Isaiah 40 brings a message of comfort in the midst of hopelessness, where he talks about God, who has pardoned the sins of His people. God, in the form of flesh, will come to dwell amongst His people and will ultimately bring an end to all troubles brought by sin. The same God whose words are final, reliable and trustworthy. He has never fail and He never will. A God who is almighty and powerful, yet compassionate to His poeple. In a world of ruthless leaders, He befriends outcasts, touches the untouchable, heals the sick, casts out demons, calms the storms, and raises the dead.

This Christmas, as we take comfort that Jesus has already come and died for our pardon, we also take the comfort in knowing that He will come again.
