DEVOTION: Isaiah 62:1-5 English Standard Version (ESV)
Zion's Coming Salvation
62 For Zion's sake I will not keep silent,
and for Jerusalem's sake I will not be quiet,
until her righteousness goes forth as brightness,
and her salvation as a burning torch.
2 The nations shall see your righteousness,
and all the kings your glory,
and you shall be called by a new name
that the mouth of the Lord will give.
3 You shall be a crown of beauty in the hand of the Lord,
and a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
4 You shall no more be termed Forsaken,[a]
and your land shall no more be termed Desolate,[b]
but you shall be called My Delight Is in Her,[c]
and your land Married;[d]
for the Lord delights in you,
and your land shall be married.
5 For as a young man marries a young woman,
so shall your sons marry you,
and as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride,
so shall your God rejoice over you.

FREE CONFLICT RESOLUTION AND RECONCILIATION COURSE AVAILABLE ONLINE
Are you in a conflict with a brother, sister, parent, spouse, or friend? Do you want to end that conflict and gain back loved ones and friends? Do you want to mend fences and rebuild bridges? Do you want to get rid of all the bitterness, anger, and resentment that you have toward others or that someone might have toward you? Do you want to do what GOD wants you to do in your broken relationships, but you don't know where or how to start?
Ambassadors of Reconciliation has some great tools that will help to teach you and guide you through a process of doing just that at https://www.aorhope.org/ .
You can receive access to a free online course called "Conflict Resolution vs. Reconciliation" at https://www.aorhope.org/aor-gift because I sponsored your scholarship. Simply go to that link to access this on-line course about biblical reconciliation. It is excellent.
I took a challenge to sponsor scholarships for several people at St. John's, because I want as many people as possible to take this course and learn to go and be reconciled to one another! If you think it is helpful you can take the challenge yourself and nominate others!
Let me know if you take the course, so I can know how many people my donation has helped!
