Scripture Union Daily Guide 17 May 2024 – The Ministry of the Messiah

Daily Guide Devotional For Today 17th May 2024 (Friday)

TOPIC: THE MINISTRY OF THE MESSIAH
OPENING PRAYER: Help me to understand the exceeding greatness of your power as I read through this passage, dear Lord.
SCRIPTURE: ISAIAH 61:1-11

Question(s) for Reflection
* Q 1: What does the passage teach about God the Father, or God the Son or God the Holy Spirit?
* Q7: What truth is God revealing to me in this passage?

Scripture Union Daily Guide 17 May 2024 OUTLINE

Read vs.1-3 again and compare it with the data in the Gospels. Observe how everything prophesied in these verses were fulfilled in Christ. These verses comprehensively summarized the ministry and mission of the Messiah (Luke 4:16-21). He brought light, liberty, healing, and comfort to our world (John 1:4-5; Luke 19:10; Mark 7:37). What was it that enabled the Messiah to carry out and accomplish His mission (v.1)?

Vs.4-9 list many wonderful restoration promises; aliens will serve the people of God, they will receive double for their disgrace (Job 42:10) and their prosperity will be evident to all, while they will be free to serve God as priests and ministers. We are now God’s priests and ministers, the people who are to carry on with the mission of the Messiah (Matthew 28:19-20). And He has given us the Holy Spirit to help us (Acts 1:8; John 16:13-14). But are our lives showing evidence of God’s presence?

This prophecy by Isaiah was fulfilled in Christ 400 years after it was given. The passage of time cannot nullify the word of God over our lives. Let’s keep on believing! (Isaiah 55:10-11; Luke 21:33).

* Any new insight or reinforcement of what you already know?

Closing Prayer
Dear heavenly Father, fill me afresh with power of your Holy Spirit, so that I can be an effective minister for you in my generation.
Offer a prayer of faith in line with 2 Corinthians 5:7
“For we walk by faith, not by sight”
