Redeemer, Rescuer, Deliverer

 “Thy nakedness shall be uncovered, yea, thy shame shall be seen: I will take vengeance, and I will not meet thee as a man. As for our redeemer, the LORD of hosts is his name, the Holy One of Israel.”

‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭47:3-4‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Isaiah prophesies the fall of Babylon when it hadn’t yet become a powerful empire!  He says that its humiliating nakedness will be uncovered, its shame exposed and seen by all.  God will take vengeance and let no one intercede for Babylon.  We have a Redeemer.  Yahweh is His Name, the Commander of Angel Armies, the Holy One of Israel!  Although Babylon fell historically, the Babylonian system in the church is also falling.  Old concepts are crumbling and being swept away as God exposes our impurity.  Yet the Redeemer stands ready to restore and revive those with hungry, passionate hearts for God.  Our Redeemer is our rescuer and deliverer Who has brought goodness and honour back to His family - those who believe in the finished work of the Cross.  Thank You Jesus our Kinsman Redeemer!
