Read the text – Isaiah 50:4-51:16, Isaiah 52:7-10

For the sermon series, ‘Will God help is People?’, we have been discussing what Isaiah says on Christian Hardship. Ken Noakes reminds us that Jesus knows our pain. His arms are a picture of suffering, yet with those arms he will gather in the nations, break the chains of the oppressor, and gently comfort all who come to him.
