Tell your children of it ... and let your children tell their children ...
I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten ...
You shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, and praise the name of the Lord your God, who has dealt wondrously with you. And my people shall never again be put to shame.
The Lord gave me this promise in December 2008 when I was at the deepest point of a time with depression, anxiety attacks, insomnia and an abusive relationship of the worst kind. And lately he has been speaking about executing justice towards me, saying that there will be justice for all the wrongs committed against me in the past. The cool thing is that I do not have to fight for that justice or for my right, but Jesus is my glorious warrior. This morning I was reminded of this promise and I can see how it is coming to pass right now. Jesus, my warrior king, is giving me back the years that the swarming locust has eaten.
(Joel 1:3; 2:19, 25-26)
