Uphold the Standard

​[Isaiah 58:12] "Those from among you shall build the old waste places; You shall raise up the foundations of many generations; And you shall be called the Repairer of the Breach, The Restorer of Streets to Dwell In."  

The first definition for breach is an act of breaking or failing to observe a law, agreement, or code of conduct. If we look around our society today, there has been a breakdown of relations with God because of the church's failure, as a body, to live up to the code of conduct as a believer.  Spiritually "a repairer of breaches" is one who restores the right way.  We have influence over those around us with our words and actions.  We can repair and rebuild walls that culture has built by upholding the values set forth by the word of God.  This week, repair and restore! Don't break down!
