Nehemiah 6:1-19; Zechariah 1:1-21; Revelation 11:1-19
Behold! My Servant whom I uphold, My Elect One in whom My soul delights! Isaiah 42:1, NKJV
God calls us to look at and consider His Servant, the Lord Jesus Christ. He is the One who delights the Father’s soul and fully finished the ministry He was sent to fulfill. This verse tells us that the perfect Servant was upheld by God. As we serve, how much more do we need to be upheld by God? We need to be completely dependent upon Him, looking to Him for every need and having no confidence in ourselves. May we allow our God to uphold us in every area of our life. —Jennifer Flokstra
Looking into Jesus, wond’ringly we trace
Heights of power and glory, depths of love and grace.
Vistas far unfolding, ever stretch before,
As we gaze, beholding, ever more and more. —Frances R. Havergal
