“In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bare them, and carried them all the days of old.”
Isaiah 63:9 KJV
Isaiah is remembering how the Lord redeemed the wandering Israelites in the desert, in love and in pity. He Himself bared and carried them. This is the prophetic picture of the Lord Jesus baring and carrying our sins, the sin of all humanity, on the Cross with love and pity and redeeming us. Even though Israel continued to rebel against the God of Israel, yet He is faithful to them. Today, the nation of Israel exists when for centuries it had ceased to exist. God is faithful to the new covenant He has made with us by the Lord Jesus, His Son. The day of reckoning is coming for all humanity if you keep on rebelling against the supreme sacrifice that Jesus made. But for those who accepted Jesus death, burial and resurrection as the substitutionary death for our sins, there is a peace that this reconciliation brings which no amount of persecution can take away. We have a hope and a future to fulfill God’s plan for each of our life with the joy of the Lord. We know that His Presence is with us in every situation with the grace and favour only He can supply. Thank You, Lord Jesus, for choosing us to reign with You now and forever!
