He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of His people shall He take away from off all the earth: for the LORD hath spoken it. And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our GOD; we have waited for Him, and He will save us: this is the LORD; we have waited for Him, we will be glad and rejoice in His salvation. (Isaiah 25:8-9)
Hundreds of years before Jesus came to earth as a man, He had Isaiah write this passage about Himself as our saviour. He proclaimed victory over death, an interloper and enemy we brought on ourselves when we sinned against GOD (in Adam.) But our GOD, who is rich in mercy, freely gave His only begotten Son, for the sIns of the world.
We who are in Christ celebrate this victory not only on Resurrection Sunday, but on every Lord's day in worship, praise and thanksgiving. We also look back at His sacrifice on the Cross of Calvary; and forward to His soon coming return for us, and in judgment of this sinful world every time we observe the ordinance of the Lord's Supper. We remember what He has done for us, what He is doing in us, and what He will do for us in His time; The Salvation of the Lord.
Those of you who do not yet know Him, have never experienced the new birth that comes by faith in GOD's Word, and the Lord Jesus Christ are invited to partake of GOD's free gift of Salvation. He is not willing that any should perish, and invites all who will to repent, that is surrender to GOD on His terms and receive Him that they might live eternally with GOD, not just in Heaven, but now and always.
If you are a true child of the King, share His Word with those you meet that they might hear and believe.
In Christ,
