So do not fear, for I am with you;
Isaiah 41:10
do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Isaiah 53:5
But he was pierced for our rebellion,
Isaiah 53:5 NLT
crushed for our sins.
He was beaten so we could be whole.
He was whipped so we could be healed.
What always strikes me most about these words is that they were written around 500 years in advance of Christ’s birth by Isaiah.
I find the fact that Isaiah wrote about Christ in such detail in advance of Him coming and then for his prophecies to be fulfilled by Jesus, strengthens my faith immeasurably.
Isaiah 46:4
Even to your old age and gray hairs
Isaiah 46:4
I am he, I am he who will sustain you.
I have made you and I will carry you;
I will sustain you and I will rescue you.
Isaiah 53:5-6
New International Version
But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed. We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all.
Isaiah 53:5-6
Isaiah 55:8-9
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,”
declares the Lord.“As the heavens are higher than the earth,
Isaiah 55:8-9
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.
