Mighty to Save

 

“It is I who speak in righteousness, mighty to save.” Isaiah 63:1

 If what this verse says were easy to do, everyone would be doing it.

Saving a lost soul is no easy task:

It requires a complete reversing of the spiritual laws of sin and death.
It requires the undoing of a curse.
It requires the regeneration of a dead spirit.
It requires the death of a truly innocent man on behalf of the guilty, and then the resurrection of the innocent man from death so that sin, Satan and the grave won’t have the last word.

Like I said: If this were easy, everyone would be doing it.

There was nothing any of us could to do reverse the course of our rebellious spirits before God. We were all doomed to an eternity of justice in Hell, and we were powerless to stop it.

But God, the one who speaks righteousness, is more than mighty enough to pull it off.

Seven hundred years before Jesus walked the earth Isaiah gave us a promise:

God is mighty to save.

Mighty to overcome sin and Satan.

Mighty to beat death.

Mighty to save you and me. Praise his name!

Lord God, we thank you and praise you that you are mighty enough to do for us all that we cannot do for ourselves. Thank you Father. We bless your name.
