Isaiah 61

Isaiah 61

In this study, we immediately see the work of the trinity as the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are described as being a part of both the first and second coming of Jesus Christ.Next, we see the first and second advents of Jesus laid out for us. Jesus, in Luke 4:16-21, confirmed the portion of this passage that speaks of His first coming. The bible will always be the best commentary on the bible.As we know, every prophesy contained in the Old Testament concerning the first coming of Jesus Christ was fulfilled precisely. This is an indisputable fact. Knowing that every prophesy concerning the first coming of Jesus was fulfilled exactly, we can know for a certainty that every prophesy concerning his second coming will be fulfilled without question.Jesus is coming again according to the scriptures. How does this impact the way we are living for Jesus today?Jesus commands us to live in full obedience to His word regardless of cost or consequence. We are not to tolerate compromise or corruption as it leads to backsliding, apostasy and full blown deception. We are not to fear anything other than God. We are to be faithful unto death. And we must not deny the name of Jesus.Are we truly living for Jesus?Maranatha

Chapter 61
1 The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;
3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.
4 And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.
5 And strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and the sons of the alien shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers.
6 But ye shall be named the Priests of the LORD: men shall call you the Ministers of our God: ye shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory shall ye boast yourselves.
7 For your shame ye shall have double; and for confusion they shall rejoice in their portion: therefore in their land they shall possess the double: everlasting joy shall be unto them.
8 For I the LORD love judgment, I hate robbery for burnt offering; and I will direct their work in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.
9 And their seed shall be known among the Gentiles, and their offspring among the people: all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which the LORD hath blessed.
10 I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels.
11 For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.
