He’s Gathering His Own!

“Do not fear, for I am with you; I will gather your offspring from the east and gather you from the west. I will say to the north, ‘Give them up!’ and to the south, ‘Do not hold them back.’ Bring My sons from afar and My daughters from the ends of the earth, everyone who is called by My name, and whom I have created for My glory, whom I have formed, even whom I have made.” Isaiah 43:5-7

Do you have unsaved loved ones or loved ones who once knew God’s love but have strayed from their calling? God called me back when I was in rebellion and I take hold of this promise from His word everyday for my own unsaved and strayed loved ones. Many seem so far away at times yet I believe with all my heart that He is continually calling them back from the ends of the earth. You can trust in His word, His timing and His perfect plan for each one you are praying for. Precious sons and daughters, many of whom were dedicated as infants and taught of the Lord all have been created for His glory and you can trust that He is working to gather them even now. Just praise Him and thank Him today for whatever it is He desires to accomplish in their lives and don’t stop praying.

It is so difficult to keep from being fearful over lost loved ones; especially lost children. Even those who received the very godliest of instruction and appear to be doing everything right have potential to stray but God’s Word is filled with promises that pertain to our loved ones and His plan for their lives. He is with us, He will gather our offspring and He will never abandon His plan for the ones He created for His glory!
