The Weightiness of the Wait

Isaiah 53:5

1. Jesus was worth the wait.
   1. Because of God’s promises. Genesis 12:3
   2. Because the law of God was overwhelming. Leviticus 27:34
   3. Because Jesus redeemed us from the curse of the law. Galatians 3:10-14
2. We are worth the weight.
   1. He wants to dwell with us. Exodus 25:8
   2. He wants to save us. John 3:16-17
   3. He loves us. Romans 5:8
3. The weight of the wait.
   1. Go and tell. Matthew 28:19-20a
   2. Go and help. Matthew 25:40
   3. Go and meet. Hebrews 10:25

When weight is dispersed among many, the load is lighter and easier to bare.
