Grace Community Church - Nashville Grace Community Church - Nashville

God stands before us in Jesus Christ and says, “Here I am.” Now we must respond to him. In this chapter, we see two responses to God from two kinds of people that lead to two different outcomes. The rebellious turn from him and go their own way. Their way leads to death. The faithful remnant live by faith and are promised the new world to come. Christ stands before you today. Follow him.
Grace Community Church exists to build spiritually healthy people for ministry in the world. One of the ways that we pursue this mission is by gathering each Sunday for corporate worship, prayer, and biblical teaching. The corporate nature of this gathering is both edifying to the believer and a witness of God’s grace to the world. Sermon speaker is Scott Patty unless otherwise noted.

What is revival? What is it not? Scott and Josh glean this and more from Isaiah 62-64.

As we approach the end of Isaiah, it is as if an intercessor looks back on all that has been prophesied previously and offers up a loud cry to God, “Oh that you would rend the heavens and come down!” This is a prayer for revival. In light of the people’s sin and the discipline from the Lord, the grace extended and the call to repentance, and the promise of the Messiah who will bring a new and blessed future, the intercessor fervently prays for God to work for his people. The need of our day is for a visitation from the Lord and a new generation of believers who will give themselves to prayer.

Isaiah 61 prophesies the coming of an Anointed One who will preach good news. As history unfolds, we see this One is Jesus Christ. We also see that Jesus accomplished what he proclaimed. He ushered in the age of grace with its open door to all who repent and believe. New, spiritual life is the gift he offers in word and grants by grace. He opens eyes to see and sets souls free. First, let us receive this Preacher and respond to his word. Then, let us together be on mission with him in the proclamation of the good news.
