My soul yearns for You
Isaiah 26:9 amp. "My soul yearns for You [O Lord] in the night, yes, my spirit within me seeks You earnestly; for [only] when Your judgments are in the earth will the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness (uprightness and right standing with God)." The way of righteousness is through the Lord. It comes as our souls desire and crave the Lord day and night, and when we long to be in His presence. In this chapter, the Prophet Isaiah praises God for the salvation of the Righteous and the punishment of the wicked. His heart is drawn to this song, that hungers for change and deliverance. He does not stop believing or praying, for his heart stands on the promise of freedom from the enemy, Babylon. We must pray and seek the Lord, just as Isaiah did. We also have to trust and hold on to the promises of God. He is our Hope. The enemy has been defeated. When God's judgments are revealed, all will recognize and learn His Righteousness. Keep standing for Christ, no matter how tough it gets in this world, for He is our everlasting strength. Praise God.
