September 17 – Personally Revived

“For thus says the One who is high and lifted up, who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: “I dwell in the high and holy place, and also with him who is of a contrite and lowly spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly, and to revive the heart of the contrite.” Isaiah 57:15 (ESV)

If we take a moment each day we can reflect and remember how blessed we are to have the assurance that our God who is in heaven also lives with us.  He abides in the high and holy place and he is with us when we are perplexed and dismayed.  He knows our situations and is very anxious to be a part of our lives.  Even though we are so small and so weak in comparison to God's greatness, and His power, yet He desires and promises to be involved in our lives.  And our verse today tells us why. He wants to revive us, to revive our spirits and our hearts.  Remember the times when we are low and feel ashamed or regretful, even in those times, God wants to lift our spirits and boost our confidence in His love for us.  So, today, let us remember to be humble and recognize our weaknesses and our need for His help.  And let us walk through the day rejoicing that we have such a Holy God who loves us so much.
