Isaiah 11:1-16
A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse; from his roots a Branch will bear fruit. The Spirit of the Lord will rest on him— the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of might, the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the Lord— and he will delight in the fear of the Lord.
Righteousness will be his belt and faithfulness the sash around his waist.
They will neither harm nor destroy on all my holy mountain, for the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.
In that day the Root of Jesse will stand as a banner for the peoples; the nations will rally to him, and his resting place will be glorious. In that day the Lord will reach out his hand a second time to reclaim the surviving remnant of his people from Assyria, from Lower Egypt, from Upper Egypt, from Cush, from Elam, from Babylonia, from Hamath and from the islands of the Mediterranean.
There will be a highway for the remnant of his people that is left from Assyria, as there was for Israel when they came up from Egypt.
Why?
The Lord arranged a shoot coming up from the stump of Jesse, Jesus Christ. who has the spirit of the Lord, the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of might, the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the Lord.
I am nothing but hope the Holy Spirit gives me a mind to fear of the Lord.
Jesus has all of the Spirit God has given.
In that day: the time is in hands of the Lord, No one knows when or what will come. But I know that the Lord loves us.
How?
May the Holy Spirit be my reminder and give me the wisdom to understand the way God's leading and the Word reminds me.
