March 25th, 2023~Jesus Gives Us Beauty For Ashes✨

Have a Blessed Last Saturday in March with Jesus.✨ Seek Him First. Meditate on Isaiah 61. Isaiah speaks of Christ who was to be the Comforter that will bring Joy to all who are humbled before God.

Christ will rise mourners out of their dust and make them look pleasant. Beauty is the Holy cheerfulness of Christians Jesus will restore.

Mourning disfigures our countenance, Jesus brings the oil of joy, that makes the face shine and brings gladness. *Where God gives the oil of joy, He gives the garment of praise. We are to give God the glory!🙏🏾

“To console those who mourn in Zion, To give them beauty for ashes, The oil of joy for mourning, The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; That they may be called trees of righteousness, The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.””

Isaiah 61:3 NKJV

(Study from *Matthew Henry’s Commentary on The Whole Bible)
