What a wonderful day of rejoicing that was for the Jews! Not only that, but many of the surrounding people saw the Jews\u2019 deliverance and \u201cbecame Jews\u201d themselves. If we live our lives as God intends us to, people around us will see that we are different and want to know the peace of God as well. This is when there will be a listening ear and a ready heart to hear what God says to them.<\/p>\n<p>It will be the same for all of God\u2019s people at the end of time too, to see all wrongs righted and evil put away for ever. What great rejoicing there will be in heaven in that day! But before that time comes, it is up to God\u2019s people to put right as much as they can of wrong in their lives and families now, so there will be no shame when they see the Lord face to face. <em>(1 John 2:28)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>What a wonderful day when wrong is put right, \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 When there\u2019s\u00a0 day without end\u00a0 and no more dark night; \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/em><\/strong><strong><em>The master of evil no more to be seen, \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 We can&#8217;t understand what\u00a0 this will all\u00a0 mean!!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>***\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 ***\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 ***<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Peace for God\u2019s People.
