A Word For The Church Of God

The Lord says:

Is not Zion where Heaven comes to earth?

Have I not called you (My Church) to be a Way in a wilderness?

A place where the redeemed can enter with singing

Where everlasting joy crowns their heads;

Where gladness and joy overtakes them;

Sorrow and sighing flee away;

Where I say to those with fearful hearts

Be strong do not fear,

Your God will come to save you!

Yes, your God will come to save you!

Where my power goes forth from Me to my people;

Where the lost can come to meet with Me

And experience Heaven on earth;

Be immersed in my Spirit.

Is Zion not such a place?

As you worship me in Spirit and in Truth

I will come and bind up the broken hearted,

I will proclaim freedom for the captives,

And release for the prisoners

I will proclaim the year of the Lord's favor

And comfort those who grieve in Zion

I will bestow on you a crown of beauty instead of ashes,

The oil of gladness instead of mourning,

A garment of praise instead of despair

You will be called oaks of righteousness,

A planting of the Lord

For the display of My splendor!

Give yourselves no rest,

And I will not rest, until Zion is made the praise of the earth!
