Daily Scripture: Isaiah 51:7-8: “Listen to me, you who know righteousness, you people in whose heart is my law: Do not fear the reproach of men, nor be afraid of their insults. For the moth will eat them up like a garment, and the worm will end them like wool, but my righteousness will be forever, and my salvation from generation to generation.”

  • Be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might.
  • Genuine children of God are so often reproached and insulted by the world. People tend to look down on you because of your choice to serve God. Due to the antics of some, many no longer respect those who claim to serve God so they mock and insult them.
  • Do not be moved by them. They also persecuted our Lord Jesus. You are of a higher order and your righteousness is of God not of the world. You are directly under the coverage and authority of the supreme ruler of the entire universe. 
  • Who is a man that you are mindful of him or the son of man that you should fear him?
  • Today’s word says do not be afraid of their reproach or insults. Yes, they will come like an evil rain but you are covered. Do not be afraid. 
  • The moth will eat them up like a garment and the worm will eat them like wool but the righteousness of God shall be forever and his salvation from generation to generation. 
  • After they have faded away, you will still be here waxing strong. Fear not, God has got you covered.

Good morning, Strengthened.
