Pastor Nik takes us through Isaiah 50, looking at Jesus as the steadfast servant in suffering. We see how Jesus brings rest to weary hearts, entering into our darkness and suffering — He still holds us, and we can trust Him.
Pastor Nik takes us through the fourth servant song in Isaiah.
Mick takes us through the first Servant Song in Isaiah 42, looking at the Servant's identity (spoiler: He's Jesus!), His mission, and how we should respond to Him.
Nik takes us through the second Servant Song in Isaiah 49. We look at the Servant's calling to save, and His work to restore the cosmos and all things to Himself. Outflowing from that, we look at 4 implications for us.
Isaiah follows the great suffering Servant Song with an invitation for all who hunger and thirst to come and enjoy the benefits of knowing Christ.
Isaiah describes for us the grand humiliation of the Servant of God. But for what reason is this perfect Servant humiliated? And what will be His reward? This Lord's Day we consider the much loved and important Servant Song where we learn of the Servant's suffering.

We dive into the second staza of the famous Isaiah 53 Servant Song, and we see incredible details concerning the Servant's life and how he externally appeared to others
We begin the famous final Servant Song, focusing in on the first stanzaIsaiah 52:13-15where God introduces the Song and gives a sweeping overview of what the Servant will do
In the second Servant Song, Isaiah 49:1-7, God does something amazing. God decides that the Servant role is greater than just returning Israel and Judah to the Lord. The Servant's message is for all people - and that includes you and me.
We cover the third Servant Song, where we get to see the internal thoughts of this servant, as he curageously trusts God in the midst of suffering
We look at the "epilogue" to the second Servant Song, where provision and flourishing is promised for all of God's peoplepeople from all overin the Servant
We look at the second Servant Song, where the servant speaks to us, and he tells us how God says he is "Israel, in whom I will be glorified" and that he is made "a light for the nations."

There's a ton of debate in theological circles about whether or not God has forsaken Israel. Today we're looking at Isaiah 49 where we'll see that God will continue to be faithful to the people of Israel and His covenant with them. Likewise, we'll see that even the Gentile believers will have a role in God's plan of redemption for His people. Join us in this key study in this key chapter! DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS: 1. Have you ever felt as though you disappointed someone? How did it feel? How do you think the faithful remnant of Israel would have felt knowing that they had disappointed the Lord? 2. The podcast mentioned that Isaiah 49 contains the second “Servant Song” in the Book of Isaiah (the others are Isaiah 42, 50 and 52-3). What is a “Servant Song”? Who are these referring to? Why do we need to know that these passages are unique in the Book of Isaiah? 3. The background to Isaiah 49 is that the people have broken their covenant with God. Think back to our previous studies in this book. How has Isaiah shown the people that they have broken their covenant? 4. In verse 1, who is speaking? Quickly skim this chapter with this “speaker” in mind. How does the fact that this is the Servant speaking help us understand the heart of this chapter? 5. The opening verses of Isaiah 49 let us know that the Servant is a specific individual. What do these first few verses tell us about Him? 6. The podcast mentioned that in verse 3, the Servant is the “New Israel”. How does this give us a window into Jesus' preincarnate work among His people (in verse 4)? 7. According to verse 5, who (or what people) comprise this “New Israel”? In verse 6, who is also included in this new nation? In verse 6, why would it be too small for the New Israel to be limited to just Israel and Judah? 8. Verse 7 describes the Servant as one who is despised and abhorred by his own nation. How was this fulfilled in Jesus' earthy life? Verse 7 also says that the kings of the world will come to Him. How has that borne out to be true throughout history? 9. In verse 8, the Lord gives the Servant as a covenant for the people. Think back to our study of Isaiah 42. What covenant would this be? Glance over at Matthew 26:28. How did Jesus inaugurate the covenant? 10. Read over verses 9 to 13. What are some ways that this new nation or kingdom is described? Is this a place you would want to live? Do we see these kinds of promises in our world today? When will they be fully instituted? 11. In verse 14, why would the people be afraid that the Lord has forsaken them? What is the Lord's response in verses 15 & 16? How do these words of encouragement show God's love for His people? How did Jesus fulfill these statements in His own ministry to His people? 12. What does the Lord promise to do for the people in verses 18-23? How are they exalted in the world? How are these promises reaffirmed in other places in scripture? 13. What kind of protection does the Lord promise for His people in verses 24-26? How does this remind us to keep praying for God's people? How often do you pray for Israel? How often do you pray for Christians around the world? 14. As you think over the principles from Isaiah 49, how does this chapter help us see that God has not forgotten or forsaken His people and His covenants with them? Yet also, what role will they have in the New Israel when it is finally and fully established? Check out our Bible Study Guide on the Key Chapters of Genesis! Available on Amazon!

The New Covenant is one of the most important topics we can understand about the plan of God among people. Yet even though it's the covenant we're in right now with God, many Christians don't understand it. Today, in our study of Isaiah 42, we're going to look at one of the earliest references to the New Covenant found in the Old Testament. Join us for the key study in this key chapter! DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS: 1. Isaiah 42 continues to build on the idea that a New Kingdom is coming. In verse 1, we find out that the leader of this kingdom is also a servant. Who is He a servant of? What does that indicate about His own nature and character? 2. The podcast explained that Isaiah 42 is one of several “Servant Songs” in the book of Isaiah. The four “Servant Songs” are found in Isaiah 42, 49, 50 & 53. What is a "Servant Song”? Why is it important to know about these “Servant Songs” when interpreting these passages? 3. Look over verse 1 again. How do we see the fingerprints of the Trinity in this verse? 4. Many Jewish people say that the servant here is the nation of Israel. While that is true in Isaiah 41:8-9, what were some of the reasons given in the podcast for why Israel is not the Servant here in Isaiah 42? Why is this “new” (or different) Servant necessary? 5. Verse 1 also speaks to the nature of the reign of the Servant. What kind of kingdom He establish? 6. In verses 2 to 4, how does He go about establishing this kingdom? In these verses, does it sound like Christ's kingdom expanding through conquest? How would you say that this kingdom is being established in these verses? How do we see this prophecy working out in our world today? 7. How does verse 5 show us the accountability that all people have to God? 8. Isaiah 42 introduces one of the earliest passages in the Bible about the New Covenant. In verse 6, what covenant is God appointing the Servant to bring to the nations? According to the podcast, what is the significance of the Lord's plan to move on from the Mosaic covenant? 9. In verse 7, why does the Lord characterize people's entrance into this kingdom as having blind eyes opened and being freed from dungeons? How did Jesus echo these principles in His Gospel proclamations? 10. In verses 10 to 12, what is the atmosphere of this kingdom? 11. Verses 13 to 15 speak of a different time period in the establishment of this kingdom. Verses 2 to 4 speak of Jesus' first coming and how He works in the world now. Verses 13 to 15 speak of His Second Coming when He will judge the nations and finally and fully establish His kingdom. How are these two interactions with mankind different? Why are they so different? 12. Verses 16 to 25 speak of the spiritual condition of mankind. What is the dominant malady of people described in these verses? What are the various responses to the Lord that are given in these verses? What accounts for these differences? What does this look like in our world today? How were you once blind? How do you now see? Check out our Bible Study Guide on the Key Chapters of Genesis! Available on Amazon!

Pastor Chris discusses the second Servant Song in Isaiah, from Chapter 49 verses 1 to 13. The ‘servant' in this passage is correlated with an idealized form of Israel, and is ultimately fulfilled in Jesus Christ- by the forgiveness of sins as the restoration of the covenant to not just Israel but to all nations and peoples. When we are restored to Christ not only are we eternally secured to be with Him in heaven, and ultimately the new heaven and new earth, but also we are partnered together with God in our everyday lives so that our lives have a far deeper and more fulfilling meaning than just making money and being successful.www.cornerstonebrighton.com
