TOPIC: GOD WILL STAND UP FOR YOU

TEXT: “For your shame ye shall have double; and for confusion they shall rejoice in their portion: therefore in their land they shall possess the double: everlasting joy shall be unto them (Isaiah 61:7).

More than any other time in history we need the Lord to stand up for us so we can be strengthened and make through the trying times we might be facing. Regardless of what’s going on in your life, the Lord will not allow you end it in shame because His glory is at stake in your life and He also has seen your diligence in serving Him.

God always gives back to us when we give to Him. This becomes even more powerful when we give to God from a place of great sacrifice. Sometimes the sacrifice is being ridiculed by family and friends for what you believe, but God will stand up for you. He won’t let you be accused or mistreated for serving Him without bringing a payback blessing into your life, and those blessings come with a double price tag attached to them! God pays double when we are willing to be shamed for following His ways. God considers your work for His Kingdom important, and while we do it joyfully with gratitude God does see how much effort you put into it. While we don’t arrogantly expect payback from God because He has already given us everything, we know God is a giver. He first gave Jesus, and then we give back to Him through our love and heart of unconditional service. For that service, God then gives to us again, and the cycle keeps going! His promise is that you will not suffer shame without possessing a double blessing in your life. So get ready, the double blessing is coming your way.
