God Will Make A Way

Isaiah 54:1

"Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing, 

and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child: for more 

are the children of the desolate than the children of 

the married wife, saith the LORD"

 

     No matter what your past has been like and no matter what the future looks like, with God, anything is possible. Today is a new day. A new beginning. It’s nearly a new year on the calendar. This can be our greatest year yet! 

    In this opening verse, the prophet Isaiah told the barren woman to sing. Notice that he didn’t say "childless woman."  He called her a barren woman, for Sarah having children was not even a possibility. However, she, who for all natural accounts should have remained childless her entire life, was promised more children than a fertile woman with a husband by her side. Isaiah, in effect, was telling us that even when there doesn’t seem to be a way, God can make a way.

    This was true for Abraham and Sarah. By the time the angels visited the couple to tell them that a baby was finally on the way, they were well into their 90s, far past the age for bearing children. Yet, God made a way, even when there seemed to be none, and just as the angels predicted, Isaac was born the following year.

    This was also true for the children of Israel as they left Egypt and found themselves sandwiched between the entire Egyptian army and the watery depths of the Red Sea. There was no place for them to go, or so it seemed. But God parted the sea and made a way for them. God led His people through the sea and then the wilderness. He provided water when there was none and food from heaven when there was none. God gave Israel a bright future when all had seemed lost.

    Friends, God made a way for Abraham, Sarah, and all of Israel. He can make a way for us, too. No matter how bleak things may seem, cling to God and have faith in the One Who can do anything. Whatever difficulty you might be facing today be it financial, a difficult relationship, a bad medical report, or anything else, know in your heart that God can turn it all around in one instant. God will make a way. 

Amen!
