Who Inhabits Eternity

Isaiah 57:15 (ESV Strong's)

For thus says the One who is high and lifted up,

who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy:

“I dwell in the high and holy place,

and also with him who is of a contrite and lowly spirit,

to revive the spirit of the lowly,

and to revive the heart of the contrite.


God is other than man, other than creation itself, yet we can become one with Him. He has drawn near over the impossible, unimaginable distance between us, even entering into our world and flesh and abiding with us Spirit to spirit. 


This makes it possible for people filled with His Spirit to reach out to each other in the same way, in the unity of the Holy Spirit. To overcome our differences which separate us and become differences to honor each other and add to our joy in life with Him. 


Oh Father,

Come fill us now with your love and peace. Let your living waters flow through and from us into this parched land to put out the fires of hatred fanned by the smoke out of the deep abyss, home of the father of hatred and violence. May your kingdom come and will be done. 


We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ. May it be so.
