The prophet Isaiah delivered the message of the coming Lord, 400 years before He arrived. An often missed description of the coming Lord is found in verse 15 of Isaiah 52.<\/p>\n
he will sprinkle many nations (Isaiah 52:15)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The verb, sprinkle, seems like a strange word to describe what the Lord’s servant is going to do. However, in this case it’s referring to the sprinkling that happens over and in front of the altar.<\/p>\n
He shall sprinkle some of the blood on it with his finger seven times to cleanse it and to consecrate it from the uncleanness of the Israelites. (Leviticus 16:19)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The Lord’s servant spoken about in the prophecy of Isaiah was not a man of might but a man of redemption and salvation. He shed His blood and made atonement for all peoples, once and for all. There is no doubt that Jesus came for every individual, not the select few. As sure as there is breath in your lungs, God is calling to you to live in the light of the Lord.<\/p>\n
