This is what The Lord of Hosts, The God of Israel says: "When I restore their fortunes they will once again speak this word...may The Lord bless you righteous city, holy mountain... for I satisfy the thirsty person and feed all those who are weak." At this I awoke and looked around. My sleep had been most pleasant to me.
Jeremiah 31:23-26
"I am the bread of life", Jesus told them, "No one who comes to Me will ever be hungry and no one who believes in Me will ever be thirsty again. But as I told you, you have seen and yet you do not believe. Everyone The Father gives Me, will come to Me and the one who comes to Me, I will never cast out."
John 6:35-37
The Eternal One makes it clear that one of His greatest gifts is restoring our fortunes... freeing and restoring us from captivity, from the bondage that He speaks of in Isaiah 61:1-4, that is real freedom, a freedom that can be felt lived and showcased. By the way, you are the holy city He speaks of here. Do you remember The Savior reminding you that you are the light of the world and the lighted city on a hill that cannot be hidden? He and ONLY HE can satisfy, strengthen and make your sleep pleasant and make you a beacon for others at the same time. Our hunger and thirst should always bring us to Him and His promise. Go to Him and He will never give you the boot. Jonah reminds us that those who cling to worthless idols, forsake and forfeit faithful love. I shudder at the thought of those who forsake The Only One who will NEVER forsake them and forfeit the Only satisfaction, for all eternity.
Galatians 5:1, Jonah 2:8-9
"War is a crime against humanity. Criminals who transgress laws made by men sometimes escape the penalty; Those who break the laws ordained by God, NEVER. Whether nation or individual, their punishment is inevitable."
Abraham Lincoln
