This month I have waited for a revelation from Revelation 3:15-22. I loved our last passage (Isaiah 42) so much and reviewed it so often, it was kept popping up in my mind. That's actually a good thing but I wanted something to hang onto in our new passage. God's Word never let's us down when we continue on! The beautiful thing I found was a connection- a connection between the two passages! Isaiah 42:17 says "those who trust in idols...will be turned away in shame". There is a sadness when you are turned away. Shame in itself brings sadness. But Revelations 3:18 tells us that we can go to God for counsel! He "will buy us white garments so we will not be shamed...". It's a beautiful metaphor of Christ taking our shame- washing us clean covering us with His purity!
Keep on dwelling in the Word!
