The Wonder of Joy

In week three of The Wonder of It All, our Advent series, Pastor Orlando Cabrera teaches from Isaiah 12, a song of salvation God gave His people in the middle of their desolation. Just as new life grew from devastation, God promised that a shoot would spring up from the stump of Jesse, and that promise was fulfilled in Jesus. Because Christ drank the cup of God’s wrath in our place, God’s anger has turned away and He comforts us. The Lord is our strength and our song, and with joy we can draw water from the wells of salvation. That joy can’t be taken away.
