God sings over you
My Lover and His Vineyard: Let me sing a song for the one I love, called “My Lover and His Vineyard”: My beloved planted a vineyard on a very fertile hill Isaiah 5:1 (TPT) God sang a love song over Israel, He told of His deep love for her and described her as a vineyard. Israel was not producing fruit anymore of justice and righteousness.[1] “Isaiah starts off like a singer entertaining people with a love song, which he says he has composed on behalf of a friend.”[2] The song turned into regretful emotions, where song words should just be scrunched up and tossed away. For as the song lines sang: “He fully expected it to bear good grapes, but instead it produced only worthless wild grapes.” Isaiah 5:2 (TPT) Adobe Stock Images The Song God Sings Over You Has God called you to bear fruit?

Who is Jesus?
On the way he asked them, “Who do people say I am?” Mark 8:27 After Peter had spent so much time with Jesus, he had become familiar with who Jesus was, so his answer was fitting to Jesus’ question. It wasn’t the right time for everyone to know who Jesus fully was, even though the whole time He was on earth, He was revealing the Father God. The one thing about our identity that we should never forget is that God tells us who we are and calls us His sons and daughters.

Word of God
Psalms 119:25 God’s Word can give life, and Jesus said, He came to give us life abundantly in John 10:10. God’s Word gives us strength: My soul is weary with sorrow; strengthen me according to your Word. Psalms 119:28 God’s Word is the strength that keeps us going forward, hopeful about the future, and praising Him. God’s Word guides us: Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path. You may need to know the next step to take in your life, know that God’s Word can guide you and Jesus, your Good Shepherd, is ready to lead you by the still waters and the green pastures.
