You Don't Need To Be A Better Person, You Just Need To Be A Different Person

Do you need some joy in your life right now? Are you getting beat up with the pressure and stress of this life? You need hope, joy and encouragement. That is exactly what the prophet Isaiah gave us as he wrote 2,700 years ago in the book named after him.

"You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands." Isaiah 55:12 NIV

When Adam's curse is lifted and the Lord restores his kingdom on earth, you will break forth in song as you are filled with peace. You will go out in joy like the Jews when they were released from bondage.

As the curse is overcome, we will not be faced with fires, earthquakes, floods, and droughts. Instead the mountains and hills will be singing before you and the trees with be clapping. Nature will be on your side.

No more sickness, no more pain, and no more working the terrible job you are trapped in. "God will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning nor crying nor pain any more, for the former things have passed away." Revelation 21:4.

God wants you to live in peace and to be happy forever. The beautiful things of his creation, the mountains, hills and trees, will be preserved for you forever and ever. If you have asked Jesus to come into your heart to take over your life and have asked for forgiveness, then this is your hope and encouragement. You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace!

You don't need to be a better person to cash in on what the Lord has in store for his children. You need to change from the inside out and deal with your sin to become a different person. "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved—you and your household." Acts 16:31

Sell out to God from the heart!
