is full of his GLORY'”                                                                                                  Isaiah 6:3

ISAIAH spread the word=

Then CAME JESUS!=

And the WORD made flesh

WHAT can we do with

Our humble little lives

TO SPREAD GOD'S WORD OF GLORY?

In Jesus' name=and in the name=of our LIVING -LOVING FATHER!
