Isaiah 50:7

1834–1892
Baptist
SCRIPTURE

"For the Lord Jehovah will help me; therefore have I not been confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be put to shame." — Isaiah 50:7 (ASV)

For the Lord GOD will help me;

This is Christ still speaking. Though God himself, yet as the God-Man, looking to his Father for help in the dread struggle through which he went to save us, he declared, The Lord God will help me.

Therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed.

And he was not; he went through with all that he had undertaken. He drank our bitter cup until none of the dregs remained.

He bore the terrible wrath of God, which otherwise would have rested on us forever; God helped him, and he bore it all.
