The Kingdom of Righteousness Isaiah 32:1-8(NIV)
¹ See, a king will reign in righteousness and rulers will rule with justice. 
 ² Each man will be like a shelter from the wind and a refuge from the storm, like streams of water in the desert and the shadow of a great rock in a thirsty land. 
 ³ Then the eyes of those who see will no longer be closed, and the ears of those who hear will listen.
⁴ The mind of the rash will know and understand, and the stammering tongue will be fluent and clear.
⁵ No longer will the fool be called noble nor the scoundrel be highly respected. 
⁶ For the fool speaks folly, his mind is busy with evil: He practices ungodliness and spreads error concerning the LORD; the hungry he leaves empty and from the thirsty he withholds water. 
 ⁷ The scoundrel’s methods are wicked, he makes up evil schemes to destroy the poor with lies, even when the plea of the needy is just. 
 ⁸ But the noble man makes noble plans, and by noble deeds he stands.

Never Disappointed TODAY’S SCRIPTURE “...those who hope in me will not be disappointed.” (Isaiah 49:23, NIV) TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria What a powerful promise we have from Almighty God! When we put our hope in Him, we will never be disappointed. Of course, that doesn’t mean that things will always go our way. There may be temporary disappointments, but we will never be permanently disappointed. Somewhere down the road, God will cause it to all work out for our good. With God on your side, you will always end in victory! Are you carrying frustration, worry or aggravation about something? That’s usually a clear sign that your hope is in the wrong place. If you hope in circumstances, it will deplete you of joy and peace. But when you turn those circumstances over to God, when you refuse to worry, when you refuse to allow the temporary things of this world to dictate your happiness, that’s when God can do a work in your life. When you trust in Him, He will make your crooked places straight; He will cause you to mount up with wings like the eagle. Today, choose to put your hope in the Father; you won’t be disappointed. Trust Him because He is faithful. Find rest for your soul in knowing that He is good, and He has good things in store for your future! A PRAYER FOR TODAY Father, today I give You every frustration, every aggravation, every difficulty. I release total control into Your loving and able hands. Speak to my heart and give me Your peace. Show me Your love as I place my hope in You in Jesus’ name. Amen. — Joel & Victoria Osteen
