Isaiah 55:11&12
"11 So shall My word be that goeth forth out of My mouth: it shall not return unto Me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
12 For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands."
What is the sound of one tree clapping it's hands in the field if no person is there to hear it??? It's the SOUND of PRAISE for our Lord and Savior!!! And, that's what it's all about; praise to GOD!!! Yesterday's quote from Saint Augustine of Hippo began with PRAISE; "Great are You, O Lord, and exceedingly worthy of praise; Your power is immense, and Your wisdom beyond reckoning..." And, the Samaritan woman at Jacob's Well was very praising as she came to believe Jesus was the Messiah!!!
In today's verses we read that it's not limited to people praising GOD, it's ALL of creation! "...the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into SINGING," Have you heard the mountains singing?!?! I have see mountains inspire awe and reverence for God. I have not heard them SING!
This is some amazing verses! God's prophet Isaiah is telling us that God's word will accomplish it's goals with or without you! "it shall not return unto Me void, but it shall ACCOMPLISH that which I please, and it shall PROSPER in the thing whereto I sent it." GOD'S plan will accomplishing that which GOD Iintend; with or without you and me. Even if it's only the rocks and trees celebrating and praising GOD! Don't you want to be part of the party cheering and grateful for everything that God has done?
