Have a nice day! 🙂

I the LORD have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles; To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house.
– Isaiah 42:6-7

This is such a powerful passage it carries a tenderness and authority that speaks straight to the heart. Isaiah 42:6–7 is one of those scriptures where God isn’t just giving a command. He’s giving a promise:

“I have called you in righteousness” Your calling isn’t accidental or fragile. It’s rooted in His character, not your strength.

“I will hold your hand” This is one of the most intimate images in Scripture. God doesn’t push from behind or shout from a distance, He holds, guides, steadies, and stays close.

“I will keep you” He protects what He calls. He sustains what He begins. He guards the one He sends.

“A light to the Gentiles” This is God saying, “Your life will shine beyond your own circle.” Your obedience becomes illumination for others.

“To open blind eyes, to bring out prisoners, to free those in darkness”

This is the heart of Jesus’ ministry and the heart of every person who carries His light. It’s restoration. It’s freedom. It’s hope breaking chains.

I like this verse because it has encouraged me, and I believe that God’s light, which guides people out of dark places, will encourage them too. God has a way of sending divine angels right when they’re needed most. May your day be surrounded by the same peace and purpose reflected in this scripture.
