Isaiah 42: 1-4 (ESV)
“Behold my servant, whom I uphold, my chosen, in whom my soul delights; I have put my Spirit upon him; he will bring forth justice to the nations. He will not cry aloud or lift up his voice, or make it heard in the street; a bruised reed he will not break, and a faintly burning wick he will not quench; he will faithfully bring forth justice. He will not grow faint or be discouraged till he has established justice in the earth; and the coastlands wait for his law.”
In verses 1-4 from Isaiah 42, we find another prophecy about Jesus Christ from the prophet Isaiah. Isaiah prophesies about a servant from Father-God who delights his soul. The servant has the Holy Spirit inside of him and will bring forth justice to the world. Isaiah then talks about the gentleness of this servant, but one who will not grow faint or be discouraged in his mission from Father-God.
I love this description of Jesus Christ from these verses in Isaiah because they accurately describe who Jesus was during his ministry on earth. Jesus was sinless and was so gentle with the sinners he ministered to and healed. These verses also tell us how to emulate a servant of Father-God. We need to make sure that everything we do and think delights our Father-God. We need to be sure we are always filled with the Holy Spirit and are always consulting with the Holy Spirit for every decision, so we are always following Father-God’s plan for our life. Isaiah also tells us to be humble, gentle, and to treat people with respect. And finally, we need to have unwavering commitment in our faith and our trust in Father-God and his mission and plan for our life and for the world.
If you enjoyed reading my thoughts on these Bible verses, and you want to have a role model for how to be a servant of Father-God through your faith in Jesus Christ, please pray this prayer out loud:
Heavenly Father, I want to give you my Life. Forgive me of all of my sins. Wash me in your blood. I believe in my heart You raised Jesus from the dead. I confess with my mouth Jesus is my Lord and Savior. Right now, I receive forgiveness by the blood of Jesus. I am saved, I am forgiven, I am clean, in Jesus’ name, Amen.
If you prayed this prayer, welcome to the family of Father-God! Do yourself a favor and find and join a Holy Spirit filled, full Gospel, Bible-based church where you can hear the words of Father-God preached and experience signs, wonders, and miracles in your life.
