Sermon Notes for 12/14/2025

TITLE: An Invitation for Joy

SCRIPTURE: Isaiah 55

True joy begins when we come to the feast - when we accept His invitation!

Joy Begins with an Invitation (v1-2)

• God is calling those who have nothing and offers them everything!
• God’s invitation includes limitless grace!
• It’s a long-term, long-standing invitation

Joy Grows as We Align with God’s Word (v3-11)

• “Incline your ear… Listen, that you may live…”
• God’s Word is life-changing!
• God’s covenant with David (2 Samuel 7:12-16)
• God’s covenant with Israel (Jeremiah 31:31-34)
• We are part of the nation that will run to Israel
• God’s word, which goes out of His mouth, will not return empty! Jesus is the Word (John 6:6)

Joy Emerges as God Transforms Us (12-13)

• “For you will go out with joy and be led in peace…”
• The earth rejoices in our transformation
• All heaven rejoices as we accept God’s invitation! (Luke 15:10)

God invites us to come to the water, to listen to Him and live, to return to Him, and rejoice in His renewing work in our lives!

Have you accepted His invitation?
