“To all who mourn in Israel, he will give a crown of beauty for ashes, a joyous blessing instead of mourning, festive praise instead of despair. In their righteousness, they will be like great oaks that the Lord has planted for his own glory. They will rebuild the ancient ruins, repairing cities destroyed long ago. They will revive them, though they have been deserted for many generations.” (Isaiah 61:3–4 NLT) Because Jesus lives, all those who follow Him are no longer slaves to sin. And that means we’re capable of an amazing transformation. I’ve been astounded by the testimonies of certain people who tell me the way they used to be. I’ve looked at them and thought, “There’s no way they used to be that way,” because Jesus Christ has so radically changed them. Isaiah 61:3–4 promises that God “will give a crown of beauty for ashes, a joyous blessing instead of mourning, festive praise instead of despair. In their righteousness, they will be like great oaks that the Lord has planted for his own glory. They will rebuild the ancient ruins, repairing cities destroyed long ago. They will revive them, though they have been deserted for many generations” (NLT). For those who have made a mess of their life—a pile of ashes, so to speak—God says, “I will bring beauty.” For those who mourn because of the people they’ve wronged and the sins they’ve committed, God says, “I will bring joy out of it.” Only God can take a tangled mess of a life and transform it so completely that you wouldn’t even recognize the person it used to be. The Bible offers several such examples. Think of the demon-possessed man in the region of the Gerasenes who met Jesus when He got out of the boat. Luke 8 says, “For a long time he had been homeless and naked, living in the tombs outside the town. . . . Even when he was placed under guard and put in chains and shackles, he simply broke them and rushed out into the wilderness, completely under the demon’s power” (verses 27, 29 NLT). Moments later, “He was sitting at Jesus’ feet, fully clothed and perfectly sane” (verse 35 NLT). Think of Saul, the zealous defender of the Jewish faith who terrorized the early Christians. After an encounter with the risen Christ, he became the apostle Paul. He was speaking from personal experience when he wrote, “This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!” (2 Corinthians 5:17 NLT). Every such transformation gives hope to others who may still despair over the condition of their lives. If you come to Christ and say, “Lord, here I am, forgive me of my sin,” He can transform you and change you. He can take your mistakes and your sins, turn them around, and even use them for His glory. When you commit your life to Christ, putting the broken, stained, twisted pieces into His hand, He will transform it into a thing of beauty. Reflection question: What evidence of transformation can you see in your life?

The Word of the Day with Rene' Holaday for Saturday 3-7-26: Isaiah 61 (1-10--26)

When a teenager goes against their parents' wishes or gets into a disagreement, it's not like they turn their backs on their child. They allow him the room to understand his mistakes, but their love for him remains as strong as ever. In the end, it's when you open up to your parents about how you feel that they really step in to help. Our connection with God is a lot like that.  Today, Pastor Mark invites you to reconnect with your Creator. He's still right there with you, not leaving your side or letting you slip from his mind. Even if you have strayed away from God, He's patiently waiting for you to realise your mistakes and come back to Him.

During dinner with the folks, when mom whips up something special beyond the usual veggies, kids often dive into the greens first. They want to save the delicious part for last, making it a sweet ending to the meal! I did the same thing, too! Guess what? God also has some amazing food and drink just waiting for you! Today, Pastor Mark shares a delightful message about the scrumptious food and exquisite wine that every believer can look forward to in heaven. God has always offered you the very best, including His one and only Son, Jesus, to bring you salvation. Just picture how amazing the food and wine in heaven will be!

If you jump into a competition and decide to bend the rules or find a sneaky loophole, you might just get disqualified from getting the prize. When you embrace a life of obedience and align yourself with the plan that God has in store for you, just know there's a wonderful reward waiting for you in heaven. So, what's the deal if you decide to stray from the path, cheat a little, or just go off and do your own thing instead of following God? So, Pastor Mark has a little reminder for you today: don't let that heavenly reward slip away! Your salvation is secure, but remember, not following God's ways can cost you some great prizes.

The Prophetic Word for 2026 | Isaiah 61 by NoLimits Church - Sunday Messages

The Rev. Nick Lannon preaches a sermon on Isaiah 61 and 62 (in God promises to show the nations his righteousness) and John 1 (in which the apostle proclaims that grace and truth come through Jesus Christ). All of God's good work, both temporal and eternal, is accomplished through Jesus.

Thanks for watching! This sermon was preached by Dave Cook at Calvary Baptist Church on 12/24/2025 as part of our Christmas Advent sermon series. We'd love to have you join us in person or learn more about who we are.

Christmas Cheer: Joy to the World

Jim Osman delivers a powerful exposition of Isaiah 61:1-2, exploring the prophetic announcement that unto us is born a Savior who would bring deliverance from sin. This Christmas message examines how Jesus perfectly fulfilled Isaiah's prophecy, demonstrating that he was born a Savior anointed by the Spirit to proclaim good news to the afflicted and liberty to captives.Osman carefully traces how Christ's mission centers on preaching the gospel of salvation by Yahweh's grace rather than political liberation or social reform. The teaching emphasizes that Jesus was uniquely born a Savior—sent to heal the brokenhearted, proclaim freedom to prisoners of sin, and announce the favorable year of the Lord. Through meticulous exegesis, Osman shows how this passage reveals the Savior's divine commission, his Spirit-empowered ministry, and the good news of redemption he came to proclaim.This exposition demonstrates that Christ was born a Savior specifically to accomplish spiritual salvation, fulfilling Old Testament scripture and bringing hope to those enslaved by sin through the transforming power of God's grace. ★ Support this podcast ★

On this Christmas Eve, we consider again the beauty and power of the first coming of Jesus Christ and it's cosmic implications for, and beyond, our world.

“The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me, because the LORD has anointed me to bring good news to the poor.” Isaiah's words paint a vivid picture of the Messiah's mission: proclaiming liberty to captives, opening the prison to those who are bound, and announcing the year of the LORD's favor. In part 11 of our special 12-part series connecting Old Testament prophecy to New Testament fulfillment, we explore the Servant who clothes His people with garments of salvation and robes of righteousness. These words will one day be read from a synagogue scroll in Nazareth as Jesus declares that this Scripture is fulfilled in their hearing.  The Rev. Dan Eddy, pastor of Messiah Lutheran Church in Beloit, WI, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Isaiah 61:1–11.  To learn more about Messiah Lutheran, visit mlcbeloit.com. This Advent series begins by covering the last Old Testament prophet, Malachi, and then spends twelve episodes alternating between Old Testament prophecy and New Testament fulfillment, tracing God's promises from Isaiah to the birth of Christ. The series explores Emmanuel's promise, the Davidic King, John the Baptist as forerunner, and reaches its climax with the Nativity. The final episodes examine the Suffering Servant, the shadow of the cross in Christ's infancy, Isaiah's Messianic mission statement, and John's declaration that "the Word became flesh."  Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.

In this message from our From Ruin to Redemption: The Gospel According to Isaiah series, Pastor Dave Hentschel walks through Isaiah 61:1–11 to reveal God's promise of the reset we all long for. Speaking to weary hearts marked by loss, regret, captivity, and brokenness, Isaiah announces the arrival of God's Anointed Servant—the Messiah—who comes to bring good news to the poor, heal the brokenhearted, proclaim freedom for captives, and declare the year of the Lord's favor. This passage shows that God's plan is not mere improvement or reform, but full restoration: beauty instead of ashes, joy instead of mourning, and righteousness that springs up like a new Eden before all nations. Ultimately, this promised reset is fulfilled in Jesus Christ, who stands in the synagogue and declares that Isaiah's words are accomplished in Him.Isaiah 61 reminds us that we are not forever defined by what has ruined us—because in Jesus, God has come to reset, restore, and redeem.

The Lord has anointed Me to preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound. Taught at Agape Bible Church on December 21, 2025. [38 minutes]

Isaiah 61:10-1110 I delight greatly in the Lord; my soul rejoices in my God.For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of his righteousness,as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.11 For as the soil makes the sprout come up and a garden causes seeds to grow,so the Sovereign Lord will make righteousness and praise spring up before all nations.

Isaiah 61;3,7-9They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of his splendor. 7 Instead of your shame you will receive a double portion,and instead of disgrace you will rejoice in your inheritance.And so you will inherit a double portion in your land, and everlasting joy will be yours.8 “For I, the Lord, love justice; I hate robbery and wrongdoing.In my faithfulness I will reward my people and make an everlasting covenant with them.9 Their descendants will be known among the nations and their offspring among the peoples.All who see them will acknowledge that they are a people the Lord has blessed.”

Isaiah 61:3-6They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of his splendor. 4 They will rebuild the ancient ruins and restore the places long devastated;they will renew the ruined cities that have been devastated for generations.5 Strangers will shepherd your flocks; foreigners will work your fields and vineyards.6 And you will be called priests of the Lord, you will be named ministers of our God.

Isaiah 61:1,3The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor.He has sent meto comfort all who mourn,3 and provide for those who grieve in Zion—to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair.They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of his splendor.

Not much is known about the prophet Malachi, (whose name means “my messenger”), but contextual clues suggest that this was written after the exile had ended. Enthusiasm for right worship of God had waned, and Malachi exhorts the priests to honor the Lord. Uniquely, Malachi presents his prophesy using a conversational pattern between the priests and the Lord God, wherein God makes a claim, the priests respond by asking questions, and subsequently the Lord answers. This book is a mixture of indictment and hope, pointing those who are indifferent to God's ordinances to worship rightly while encouraging the faithful to stay the course and receive the Lord's favor.Malachi 1 - 1:12 . Malachi 2 - 5:05 . Malachi 3 - 10:16 . Malachi 4 - 14:36 . Isaiah 61 - 16:12 . Isaiah 62 - 19:00 .  :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by Bobby Brown, Katelyn Pridgen, Eric Williamson & the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

Pastor Mike Dahl brings a message from Isaiah 61, the same passage Jesus read announcing the beginning of his ministry—bringing good news to the poor, freeing captives, binding up the broken-hearted, and proclaiming the year of the Lord's favor.

Jesus Christ invites us to trade the ashes of our broken lives for the beauty of eternal joy with him.

In this teaching, we dive into the life-changing message of Isaiah 61 and explore what it truly means to live as people anointed, restored, and empowered by God. Jesus declared this passage fulfilled when He announced that the Kingdom of God had arrived—not as a distant hope, but as a present reality breaking into the world through Him and now through us. We look at how the gospel is not merely an escape plan but an invitation to bring heaven to earth, carrying healing, freedom, and restoration wherever we go. You'll be encouraged to lay down false identities, reject the lies of the enemy, and embrace the truth of who you are in Christ: an oak of righteousness, a priest of the Lord, and a carrier of the same Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead. This teaching invites you to remember who you are and step with boldness into the calling and authority God has given you.

"…to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of his splendor. They will rebuild the ancient ruins and restore the places long devastated…"

Fr. Mike points out that the prophecy from Isaiah 61 is fulfilled by Jesus (as described in Luke 4). In Ezekiel, Fr. Mike draws our attention to the importance of the Sabbath as the sign of the covenant with God. The readings are Isaiah 61-62, Ezekiel 20, and Proverbs 13:13-16.
