Comfort Ye, Comfort Ye, My People

“Comfort Ye, Comfort Ye, My people saith the LORD” Isaiah40:1

Here in this passage God has commanded Isaiah to give comfort to the people of Judah. In the verses before He tells them of the great ruin that He will bring upon them for their sins (Isaiah 39:5-7). Even so has God declared that all men are ruined by sin. All men are spiritually dead in sins and because of this nature, men cannot come to God and they will not come to God for mercy. God declares that all men are hopeless to save themselves by either law, religion, or even by the will of man. (Romans 3:10-20; 5:12: John 1:13; 6:65). Let us then ask two questions:

1. Who are to be comforted?

If all men are born in sins and cannot come to Christ, who then is to receive comfort? These are the elect of God. Those that were chosen before the foundation of the World according to God’s Sovereign Free Grace. These are the ones God calls “My People”, which were chosen of Him, not on their merit but only by grace. Who are the elect? If only the elect are comforted then who are they? They are the ones in need of comfort. They are the ones that see their need of mercy and forgiveness of sins. They are given to see their condition as “heavy laden” with sin and their need of rest. And they all will come to Christ Jesus alone for their salvation. All the elect of God shall come to Jesus Christ, and all that come to Him, He will not cast out but give Comfort to their souls.

What is the source of this comfort?

Our “warfare is accomplished...” That is to say that God in Christ has given us the victory. We are at war with this world who hates our gospel and our God, but let us be comforted in the fact that we who are “in Christ are more than conquers” over all our foes.

Take comfort in that “all (our) sins are pardoned.” God has exacted at the hand of Christ all payment for our sins. It is only in the offering of Jesus Christ that “God can be both just and justify the ungodly.” Take great comfort in that by the blood of Jesus, God can justly pardon us who have sinned against Him; for God has “received double of the Lord’s hand for all (our) sins.”
