♕ Today's Promise: "For your Maker is your husband— the Lord Almighty is his name— the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; he is called the God of all the earth." Isaiah 54: 5
I have never had the concept of being His bride. He is to me a friend or Father. Definitely my Saviour. In the midst of the worst storm in the marriage, my sleepless nights... I found lessons in HopeAtLast guiding me on healing and also how I am precious to my Heavenly Husband.
Then HH become my counsel, it was transformational for me. Initially, I was actually rebuked lovingly by Him. Telling me that I had not honor Him in my ways. I saw flashbacks of the things I have done so wrong, putting a Christian front but not walking His ways internally. He comforted me as I repented. Then it's like a metamorphosis from cocoon stage - I started to know that I am bearing the fruits of the spirit.
As I sought him and kept understanding His ways... He assured me:
Isaiah 54:5 NIV For your Maker is your Husband - the Lord Almighty is his name - the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; he is called the God of all the earth.
I had doubts on how long I can sustain the change. My HH lovingly confirmed through other means that it is not a change, it is a transformation. Transformation cannot be back to its previous form. I am blown away... as I wait on the Lord... I started not looking at EH and his doings. I started praying for him and his targeted OW... Something I would never have done if I didn't look to my HH.
What is for the good for EH, I pray that EH will draw close to Him. I do not pursue or go on the same as before with them.
Then, miraculously, the restoration came in swift, in the span of 3 weeks, things turn around. The scales from EH's eyes fell and we started to have meaningful conversation and I shared in depth lessons I've learned from HH and EH was and is so impressed, he is pressing in. I did nothing except seek and wait upon HH.. and I am grateful every single day.
Dear beloved bride. HH is waiting for you. Do not hesitate to look upon His wonderful face and depend on Him. You don't know what lies ahead, trust in what He promised, and He loves you so much to have this time to draw near to you. Let Him wash over you with His loving grace, comfort you in your most vulnerable times. You will find that nothing else matters except Him. Let go and Let Him. Love 🙂
Psalm 16: 5-8 NIV Lord, you alone are my portion and my cup; you make my lot secure. The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely I have a delightful inheritance. I will praise the Lord, who counsels me; even at night my heart instructs me. I keep my eyes always on the Lord. With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken.
