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.
Read the text – Isaiah 49:1-26
For the sermon series, ‘Will God help is People?’, we have been discussing what Isaiah says on Christian Hardship, but did Jesus himself find hardship? Ken Noakes tells us that God’s global salvation comes through the suffering servant—Jesus, the true Israel—who speaks with divine authority, endures rejection, and brings light not just to God’s people, but to the ends of the earth. We need to see the goodness and power of Jesus as the one who speaks God’s word like a sharpened sword (Rev 1), who is a covenant between God and people, and who suffers as he brings salvation to the world.

What is the value of a promise? For one, a promise can give direction as you look forward to the fulfillment of the promise. And as such it gives purpose to how we conduct ourselves as we move closer to the day that the promise is fulfilled. God’s people Israel acted on the strength of the promise that they would be delivered into a new and good land – a home. Joshua leads them by the hand of God – home. In our Bible talks, we are looking at the extraordinary book of Joshua – a book of promise and purpose. A book that points us forward to the fulfillment of the gospel promise, that in Jesus we will delivered – home. In the meantime, it gives us a clear purpose.
This talk looks at the rather poor spy work of Israel in Jericho. God is at work, even in those outside of Israel, and includes them in His people as we see the testimony of Rahab the prostitute.
