Messiah and Isaiah…
Many people seek to prove the Messiahship of Jesus through the prophecies of Isaiah and the prophets. For instance Isaiah 53 speaks about the death and the suffering of Jesus.
Although an amazing prophecy, Jesua didn’t need Isaiah 53 in order for His life to happen. He didn’t even need Isaiah. Isaiah needed Jesus. The world didn’t hear about Jesus because of Isaiah. They heard about Isaiah because of Jesus.
Most of the world knows about Moses and Abraham and David and Isaiah because of Jesus. It’s not the other way around. Indeed He used them, but He certainly didn’t need them. He is greater than that.
He doesn’t need to get approval or authority from anyone else because He is the one from whom all authority and approval comes. We who are His disciples are the same way. All who follow Him don’t need anything from this world.
We are here to give. Learn to walk in the authority and the power of the awesomeness of Jesus. Live confident. Live strong. Live sure. Live blessed. Messiah Jesus didn’t need Isaiah. Isaiah and everybody else in this universe needs Him.
The Lord is my light and my salvation— whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life — of whom shall I be afraid? Psalm 27:1
Be confident that all you need is from Heaven above. Your authority comes from Jesus. Use His power to share the Word and be the blessing that people need today.
Walk daily with God at your side!
Love always,
Ed
