GOD’S Will: Beautiful Feet
Have you looked at the human foot lately? Have you looked at your own feet lately? If you do, and you would describe your feet, would you say they are "beautiful?" I don't think so. I certainly know that, of all parts of the human anatomy, feet do not rate as #1 on the beauty scale, at least they do not rank so highly to me, myself and I; yet, check out what God says in Isaiah 52:7.
How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of him
who brings good news, who publishes peace, and
who brings good news about what is actually good,
that publishes salvation, that says, God Almighty Reigns!
who brings good news, who publishes peace, and
who brings good news about what is actually good,
that publishes salvation, that says, God Almighty Reigns!
How God Looks At Where Your Feet Are Taking You
Did you get this? God is stating clearly how He views the person whose journey is focused on doing God's will. He is bragging about that person's "feet" taking them on a journey with a five prong purpose: God loves your walk when your walk has, as it's priority, the importance of bringing good news. God really cares about you and me walking a journey of peace makers. He is very happy with a person who brings to others the good news about God's good news, and He describes this good news about good news as "Publishing Salvation," and declaring who really is in control, who declares "God Almighty reins!"
The Need To Get Walking
In 2020 and 2021, we live in a time when God's beautiful feet people's, boots need to really do some walking. We need to be about the Father's business. As our civilization's foundation crumbles, and as our nation's foundation crumbles, and as peoples individual lives are being drowned in quicksand, you and I have something for which to stand. I wonder how many reading this are walking with those beautiful feet under them? When you talk to your family, what words come out of your mouth. What is your message to others on Facebook, Twitter, TiKTok, Google, Parler, MeWe or other social media? What is your message to the church? Does your message resemble what God considers as "beautiful?" I am not talking about beautiful as the world declares beautiful. I am talking about the beautiful walk which God wants us to walk today. I hope you do have "beautiful feet." For when your message is the kind of journey God declares beautiful, you will be glad today and throughout all eternity; meanwhile you might just find yourself beautifully providing what is needed for the salvation of others who desperately need your beautiful walk.
We need to know God's will, and we need to carry it out: We need good news today! We need an authentic message of peace! We need to know about the good news about what is actually good. We get enough of hearing how wrong is right right is being wrong. People need God's salvation offered to them now more than ever. We need to know our God reigns, and so do all the people who need something to believe. Okay, Christ Followers, we have God's will to carry out: Let's get walking!
Have a blessed day.
