Isaiah 62:11. “Behold, the Lord hath proclaimed unto the end of the world, Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy salvation cometh’ Behold, His reward is with Him, and His work before Him.” THY SALVATION COMETH. Brightness shines from their righteousness, now very easily seen – Salvation obviously comes where only darkness was previously seen.
As a lamp that burns, glowing brightly to show the lost their way – Walking in light is necessarily more about what we do, then words we say.
God’s glory is seen wherever His chosen people are found – The name of Jesus is known all the whole world around. His redeemed are a crown of glory kept in the Master’s hand – A diadem of honor, His people are through all the land.
Every eye will see in His people the glory of the Lord – Finally, after so long a time, attention is paid to His Word. Salvation has finally come to pass for His chosen nation – No longer is Israel known as the land of desolation.
Similarly, we wait today though not for the salvation of the soul – The salvation of our bodies will be a fact when the Lord Himself will come. Far more important than all of this is the “Salvation of God” Himself – The joy that will accompany His coming is greater than can be told or felt.
“In the day to come, Father God, I am sure there will be delight in Thy heart when finally, the Lord Jesus Christ is recognized by all the world as the Mighty Son of God. What joy it will be to see the suffering of Israel at an end and the Lord Himself their King. What joy it will be to be a part of the Bride of Christ and to fulfill the plans of God for all the eternal ages. I praise Thee in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
