Stubborn Hope
Session 9.04 Starter
Podcast
Introduction
Today’s text is written to assure the people that even though they will experience this time of darkness, a time is coming when God will break in to shine a great light. When we feel like we are living in the darkness, we have a tendency to despair and this is what the prophet did not want to happen. What can we learn from the prophet about our source of hope in times of darkness?
Scripture: Isaiah 9:1-4
But there will be no gloom for those who were in anguish. In the former time he brought into contempt the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, but in the latter time he will make glorious the way of the sea, the land beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations.
The people who walked in darkness
have seen a great light;
those who lived in a land of deep darkness—
on them light has shined.
