“The Chosen Servant”
Here is My
Servant whom I have chosen, My beloved in whom My soul delights; I will put My
Spirit on Him, and He will proclaim justice to the nations. Isaiah 42:1
Jesus, the
ONLY Son of God, who God CHOSE to come to earth, NOT as a prophet, priest or
king, but as His CHOSEN SERVANT. One who
was destined to bring SALVATION to a LOST and DYING world. A world that was and still is DOOMED for
DESTRUCTION.
A SERVANT to
the SPIRITUAL NEEDS as well as the PHYSICAL NEEDS of mankind. To bring a RIGHT RELATIONSHIP between MANKIND
and their CREATOR, God. And it was
because of GOD’S UNFAILING LOVE, ABUNDANT MERCY and AMAZING GRACE, that Jesus
came to earth facing PERSECUTION and a HORRIBLE, SHAMEFUL DEATH, as God’s
CHOSEN SERVANT.
One who
could feel a TRUE LOVE and DEEP COMPASSION for even those who sought to do Him
harm and to put Him to DEATH. He
suffered TORMENT, RIDICULE, SHAME, INTENSE PHYSICAL PAIN and even SEPARATION
from His HOLY Father. And He did it in
OBEDIENCE to the WILL of His Father, God, in order for MANKIND to be SET FREE
from their sins and short-comings, and to RECEIVE AN ETERNITY in HEAVEN, and to
be able to ESCAPE HELL with ALL its HORRORS.
God sent His ONE and ONLY SON, to bring JUSTICE to ALL NATIONS, which
will be brought about in the SECOND COMING of JESUS CHRIST.
Just as God’s
WILL, for Jesus to be His CHOSEN SERVANT, He has CHOSEN those who are His TRUE
CHILDREN to be His SERVANTS to a lost and dying world. We do that by SHARING the GOOD NEWS of God’s
MERCY and GRACE for ALL people, and SHARING how they can be SET FREE from their
sins, and to be able to RECEIVE HEAVEN as their ETERNAL HOME. Are you one of God’s CHOSEN SERVANTS?
