GIGO-God in , Got Out

UV 3225/10000 GIGO- God IN, GOd Out
Then your light will break out like the dawn, and your healing(restoration, new life) will quickly spring forth; Your righteousness will go before you (leading you to peace and prosperity), the glory of the Lord will be your rear guard.

Isaiah 58 v 8 ( Amplified version)

This uni-verse contains a beautiful promise to the faithful and obedient. If we break every enslaving yoke, to set free the oppressed, divide our bread with the hungry, cover the naked, share our home with the homeless, avoid every form of wicked speech and malicious actions, then this promise will be fulfilled. The Lord will continually guide and guard us. He will strengthen our bones and make us like a well watered, well fenced and fruitful garden. He will restore us from the years and the things that the locusts had eaten. He will make up for the things we have lost in life this far. He will turn our regrets into hopes and our hopes into fulfilment. Our lives become lit up like the fullness of the sun at dawn, that disperses every trace of darkness or gloom or evil or harm. Every new day becomes an opportunity to experience the goodness of the Lord in a fresh way. Every day becomes an opportunity for us to stand as evidence of the reality of the agape love of God in Christ. We become part of the Light to fight for the right.
The new life that we have through faith in Jesus is based on the hope that we have in the words of eternal life that Jesus gives us. As long as we hold onto our hope in His word, the Shalom of God or peace and prosperity will take root in our lives. Nine rivers of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness and self control flow from our hearts as we hold onto our hope in the word. These are the eternal springs that never dry, fed from the fountains of heaven. The word of our righteous and testimonial lives will go forth before us and reach even succeeding generations.

The glory of God or the absolute goodness, absolute power, the gentle presence of God, the absolute love of God envelops us. We are not consequently deterred by the odds against us in this world. The Lord covers our back from unseen dangers and threats from the spiritual and physical world. We are safely ensconced in the phalanx of His absolute security. He not only leads us at the frontline of the battles of life but He holds our rear, too. In computer language GIGO means garbage in, garbage out, meaning if we feed a wrong input , we will certainly get a wrong output. But for the believer GIGO means God in, God out, Grace in , Grace Out. Even our wrong inputs along with the light or grace of God becomes right input. He fills the gaps in our inputs and transforms the output. Jesus, the Light of the world, comes into the sinner and out comes the winner.
