In Isaiah 10:33-11:10, we find a picture of trees that were all chopped down. However, out of one stump a sprout would grow and eventually transform everything. This picture portrays the coming of Jesus and also what he can do in your life.
God delights to bring deliverance through unlikely people and in surprising ways.
In the letter to the church in Sardis in Revelation 3:1-6, Jesus had a surprise announcement for the church and promised a surprise visit...
God is free to define Israel, to show mercy or wrath, and to add to Israel from the nations.
