The Salvation of our God
Isaiah 50-52; Psalms 92; 2 Peter 1
“How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, ‘Your God reigns!’...When the Lord returns to Zion, they will see it with their own eyes…The Lord will lay bare his holy arm in the sight of all the nations, and all the ends of the earth will see the salvation of our God.”
Isaiah 52:7, 8, 10
God’s salvation plan for Israel was, and is, more than the physical restoration of Jerusalem and physical return of Jews to Israel. God’s salvation plan for Israel is focused on the Lord Jesus Christ who has come and has promised to return again. Jesus alone offers forgiveness of sins and peace with God. Jesus, his life, death, resurrection, and promised second coming, is the Good News, or Gospel, we shout from every mountain top and in every corner of the earth. The Lord Jesus reigns! He alone saves, comforts, and redeems our rebellion and attempts to save ourselves.
If we know this Savior, are we, with beautified feet, bringing the Good News to the mountains and cities of our generation?
“Lord Jesus, empower and equip me to proclaim your salvation story to the nations, for your glory.”
