"They shall not labor in vain, nor bring forth children for trouble; for they shall be the descendents of the blessed of the Lord, and their offspring with them. It shall come to pass that before they call, I will answer; and while they are still speaking, I will hear.– Isaiah 65:23-24
This passage prophesies of the glorious reign of Jesus Christ in the new world that is yet to come. In that era God will so intimately be involved with his people that he will automatically anticipate anything that they might request of Him. In one translation of verse 24, God even says "I will answer their prayers before they finish praying".
That's just the way a loving father is.
Good parents do something similar almost daily. A concerned mother knows that when her daughter comes home from school, she's going to want her favorite snack when she gets home, so she prepares it in advance. As soon as the girl says, "Mommy..," the mother responds with, "It's on the counter top", And a smile breaks out on the child's face. If earthly parents can be that way with their offspring, how much more the omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipresent God! He knows what we need before we do. Such compassionate oversight is not just for the kingdom to come; it is a promise that both we and our offspring can claim right now.
PRAYER DECLARATION
LORD GOD, I CONFESS THAT MY CHILD AND I ARE BLESSED AND THAT YOU ARE WATCHING OVER US CONSTANTLY – EVER ANTICIPATING OUR FUTURE NEEDS. YOU PROMISED THAT BEFORE WE CALL UPON YOU, THE ANSWER WILL BE SENT. I CLAIM THAT KIND OF DIVINE OVERSIGHT FOR MY CHILDREN. MAY THEY NEVER FACE ANYTHING IN LIFE WITHOUT YOUR GRACE AND PROVISION BEING SUPPLIED AHEAD OF TIME AND MANIFESTING RIGHT WHEN IT IS NEEDED. IN THE NAME OF JESUS, AMEN. (Let it be so)!
