—Isaiah 52:13-53:9
by: Kay Samuels.
The words of the song “Our God Reigns” are a reflection of today’s Scripture: “He had no stately form, He had no majesty, that we should be drawn to Him. He was despised and we took no account of Him, Yet we know that our God reigns.” Christ took on Himself the punishment for all of us and it was ugly! Yet Isaiah proclaimed, “How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news” (Isaiah 52:7, NIV). Every time I think that a King took my place on the cross, I am awed. That He suffered in my place gives me more than enough reason to worship and serve Him.
