There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God.

God is in the midst of (that city) . . . God shall help her and that right early.
Psalm 46: v 4, 5

Before any were born; right early—the Father was planning Easter morning.

His predestination of us would require a cross. He took that upon Himself—before the worlds were created—right early.

Easter was a surprise to even His closest followers. “Eye could not have seen” (1 Corinthians 2:9). No one has or could have invented what God would reveal. His Gospel, only the Spirit alone can make understood.

Only partially will we comprehend that God is Love. Love desires to forgive, to restore, to fine tune us. What the Lord has prepared for those who love Him will astonish. Jesus is astonishing.

He who invites us to “Come unto Him,” does not measure us by what we’ve made of our lives. He measures us by what He has to freely give. We must receive.

His salvation more than fixes us: Right early, and every single time we turn back to Him. Unhappiness serves as a reminder.

Only in the Bible do we hear that God loves us. No religion or philosophy dares to promise with certainty that God wills to save us, and right early. God is the ever-ready Friend to sinners.

Only from the Bible and by the Spirit’s teaching do we hear about a gladness river already flowing. Will we plunge and be immersed by Love? That IS what happened when we first believed – that is what happens when we are anointed, baptized, and filled over and again with His Spirit.

We were meant to be immersed – baptized with the Holy Spirit – His workmanship our gain – His desire for us. “Would you be made whole?” He asks. “Yes, Lord,” we answer. “Receive ye the Holy Ghost – the cleansing blood of my Son; turn from your wicked way, enter my River so I can help you. I prepared this ‘right early’ for you.”

We need not be caught by surprise: God is near: we may turn immediately to Him: He will help us. He will cause us to be “New creatures” – again. Run quickly back to your “First Love.” God IS love.

We must be born again. And we may be restored again. We are privileged people. (John 3:7)

When we turn or return to Him we are turning to happiness; and what about our circumstances? We let God take our mess and make of it a Gospel message.

So, we abide faithful and full of hope. We eagerly “Look up.” Our redemption draws near!” Weary in our bodies, youthful in our spirits—the Lord’s workmanship.

Soon, His River will pour over us in the eternal city where tears will have no occasion and gladness will require no faith. “God is in that city.”

He was with me all the way.
