I will make thee an eternal excellency, a joy of many generations. Isa 60:15
As exiles, Israelites had to go through various calamities, persecutions, and trials. But God promised a reversal of this by exalting His people, making them an open display of honor forever and source of happiness for generations to come.
God in His faithfulness can restore our fallen situations and change the worst situation into best. By believing in Jesus and making a full commitment to him, we have become an eternal excellency.
1 Peter 5:10 says that “God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you Perfect, Establish, Strengthen and Settle you.”
Lord, help us not to settle down for “ordinary”, but to be excellent in things you have called us to be. In Jesus name. Amen!
