WORMS

Isaiah 41:13 For I am the LORD your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you. 14 Do not be afraid, you worm Jacob, little Israel, do not fear, for I myself will help you,” declares the LORD, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. 15 “See, I will make you into a threshing sledge, new and sharp, with many teeth.  You will thresh the mountains and crush them, and reduce the hills to chaff. 

We are Reminded that God is personalHe’s gonna walk you through.  He’s going to help.  No need to fear.

We are reminded of our place, our circumstance.  We are worms.  Who needs help more that the weakest?  The most vulnerable, the softest, the one with no defense?  You cannot help yourself…God himself will.  He says it.

God is the redeemer.  God is the Holy One.

What does it mean that God is the redeemer?

It means that God sees value in you and wants you on His team, in His family, at His table, in His business.

God transforms you from the slimy one into the one that will mow down obstacles.  Changes you from the lowliest, dirtiest to the newest and sharpest.

God promises that when you are in his hands the biggest barriers are no match.  He will use you to crush the difficulty.
