OUR FATHER WHO EMPATHIZES WITH US
Isaiah chapter 63 verse 9 says this;
In all their distress He was distressed, And the angel of His presence saved them, In His love and in His compassion He redeemed them; And He lifted them up and carried them all the days of old.
Isaiah the prophet, in this passage, revealed 0isome truths about the nature of the Lord.
First, we see the description of a reciprocal response that the Lord has to the distress of His people. When they were distressed, God experienced distress.
Next, we see that His compassion for His people caused Him to personally intervene and save them by the Angel of His Presence. He redeemed His people and He bore them up and carried them.
Such is the love of God for us. He empathizes with us and our distress is mirrored in Him and He moves by His great power to save us.
Amen.
