A PROFOUND RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD

We have a deeply profound teaching about God’s relationship with His people. All who are redeemed have this wonderful relationship with God!

1 But now, thus says the Lord, who created you, O Jacob,
And He who formed you, O Israel:
“Fear not, for I have redeemed you;
I have called you by your name;
You are Mine.

2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;
And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you.
When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned,
Nor shall the flame scorch you.

3 For I am the Lord your God,
The Holy One of Israel, your Savior;
I gave Egypt for your ransom,
Ethiopia and Seba in your place.

4 Since you were precious in My sight,
You have been honored,
And I have loved you;
Therefore I will give men for you,
And people for your life.     Isaiah 43:1-4

  1. The First Relationship

RAMIFICATIONS OF THIS REDEEMED RELATIONSHIP

Let us rejoice in the Lord and in our Redemption!
