Cancel Debts
By Mark and Marian Flippo
Isaiah 58:6-9 MSG
6-"This is the kind of fast day I'm after: to break the chains of injustice, get rid of exploitation in the workplace, free the oppressed, cancel debts.
7-What I'm interested in seeing you do is: sharing your food with the hungry, inviting the homeless poor into your homes, putting clothes on the shivering ill-clad, being available to your own families.
8-Do this and the lights will turn on, and your lives will turn around at once. Your righteousness will pave your way. The God of glory will secure your passage.
9-Then when you pray, God will answer. You'll call out for help and I'll say, 'Here I am.' A Full Life in the Emptiest of Places "If you get rid of unfair practices, quit blaming victims, quit gossiping about other people's sins,
Does this sound great to anybody? I have heard this scripture for just a couple of years or so. My wife pointed it out to me after reading it in the Message Bible a couple of days ago. I like the King James translation but sometimes we need to broaden our understanding. We know God is in control of everything. Everything is also in His timing! How many times have you read a scripture and wondered about the timing seeming to be odd? Remember God's timing! Maybe it is not so odd after all! Is this the right time? I am believing how about you?
