Today is the fist Sunday of Advent and keeping to the theme of hope, pastor Donald preaches about the "Hope in the Lord who Comes". In Isaiah 40:1-31 we read how God is working to bring our struggles to an end. While we labour in a broken world, God draws us to be closer to Him, so that we may be made perfect through God. This is a God who can bring our struggles to an end because he is sovereign. Our everlasting peerless God is all wise, and although His purpose and ways may not make sense to us, they are perfect. We must hold onto God and His promises with confidence and hope. Our God has authority over all rulers, all nations, and all of creation. Our God gives us a double portion. One to remove the guilt of our sins and another portion to remove the root of sin.
Mark 1:1-3 makes reference to the hope the the prophet Isaiah speaks of.
A voice of one calling: In the wilderness preparethe way for the Lord make straight in the deserta highway for our God.
Jesus is that hope which God promised. Please take some time to watch the sermon, "Hope in the Lord who Comes".
