Salvation: A Study in Isaiahنمونہ

What does it say?

The Lord Almighty promised to send His Son to bring the nation from spiritual darkness into light and establish His kingdom in the world.

What does it mean?

Isaiah spoke of a coming Deliverer who would move the nation from the gloom of occupation and domination to a time of liberty, prosperity, and joy. Isaiah spoke of the two advents of Christ. The infinite Son of God would be born into humanity. The Deliverer is God eternal, the Prince of Peace. In His first advent, Jesus provided peace with God for all who look in faith to the Cross as payment for their sin. When He comes again to establish His Kingdom, peace, justice, and righteousness will characterize the world. God has all power and will accomplish all He has promised.

How should I respond?

God has provided everything you need to live in hope and confidence. Jesus offers wisdom and His constant presence to guide His followers toward right thinking. He is the powerful sovereign who has the ability to fulfill His plan in and through you, regardless of opposition or difficulty. He accepts and loves you unconditionally. His rule in your life can overcome strife with peace. Who is this Savior and Deliverer to you? Will you submit to Him, depend on Him, and run to Him for rest and refuge? Let the promise of His coming again fill your days with hope and peace.
