About this listen

Please join us as Pastor Patrick Joyner preaches on Isaiah. Isaiah 9:1-7. Isaiah chapter 11 begins with a shoot from the stump of Jesse. It isn't normal for growth to come from a stump; stumps represent death. The entire theme of these verses in chapter 11 are things that are absolutely unlikely. As we follow the Lord and hope to see change in our life, it seems slow, often impossible. But God isn't like us, so He doesn't do things like we do, and He is full of surprises. As we continue the theme of Isaiah chapter 11, Ezekiel chapter 37, the valley of dry bones, asks the question, "Can these bones live?". As the lion seems to not be able to lie down with the lamb, God says it will happen, just as the dry bones will live. The whole point of the Messiah is to bring life where life isn't expected. Without Christ, we are in a hopeless situation, spiritual darkness, with no help at all. In Isaiah chapter 9, we see redemptive beauty.
