Just Sing!
Isaiah 54 contains an awesome word of encouragement for people that are ready for change. If you have ever experienced a season of spiritual dryness or non-productivity, you will love it.
How do you shake the drought? You SING! Right there in the pit of discouragement and with your lacking non-productive life…SING! And what is the initial reaction to that type of counsel? People say, "what have I got to sing about?"
Seems we need a reason – need to see some progress – an increase in our check at work – straight A’s on our children’s progress report – then we’ll sing! Give me a winning lottery ticket and just watch me burst into song!
But Isaiah also provides us with a reason. To put it plain and simple he says you may never have experienced “labor pains” but you’re ending up with far more children than all of those childbearing women! In other words, YOUR blessing is on the way! That's good news! It’s coming! It’s just around the corner! Just a little further! So SING! …
