Don't Rush the River
Like a river, God is ready to move the water and control the banks, but he waits for us. I thought we were waiting for him. All is designed for us to move in his flow and power for an expected end. He honors us in the process. He’s not in a hurry. Such a great God we serve.
The Book of Isaiah is described like the Colorado River, making history and speaking prophesies as it runs through the giant walls of the Grand Canyon. God’s story is from everlasting to everlasting. In Isaiah’s sixty-six chapters, he covers 6,000 years of recorded history, from the beginning of creation to the end of time—from Lucifer’s fall from heaven to Jesus’ unveiling in Revelation.
The Holy Spirit flows through God’s Jewish people, called to carry God’s commandments and bring the birth of His Messiah. His crucifixion brought salvation and forged the path for Pentecost. He poured out his Holy Spirit and began his Church. He is redeeming his bride.
Jesus in us and we in him. Christ is the supreme manifestation of wisdom and power, for he carries out the eternal plan of God and brings his people to completion.
It is Wisdom for us to wait and allow God to move the river. We speak of this wonderful wisdom that comes from God, hidden before now in a mystery. It is his secret plan, destined before the ages, to bring us into glory.
