前言:

以赛亚书第12章是回顾过去,也是展望未来的赞美诗。所以先知以赛亚告诉我们,现在就要来称谢感恩神的美好;而且感恩不只藏在心中,更是要传扬神的美好。

一、称谢神拯救的恩典(V1-2)

这段经文是一个蒙恩得救的人,从心里发出对神的称谢感恩。

1.怒气转消又安慰我 (V1)

这里总结了神的怒气已经向百姓转消。不管神发再大的怒气,神的管教或苦难背后最终是要拯救我们;而且只要我们悔改,神必要来安慰我们,因为神是怜悯体恤我们的神!所以先知说,到那日你一定会感谢神的!

2. 因为神是我的力量(V2)

摩西带领以色列子民靠神过了红海,就在红海边上唱的诗歌:。。。你是我的力量,是我的诗歌,是我的拯救。。。(出15:2)。

神帮助了摩西、大卫、保罗。。。,帮助了无数跟我们不认识、但和我们同样蒙恩的人。所以神过去怎样拯救祂的百姓,今天照样会拯救你跟我。

二、向万民传扬神救恩(V3-5)

1.神是一切供应源头(V3)

主耶稣是我们真正救恩的泉源,所以主耶稣才会这样应许:人若喝我所赐的水,就永远不渴。我所赐的水,要是在他里面成为泉源,直涌到永生。(约4:14)

得了神的救恩,忠心跟随神必有一切的供应!在神够用的恩典中,我们也因此能成为他人的祝福!

2.欢喜传扬神的美好(V4-5)

如果一个人真正经历了救恩,他会迫不及待地传扬神的美好。特别是当我们经过许多困苦,神替我们都解决,并拯救翻转我们的生命,我们当然会非常高兴地不断传扬神!

总结:都当称谢传扬神(V6)

让我们身边的人知道神乃为至大!让人看见我们的行事为人,然后明白神在人身上的转化大能!让我们的见证显明白神是伟大的神!

Isaiah 12: Let us all give thanks and preach of God

Speaker: IP Daniel Kew + Rev David Tan

Introduction:

Isaiah 12 is a review of the past and a look into the future. So the prophet Isaiah tells us to come now to give thanks for the goodness of God; and to give thanks not only to hide it in our hearts, but to spread the goodness of God.

1. Give thanks to God for His saving grace (V1-2)

This passage is a praise and thanksgiving to God from the heart of a person who has been saved by grace.

(1) Anger was turned away and comfort me (V1)

It is summarized here that God's anger has been turned against the people. No matter how great God's anger is, God's discipline or suffering is ultimately to save us; and God will come to comfort us if we repent, for God is a merciful and compassionate God! That is why the prophet said, "You will thank God in that day!

(2) God is my salvation

The psalm that Moses sang on the Red Sea when he led the people of Israel across it by God:.... The LORD is my strength and song, And He has become my salvation... (Ex. 15:2). God helped Moses, David, Paul. He has helped countless people we don't know, but who are equally blessed as we are. So as God saved His people in the past, so He will save you and me today.

2. Proclaiming God's salvation to the nations (V3-5)

(1) God is the source of all provision (V3)

Jesus is the source of our true salvation, which is why He promised: Whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. The water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.” (Jn. 4:14) Having received God's salvation, faithful following of God will provide everything! And in God's sufficient grace, we can thus be a blessing to others!

(2) Joyfully proclaiming the goodness of God (V4-5)

If a person has truly experienced salvation, he will be eager to preach the goodness of God. Especially when we go through many hardships and God solves them all for us and saves and turns our lives around, we will certainly be very happy to keep preaching about God!

Conclusion: Let us all give thanks and preach of God

Let those around us know that God is the greatest!Let people see us as we are and then understand the transforming power of God in man! Let our testimony show that God is a great God!
