In the forty third chapter of the book of Isaiah God is speaking to a fearful nation through the prophet Isaiah. While it was true that the nation had rebelled and sinned in the eyes of the Lord that did not mean that God still did not love them. As Israel is moved to fear by the Gentile nations God wants them to remember that they belong to Him. In the first verse God tells them that He formed them, He created them, and then He tells them “Thou Art Mine.”

This morning pastor Joshua borrowed that thought from verse one and preached a message entitled “Thou Art Mine.” There have been times in each of our lives when troubles came, we allowed sin to enter our life, or the pressures of daily living overwhelmed us. In those times the enemy will try to convince you that God does not love you, nor does He care what you are going through. God however has proven His love by purchasing us, providing for us, and protecting us. We are His!
