Beloved, hear a Word from God, through the prophet Isaiah, Chapter 45:19ff:
“I did not speak in secret, in a land of darkness; I did not say to the offspring of Jacob, ‘SEEK ME IN CHAOS’.
I, the Lord, speak the truth... Assemble yourselves and come, draw
near together, you survivors of the nations!”
Let us pray.
Yes, Lord, we heard it!
The word “survivors” is related to those who also prayed:
“Create in me a clean heart, O God;
And renew a right Spirit within me.”
Amen.
