OUR LORD WHOSE WISDOM LIFTED HIM FROM SERVANT TO EXALTED KING

Isaiah chapter 52 verse 13 says this;

See, my servant will act wisely; he will be raised and lifted up and highly exalted.

In this verse, the prophet Isaiah summarized the destiny of the servant of God, Jesus.

He prophesied that the  servant of God would act wisely which the Lord Jesus fulfilled by heeding every word that He, by the Spirit of God, heard from the Father. He obeyed the Father's voice even unto death and this wisdom gained Him an everlasting kingdom.

The prophecy goes on to say that God's servant would be raised and indeed He was raised from the dead. After dying on the cross for our sins, Jesus lay three days in a grave but the grave could not hold Him and He rose bodily from death and was witnessed alive by many people.

The prophecy then said that the Lord's servant would be lifted up and Jesus fulfilled this when He ascended into heaven in the sight of many people. He was lifted up into the clouds and received into heaven.

Isaiah then prophecied  that the servant of God would be highly exalted. The Lord Jesus, upon being received into heaven,  was seated at the right hand of God the Father and He was crowned as King of kings and was made the Lord over all things in heaven and on earth and under the earth.

The great and mighty Lord Jesus Christ rules His Kingdom in the midst of His enemies and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

Amen.
