SCRIPTURE
Isaiah 43: 16-21
16
Thus says the LORD, who makes a way in the sea, a path in the mighty waters, 17
who brings out chariot and horse, army and warrior; they lie down, they cannot
rise, they are extinguished, quenched like a wick: 18 Do not remember
the former things, or consider the things of old. 19 I am about to do
a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in
the wilderness and rivers in the desert. 20 The wild animals will
honor me, the jackals and the ostriches; for I give water in the wilderness,
rivers in the desert, to give drink to my chosen people, 21 the
people whom I formed for myself so that they might declare my praise.
