Isaiah 48- 52: Our God Reigns

Isaiah 52:7

Listen! Your watchmen lift up their voices;
together they shout for joy.
When the LORD returns to Zion,
they will see it with their own eyes.
Burst into songs of joy together,
you ruins of Jerusalem,
for the LORD has comforted his people,
he has redeemed Jerusalem.
The LORD will lay bare his holy arm
in the sight of all the nations,
and all the ends of the earth will see
the salvation of our God. - Is. 52:8-10 NIV

Listen now, can you hear the sound?  You have to strain to hear it over the roar of the nations, the jumble of information and the tumult of war.  It's the sound of an advancing army that is bringing peace instead of strife.  An army that is spreading news that brings rejoicing.  Our God Reigns!  Our God Reigns!  Our God Reigns!
