"The Angel Said To Mary, You Shall Conceive And Call Him Jesus"
Reference: Isaiah Chapter 49
He was given a name above all names. His name shall be called Jesus, for He shall save His people from their sins.
Matthew 1:21-23 "And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for He shall save his people from their sins. [22] Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, [23] Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call His name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us."
He shall save his people from their sins. He shall move them from the sinful blood of the first Adam to the righteous blood of the second Adam.
Like Jeremiah, He was called and sanctified by the Father before His advent.
John 10:36 "Say ye of Him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?"
He was sanctified by the Father before He was in the womb of Mary.
Jeremiah 1:5 "Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations."
You were called, sanctified, and ordained to be a witness of God to your generation, even before you were formed in your mother's womb.
Isaiah writes about Him thousands of years before His birth.
Let's read.
Isaiah 49:1 "Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name."
The Word became flesh in the womb, and dwelled among us. He is Emmanuel, God with man.
We continue our reading.
Isaiah 49:2 "And he hath made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of his hand hath he hid me, and made me a polished shaft; in his quiver hath he hid me;"
He is the Word, the double-edged, sharp sword of God. He is the Sword of the Spirit.
Ephesians 6:17 "And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God"
The sword of the Spirit is the Name Jesus Christ.
We continue our reading.
Isaiah 49:3-6 "And said unto me, Thou art my servant, O Israel, in whom I will be glorified. [4] Then I said, I have laboured in vain, I have spent my strength for nought, and in vain: yet surely my judgment is with the LORD, and my work with my God. [5] And now, saith the LORD that formed me from the womb to be his servant, to bring Jacob again to him, Though Israel be not gathered, yet shall I be glorious in the eyes of the LORD, and my God shall be my strength. [6] And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth."
Israel as a nation did not immediately run to Him as the Light of Israel. God has made Him the Light of the world, and the Jew or Gentile believer is the one that has embraced the Light.
Today, He is the Light of the world. To the Jew, to the Gentile, to the Caucasian, to the African, to the Chinese, to the Australian, no matter what your background is, He is the Light of the world. He is the new blood of the world, for everybody in the blood of the first Adam, to come and find safety in His blood.
We continue our reading.
Isaiah 49:7-8 "Thus saith the LORD, the Redeemer of Israel, and his Holy One, to him whom man despiseth, to him whom the nation abhorreth, to a servant of rulers, Kings shall see and arise, princes also shall worship, because of the LORD that is faithful, and the Holy One of Israel, and he shall choose thee. [8] Thus saith the LORD, In an acceptable time have I heard thee, and in a day of salvation have I helped thee: and I will preserve thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, to establish the earth, to cause to inherit the desolate heritages;"
He is the new covenant replacing the old covenant between God and the first Adam. The old covenant was between God and the seeds of Adam, through the first man Adam. The new covenant is between God and the seeds of Jesus Christ, the second Adam.
We continue our reading.
Isaiah 49:9-12 "That thou mayest say to the prisoners, Go forth; to them that are in darkness, Shew yourselves. They shall feed in the ways, and their pastures shall be in all high places. [10] They shall not hunger nor thirst; neither shall the heat nor sun smite them: for he that hath mercy on them shall lead them, even by the springs of water shall he guide them. [11] And I will make all my mountains a way, and my highways shall be exalted. [12] Behold, these shall come from far: and, lo, these from the north and from the west; and these from the land of Sinim."
Every seed of the first Adam, was imprisoned in the first blood by Satan, but the second Adam freed all prisoners by His blood. Those that hunger and thirst in the blood of the first Adam shall no longer. They are fed and provided water out of the fountain of the second Adam. The sun of the world shall not smite them, for they are covered by the shadow of the second Adam.
We continue our reading.
Isaiah 49:13-16 "Sing, O heavens; and be joyful, O earth; and break forth into singing, O mountains: for the LORD hath comforted his people, and will have mercy upon his afflicted. [14] But Zion said, The LORD hath forsaken me, and my Lord hath forgotten me. [15] Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee. [16] Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me."
The Lord has not forgotten any man or woman in the blood of the first Adam. He's opened a door for all to come out of the first Adam's blood and find a safe haven in His blood. He engraves our names upon the palms of His hand, according to our faith in the blood of the Second Adam.
We continue our reading.
Isaiah 49:17-23 "Thy children shall make haste; thy destroyers and they that made thee waste shall go forth of thee. [18] Lift up thine eyes round about, and behold: all these gather themselves together, and come to thee. As I live, saith the LORD, thou shalt surely clothe thee with them all, as with an ornament, and bind them on thee, as a bride doeth. [19] For thy waste and thy desolate places, and the land of thy destruction, shall even now be too narrow by reason of the inhabitants, and they that swallowed thee up shall be far away. [20] The children which thou shalt have, after thou hast lost the other, shall say again in thine ears, The place is too strait for me: give place to me that I may dwell. [21] Then shalt thou say in thine heart, Who hath begotten me these, seeing I have lost my children, and am desolate, a captive, and removing to and fro? and who hath brought up these? Behold, I was left alone; these, where had they been? [22] Thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I will lift up mine hand to the Gentiles, and set up my standard to the people: and they shall bring thy sons in their arms, and thy daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders. [23] And kings shall be thy nursing fathers, and their queens thy nursing mothers: they shall bow down to thee with their face toward the earth, and lick up the dust of thy feet; and thou shalt know that I am the LORD: for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me."
Every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess, both Jew and Gentile, that Jesus Christ is Lord of all.
We conclude our reading.
Isaiah 49:24-26 "Shall the prey be taken from the mighty, or the lawful captive delivered? [25] But thus saith the LORD, Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the terrible shall be delivered: for I will contend with him that contendeth with thee, and I will save thy children. [26] And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh; and they shall be drunken with their own blood, as with sweet wine: and all flesh shall know that I the LORD am thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob."
God contends with those who contend with His children and blesses those who bless His children.
Content not with the Lord. BELIEVE and confess Christ, the second Adam, as we revealed Him from the first Adam. One Savior, one Redeemer, one Light of the world, in Christ!
