JOY to the world
A couple days ago, I shared Isaiah 55 from The Message… you can read about it here.
Look at how beautifully it fits into the story of Jesus.
{Surprise, surprise!}
“Listen carefully to my life-giving, life-nourishing WORDS.
Listen that you may LIVE.”
Isaiah 55:3
“So will the WORDS that come out of My mouth not come back empty-handed.
They’ll do the work I sent them to do,
they’ll complete the assignment I gave them.”
Isaiah 55:8-11
“And the WORD became flesh…
and dwelt among us {Immanuel! God With Us!}
and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father,
full of grace and truth.”
John 1:14
God’s Word… becoming flesh in Jesus will not come back empty-handed.
So you’ll go out in joy,
you’ll be let into a whole and complete life.
A thrill of HOPE… A weary world rejoices!
JOY to the world ~ The Word became flesh and is here!
Immanuel!
