Isaiah 12:1-2

We need to rest in our salvation to renew our strength. We need to change our perspective and look at life in its’ entirety as the means that God gave us to show our love for Him and the salvation that He provided in Christ Jesus by helping others and sharing the truth of the Gospel. In His peace, mercy, love and in good works we praise Him,  and what we do for the least of his creation we do for Him.

The anger of God had caused the people to be dispersed among the nations; His grace would lead to their regathering. Israel’s covenant-keeping God—and not the nations—brings salvation. My strength and song may be rephrased as “my strong song” or “my song of strength”.

Isaiah 12:1-2

“O Lord, I will praise You; 

Though You were angry with me, 

Your anger is turned away, and You comfort me. 

² Behold, God is my salvation, 

I will trust and not be afraid; 

‘For Yah, the Lord, is my strength and song; 

He also has become my salvation.’ ”
