13 For it was You who created my inward parts; You knit me together in my mother’s womb.
14 I will praise You because I have been remarkably and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful, and I know this very well.
15 My bones were not hidden from You when I was made in secret, when I was formed in the depths of the earth.
16 Your eyes saw me when I was formless; all my days were written in Your book and planned before a single one of them began.
Isaiah 25
8 He will destroy death forever. The Lord God will wipe away the tears from every face and remove His people’s disgrace from the whole earth, for the Lord has spoken.
Isaiah 26
3 You will keep the mind that is dependent on You in perfect peace, for it is trusting in You.
Isaiah 43
Now this is what the Lord says— the One who created you, Jacob, and the One who formed you, Israel— “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; you are Mine.
7 everyone called by My name and created for My glory. I have formed him; indeed, I have made him.”
13 Also, from today on I am He alone, and no one can take anything from My hand. I act, and who can reverse it?”
21 The people I formed for Myself will declare My praise.
Isaiah 46
10 I declare the end from the beginning, and from long ago what is not yet done, saying: My plan will take place, and I will do all My will.
Philippians 3
20 but our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. 21 He will transform the body of our humble condition into the likeness of His glorious body, by the power that enables Him to subject everything to Himself.
2 Corinthians 5
6 So, we are always confident and know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord. 7 For we walk by faith, not by sight, 8 and we are confident and satisfied to be out of the body and at home with the Lord.
1 Corinthians 15
54 When this corruptible is clothed with incorruptibility, and this mortal is clothed with immortality, then the saying that is written will take place: Death has been swallowed up in victory. 55 Death, where is your victory? Death, where is your sting?
Father, we thank You for You are gracious to us! You are perfect in ALL of Your ways! You are always faithful! We thank You for Isaiah, You created Isaiah for Your glory, You knit Isaiah together perfectly in my womb! No part of Isaiah was hidden from You as You formed him! Your eyes saw Isaiah when he was formless, all of Isaiah’s days were written in Your book and planned before a single one of them began! We can rest in this truth, Your sovereignty comforts our hearts and You give us rest!
One day You will destroy death, You wipe every tear from our faces! Although our hearts are sad because we can’t be with Isaiah right now and we hate death, we rejoice, knowing Your heart for Your children, that Isaiah is with You! Our citizenship is in heaven, and we eagerly await the day when You transform our body from its humble condition into the likeness of You glorious body! All creation groans with longing for You, and we rejoice because Isaiah is with You, where ALL creation longs to be!! We are encouraged by Your Word, Lord, we are confident and know while we are at home in the body we are away from You, Lord, and because we walk by faith we are confident and satisfied that to be out of the body is to be at home with You! We praise You, You are worthy of ALL of our praise!!
We even more so eagerly anticipate the day we will see You face to face and be in Your full presence, rejoicing and worshiping You with our precious son, Isaiah! You are our Hope, our Salvation, our Joy! In You alone are all things made new! We rest in You and stand firmly in Your promises, knowing You never change! Lord You named our precious son, and laid his name on our hearts, as Isaiah reminds us of Your salvation and Joseph because You will add to our faith through his precious life!
Thank You for Your great love for us! I know the pain of a son passing, and my mind can’t fathom the graciousness You choose to lavish upon us through Your Son, Jesus! That You chose to give Him for us, this love blows my mind knowing my own sinful heart! That Your great love would lavish this grace upon us, while so undeserving! We are in awe and tremble before You knowing how great You are! Thank You for this time we had with our precious son Isaiah, and we thank You knowing You are doing great things through Isaiah’s life! We love You, Jesus, and pray in Your holy name, amen!
