“Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes.” Isaiah 54:2

“Strengthen the cords of your tent, I would say. Strengthen the corner posts. Let every family make certain that each of the four corners are tight. Make the posts out of solid wood. Let nothing cause it to rot. Then your house will stay solid. Make certain that the foundation has been inspected. Let there be no gaps in the walls. Let your house be solidly built. Let there be no fissures or cracks. Otherwise, the enemy can creep in. Don’t give him a foothold. Guard your heart for in it there are the day springs of life.

“In this day these things are very important. Write these things on the tablets of your hearts. Write them so that they may be embedded there. Let them inscribe my spirit unto you. So then when the winds blow your house will remain strong.”
