For the LORD shall comfort Zion: he will comfort all her waste places; and he will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the LORD; joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody. - Isaiah 51:3
Today God promises that He will convert the wilderness in to Garden of Eden. Nobody likes the life that is desolate like wilderness. Word of God portrays clearly the situation in the wilderness. Wilderness is an empty place. In case you may also feel emptiness similar to that of wilderness in your life. Only in such wilderness God has chosen you. He found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling wilderness; he led him about, he instructed him, he kept him as the apple of his eye.(Deut 32:10). Nothing can grow in the wilderness and nothing good can come out of it. Go and cry in the ears of Jerusalem, saying, Thus saith the LORD; I remember thee, the kindness of thy youth, the love of thine espousals, when thou wentest after me in the wilderness, in a land that was not sown.(Jer 2:2). In your life as well as in your business and trade, you mighty not be successful. God promises that He will convert such circumstances into blessing like the Garden of Eden. You will not get anything to eat in the wilderness. You will fee thirsty, but no water available to drink. Your soul will be disturbed and your spirit will be sinking down. They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city to dwell in. Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them.(Ps 107:4-5). Life with out peace and desolate like wilderness, God is capable of changing it. Wilderness means the place where the enemies fight against you. Who led thee through that great and terrible wilderness, wherein were fiery serpents, and scorpions, and drought, where there was no water; who brought thee forth water out of the rock of flint;(Deut 8:15). Are you experiencing your fight against the enemy every day? God crush your enemies.
Because God is changing your life like Eden, there will be rejoicing, praising and singing in your life. Adam and Eve lived with out blemish and sin in the Garden of Eden. Yes my beloved today God is prepared to forgive your sins to dispense with the unwanted and unpleasant things in your life. If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.(2Chro 7:14). Adam and Eve tasted only good things in the Garden of Eden. Your sins are the ones that block the grace of God flowing in to your life. But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.(Isa 59:2). Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withholden good things from you.(Jer 5:25). Offer your life to God, to convert it like Eden. When you surrender your life to God there will be plenty of rejoicing, praising and singing will dominate your life. It will happen now itself. Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.(Isa 55:7)
The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose. It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing: the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon, they shall see the glory of the LORD, and the excellency of our God. - Isaiah 35:1-2
