Righteousness and Praise

(All Talks)Isaiah 61
Written By Natalie King

About this series

We take an in-depth look at Isaiah 61. We hope that this will be powerful series that looks at the prophecy in its immediate context, then sees it fulfilled in Jesus and finally moves to equipping us as we see Jesus’ mission being continued through His people - yet always being rooted in Him.

About this talk

Scripture: Isaiah 61:11

Just as seed sown in the ground bears fruit, God will accomplish all that Isaiah has spoken of because God is faithful and committed to being known among the nations. The pictures of eternal life here, elsewhere in the later chapters of Isaiah and in, for example, Revelation 21 are for our encouragement and motivation.
