Restoration & Salvation

Dec22

And now says the Lord, who formed Me from the womb to be His Servant, To bring Jacob back to Him, so that Israel might be gathered to Him (For I am honored in the sight of the Lord, And My God is My strength), He says, “It is too small a thing that You should be My Servant To raise up the tribes of Jacob and to restore the preserved ones of Israel; I will also make You a light of the nations So that My salvation may reach to the end of the earth.”
Isaiah‬ ‭49:5‭-‬6‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/isa.49.5.NASB1995

There is much to celebrate in the birth of Jesus Christ. He was born to restore Israel back to their God and be a Light to the rest of the world for their salvation. What a wonderful gift the Father bestowed upon the world that first Christmas.

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.
John‬ ‭3:16‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
