ADVENT 2025 – WEEK 1 THE WOOD OF PROMISE Isaiah 9:1–7
Opening Reading: Genesis 3:14-15 Theme: Hope – The Promise in the Shadows
Supporting Texts: Genesis 3:15; Micah 5:2; Hebrews 10:5–7
Big Idea:
Long before Christ laid in a manger, the promise of His coming was whispered through Israel’s prophets, sung in their psalms, and carried in their long ache for redemption. Advent opens our eyes to see that hope is not an idea but a Person. One whose throne, built of promise, would one day be built of wood.
The Wood:
The Wood of Promise — The Throne of the Coming Messiah
Not yet the wood of the manger, not yet the wood of the cross; this is the wood of the throne, the ancient promise that a righteous King would arise whose rule would heal the world.
