Thought for the day
You will be firmly founded in righteousness. You will stay far from oppression because you won’t fear, far from terror because it won’t come near you. If anyone attacks you, it’s none of my doing. Whoever attacks you will fall because of you. Look, I myself created the metalworker who blows the fire of coal and who produces a tool for his work. And I myself created the looter to destroy. No weapon fashioned against you will succeed, and you may condemn every tongue that disputes with you. This is the heritage of the Lord’s servants, whose righteousness comes from me, says the Lord. (Isaiah 54:14-17 CEB)
