Isaiah 62
English Standard Version, David Cochran Audio
For Zion's sake I will not keep silent,
and for Jerusalem's sake I will not be quiet,
until her righteousness goes forth as brightness,
and her salvation as a burning torch.
2 The nations shall see your righteousness,
and all the kings your glory,
and you shall be called by a new name
that the mouth of the Lord will give.
3 You shall be a crown of beauty in the hand of the Lord,
and a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
4 You shall no more be termed Forsaken,
and your land shall no more be termed Desolate,
but you shall be called My Delight Is in Her,
and your land Married;
for the Lord delights in you,
and your land shall be married.
5 For as a young man marries a young woman,
so shall your sons marry you,
and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride,
so shall your God rejoice over you.
6 On your walls, O Jerusalem,
I have set watchmen;
all the day and all the night
they shall never be silent.
You who put the Lord in remembrance,
take no rest,
7 and give him no rest
until he establishes Jerusalem
and makes it a praise in the earth.
8 The Lord has sworn by his right hand
and by his mighty arm:
“I will not again give your grain
to be food for your enemies,
and foreigners shall not drink your wine
for which you have labored;
9 but those who garner it shall eat it
and praise the Lord,
and those who gather it shall drink it
in the courts of my sanctuary.”
10 Go through, go through the gates;
prepare the way for the people;
build up, build up the highway;
clear it of stones;
lift up a signal over the peoples.
11 Behold, the Lord has proclaimed
to the end of the earth:
Say to the daughter of Zion,
“Behold, your salvation comes;
behold, his reward is with him,
and his recompense before him.”
12 And they shall be called The Holy People,
The Redeemed of the Lord;
and you shall be called Sought Out,
A City Not Forsaken.
The Holy People. High Church. Low Church (not liturgical, more contemporary music). Any which way in between. People seeking the Lord. Isaiah 62 reminds me of Joel Olsteen saying "One touch, one touch, just a glimmer of God's favor is a blessing indeed."

I am tired of the news. I am tired of hearing of riots, needs unmet. I've read the news with trepidation, lately. At Church on Sunday I was surprised to hear that Texas Governor Rick Perry woke up in the middle of the night, from a sleep last November, believing God had spoken to him.
Rick Perry says, "We believe that America is in a state of crisis. Not just politically, financially or morally, but because we are a nation that has not honored God in our successes or humbly called on Him in our struggles. According to the Bible, the answer to a nation in such crisis is to gather in humility and repentance and ask God to intervene. The Response will be a historic gathering of people from across the nation to pray and fast for America."
The media has lined up. Governors all over the USA have been invited. So, now people are offended. Who is excluded? Oh. So. What.
I'm ready for this to happen. Our Church gathered with 30 Churches from different denominations and it was TERRIFIC!! What an atmosphere of expectation for the LORD to hear us! I'm ready not to hear about war. I am ready for people to look to God for favor. I plan on being in attendance. This isn't just for America, this for the redeemed of the Lord. I hope you will join this event - in prayer - wherever you are - geographically or spiritually. Let's all Look Up to the Lord.
Historic Crisis
Historic Response
Historic Breakthrough.
