The prophet Isaiah was given a glimpse of Yahweh’s suffering servant some 700 years before he was born. With prophetic eyes, he saw the Messiah’s face, which would silence kings and startle nations. In the face of Jesus Christ, we see the unexpected. But we see the face of God, which is breathtaking and beautiful in ways we never could have anticipated.
Psalm 30 directs the hearts of sinful people away from our pride and self-reliance and to look to God for deliverance. He rescues us from our enemies, diseases, and death, but also from our sinful selves. All these promises converge in Christ and his saving work on the cross.
During Lent, we follow Jesus to the cross, the fulfillment of God’s first promise of good news in the Garden of Eden for sinful humanity. He is the one who maps and forges the way back into right relationship with himself.
The grace and peace of God is multiplied in the lives of believers who continue to grow in their knowledge and experience of Jesus, who is Christ, God, Savior, and Lord.
