It is too small a thing for you to be my servant to restore the tribes of Jacob and bring back those of Israel I have kept. I will also make you a light to the Gentiles, that my salvation may reach to the ends of the earth. —Isaiah 49:6

A Greater Plan

by Mike Tilley

The people of God in Isaiah’s day had a limited view of God’s salvation. They thought mainly of the twelve tribes of Israel being restored. But God had a greater plan, one that would be fulfilled by his “servant,” the Lord Jesus Christ. He would be a “light to the Gentiles” and bring a salvation that would reach to the ends of the earth. Now we as a church are caught up in a plan that is greater than ourselves. May our hearts be captured by God’s larger story!

 

How to Pray:

• Pray that our church would be a light in a dark world.
• Pray that the light of the gospel will bring salvation to people around us in Baldwin Park, Audubon Park, and wherever God has placed us around the city.
