Christmas Through the Eyes of Isaiah

Brandon Fisher

In a time when everything felt dark and uncertain—when war loomed, morality was crumbling, and hope seemed lost—God offered a promise that still speaks to us today. The people of Judah, led by King Ahaz, were placing their trust in the wrong things, hoping that Assyria could save them. But through Isaiah, God pointed them to the true source of hope: a coming Messiah. Jesus would be the light to break through the darkness, the joy that lifts sorrow, and the Savior who breaks the chains of bondage. He would come not just to rescue, but to reign—restoring us to God, making all things right, and establishing a kingdom of peace that will never end. In our own times of darkness or uncertainty, this same Jesus is our unshakable hope as we trust in him and wait for his return. 

Isaiah 9:1-7
