The King of Justice And Restoration

December 15, 2024


The prevailing story of humanity over all of history is this – we think that we are qualified to solve our problems. But history and our own lives testify to the fact that we don’t have the power to make the lasting changes we long for.

However, there is a King who was promised to us long ago in Isaiah 11:1-10. This king is Jesus, whom we eagerly anticipate this Advent season. Jesus is perfectly qualified to carry out unswerving justice. Jesus is the king who cannot be swayed by anyone or bought by anything. And Jesus gives us hope because he will fully restore all creation and the effects of sin will be no more. And we can look to this future and know we are a part of it because Jesus’s righteousness qualifies us for that future when we put our faith in him.

Are you fighting battles you can never seem to win? Take heart because you are not alone in this world. God never leaves his people in hopelessness. Christmas is God reaching down to us to give us a hope that shapes the way we live today, in light of eternity. His justice and restoration will prevail, overcoming the injustice and sin of the world.
