Sermons on “Isaiah”
Seeing and Hearing
Jesus speaks into our forgetfulness. He teaches us to hear his voice as he whispers to us, “I am the one who is the everlasting God. I do not faint or grow weary. I am the one who gives power to the faith and strength to the powerless. I am the one who flung the stars across heavens and I call them by name. I am the one who has named you, too. Who you are is numbered in each grain of sand. And you are called beloved.

Isaiah casts a vision of Jubilee, the year of the Lord’s favor, when that which is broken will be bound up and mourning will be transformed into praise. The Jubilee vision is fulfilled in Jesus Christ, who invites each of us to be bearers of the Good News.

True Worship
How do you experience worship? Are you filled with a sense of God’s presence? Or do you feel like you are just going through the emotions? Isaiah says that if you are not experiencing God on Sundays, your worship is not the problem. The problem is you are not seeking to live out your faith in the world. Only when you do this will you experience the abiding presence of God on Sunday morning. (Isaiah 58:1-12)
