Isaiah 25:9

Copyright Ó 2015 J. Neely
Isaiah 25:9

9 And it shall be said ['amar] in that day [yowm], Lo, this is our God ['elohiym]; we have waited [qavah] for him, and he will save [yasha`] us: this is the LORD [Y@hovah]; we have waited [qavah] for him, we will be glad [giyl] and rejoice [samach] in his salvation [y@shuw`ah].KJV-Interlinear

9 It will be said on that day, “Behold, this is our God; we have waited for him, that he might save us. This is the LORD; we have waited for him; let us be glad and rejoice in his salvation.”   ESV

In that day, refers to a specific day, notably in the end times at the Second Advent, but it also refers to any notable day wherein a person recognizes this truth within the scope of their own life.

Jesus Christ is God.  He was born into this world as a man, creating the one and only unique person in all of existence.

When an individual recognizes the benefits and blessings of salvation and believes in Christ then this sentiment becomes a part of their feelings in discovering Christ.

When an individual recognizes Bible doctrine and learns doctrine and recognizes the value and blessings that are incorporated in growing up spiritually, then this sentiment becomes a part of their feelings in discovering Bible doctrine, which is also Christ as the written word.

When an individual one day actually experiences the resurrection, then this sentiment becomes a part of their feelings in discovering the meaning and purpose of their life, which is courtesy of Jesus Christ.

But in the final days of history and those believers who have been patiently waiting through the most horrible times in all of human history, and when Christ actually returns for all to witness, then this sentiment will become an overwhelming part of their recognition of the phenomenal realities of life and the ultimate truth and reality of Christ and all of Gods promises.

In that time the emotional response will be overwhelming.  The lifting of the burdens and terrors of life will be relieving.

The huge removal of the heavy weights of life will be beyond words of expression.
