Morning is Broken

That's the word I just received. It's 3AM. I'm up for no good reason. Sometimes I get up and listen to what God might be saying.

Sometimes it's Pickled Pigs feet. or Pizza.

This morning it's something else.

Mourning, not Morning is Broken. Whatever in your life that you have been mourning, loss, pain, difficulty, fears, anxiety or death of a person or idea, MOURNING IS BROKEN.

The Spirit of God says:
Psalm 30:5
For his anger lasts only a moment,
but his favor lasts a lifetime;
weeping may remain for a night,
but rejoicing comes in the morning.

And even when things around you look like they are burned to the ground, here's what the Lord says:

Isaiah 61

1The 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;

2To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;

3To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.

4And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.



If there are ashes, beauty can't be far behind. That's the promise.
