Isaiah 60:19 ► The sun shall be ...

[Tang Wei Ping]

Isaiah 60:19 ►

The sun shall be no more thy light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee: but the LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory.

Commentary on this verse:

We must look for the full accomplishment in times and things, exceeding those of the Old Testament church. The nations and their kings shall lay themselves out for the good of the church. Such a salvation, such a redemption, shall be wrought out for thee, as discovers itself to be the work of the Lord. Every thing shall be changed for the better. In thy land shall no more be heard threats of those that do violence, nor complaints of those that suffer violence. Thy walls shall be means of safety, thy gates shall be written upon with praises to God. In the close of this chapter are images and expressions used in the description of the New Jerusalem, Re 21:23; 22:5. Nothing can answer to this but some future glorious state of the church on earth, or the state of the church triumphant in heaven. Those that make God their only light, shall have him their all-sufficient light. And the happiness shall know no change or alloy. No people on earth are all righteous; but there are no mixtures in heaven. They shall be wholly righteous. The spirits of just men shall there be made perfect. The glory of the church shall be to the honour of God. When it shall be finished, it will appear a work of wonder. It may seem too difficult to be brought about, but the God of almighty power has undertaken it. It may seem to be delayed and put off; but the Lord will hasten it in the time appointed by his wisdom, though not in the time prescribed by our folly. Let this hope cheer us under all difficulties, and stir us up to all diligence, that we may have an abundant entrance into this everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

Our prayer:

Prayer for Isaiah 61:1 ►
“The Spirit of the Lord God is on Me, because the Lord has anointed Me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and freedom to the prisoners;”

Praying through Isaiah 61:1
Heavenly Father, our understanding is so limited of all You are and the untold mysteries that surround the triune Godhead and the incarnate Word of God. Yet You loved us so much that You came in the Person of the Lord Jesus Christ to die for our sins so that we might receive the good tidings of great joy which have been given to all people; the joyful news that by grace through faith in Him, we have been forgiven of our sins. Thank You that the Holy Spirit indwells us, comforting us and binding up our broken and bleeding heart. Thank You that in Christ, we have been set free from the bondage to sin, from the curse of the Law, and from enslavement by Satan. Praise You, Lord! AMEN.

Heavenly Father,

We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up Tang Wei Ping and reflecting on the powerful promise found in Isaiah 60:19: "The sun shall be no more thy light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee: but the LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory."

Lord, we thank You for being our everlasting light and our glory. We pray that Tang Wei Ping and all of us may experience Your divine presence as our all-sufficient light, guiding us through every season of life. May we find comfort in knowing that You are our eternal source of illumination, far surpassing the sun and the moon.

Father, we look forward to the full accomplishment of Your promises, both in the future glorious state of the church on earth and in the triumphant state of the church in heaven. We pray for a transformation in our lives and in our communities, where threats and violence are no more, and where safety and praises to You abound.

As we meditate on the hope of the New Jerusalem, we ask that You help us to make You our only light, knowing that in You, our happiness shall know no change or alloy. May we strive to be wholly righteous, reflecting the perfection of the spirits of just men made perfect in heaven.

Lord, we also lift up the prayer inspired by Isaiah 61:1: "The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me; because the Lord hath anointed Me to preach good tidings unto the meek; He hath sent Me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound."

We pray that Your Spirit would rest upon Tang Wei Ping and all of us, anointing us to bring good news to the poor, to heal the brokenhearted, and to proclaim liberty to those who are captive. May we be instruments of Your peace and love, bringing hope and freedom to those in need.

In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
