Sons To Glory
and cries out in her pangs, when she draws near the time of her
delivery, so have we been in Your sight, O Lord. We have been with
child, we have been in pain; We have as it were, given birth to wind;
We have not accomplished any deliverance in the earth, Nor have the
inhabitants of the world fallen.” (Isa. 26:17-18)
Nevertheless, the promise remains that we WILL enter “the rest” of the
Lord! “For he who has entered His rest has himself also ceased from
his works as God did from His” on the seventh day (Heb. 4:10). The
exciting part is that we have arrived at the end of the sixth day or 6,000
years of mankind’s history. We are now entering the promised 1,000

Kingdom on the earth through us for the next 1,000 years!

ashamed.” The sound of noise from the city! A voice from the temple!
The voice of the Lord, who fully repays His enemies!” (Isa. 66:5-6)
Above, we see that one of the reasons why the Lord is bringing about
the birth of His sons is to fully repay His enemies, or to cast out the
children and methods of the flesh. The very next verses explain the
birth process that the Lord will bring to pass to punish His enemies:
“Before she travailed, she gave birth; before her pain came, she
delivered a male child. Who has heard such a thing? Who has seen
