Isaiah: An amazing read...

"There shall come forth a shoot from the stump of Jesse, and a branch from his roots shall bear fruit. And the Spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him,.." Isaiah 11: 1- 2a
This Old Testament prophecy of Jesus is one of many in the book of Isaiah. God spoke through this prophet with specific pictures of a coming Redeemer who would conquer the enemies of God by dying for His people. (Isaiah 7,9,11,25,26,28,32,40,42,43,50,52,53,60,61 all point to Christ in types and shadows). The prophet still speaks!
