The Suffering Servant

The Suffering Servant | Isaiah 42:1–9

As we pause in our walk through the Gospel of Mark, we’re taking time to reflect on the weight of what’s happening with Jesus. Israel longed for conquest, but God’s covenant promise of deliverance came in a very different way—through His Servant.

In this message from Isaiah 42, we see:

The Servant has the Spirit of God (v.1)

The Servant brings true justice (vv.1–4)

The Servant acts with God’s authority (vv.5–9)

Unlike the Pharisees and Jews who missed Him, we want to strengthen our faith in Jesus—the Spirit-filled Son, the gentle and compassionate King, the covenant-keeping Light to the nations.

Big Idea: God sends His Suffering Servant, Jesus, to bring true justice and eternal restoration.
