Rev. David Andrus, pastor of Abiding Savior Lutheran Church in St. Louis and Not-Alone.net Ministries, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Isaiah 50.
“Morning by morning he awakens; he awakens my ear to hear as those who are taught.” Isaiah 50 proclaims that God has not divorced His people Israel. He is faithful even when we are faithless, and the remnant of Judah will not be forgotten. Judah has been disciplined through Assyria and Babylon, and he now willingly accepts the blows and the shame.
Yet even restored Judah could not overcome the idolatry of the heart. Only Christ in the flesh can awaken us to true obedience, morning by morning through baptism. Because Christ set His face like flint toward Jerusalem, we have the true torchlight of salvation to rescue us from torment.
