"Knowing That The Lord Is Just" Pastor Donald Conner Jr., Lexington, VA.

Isaiah 61:1-9

1 THE* spirit of the LORD is upon me, because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek, he hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound. 2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all that mourn. 3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness, that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.
4 And they shall† build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations. 5 And strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and the sons of the alien shall be your plow-men, and your vine-dressers. 6 But ye shall be named the priests‡ of the LORD: men shall call you the ministers of our God:§ ye shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory shall ye boast yourselves. 7 For your shame ye shall have double; and for confusion they shall rejoice in their portion: because in their land they shall possess the double; everlasting joy shall be unto them. 8 For I the LORD love judgment,║ I hate robbery for burnt-offerings, and I will direct their work in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them. 9 And their seed shall be among the Gentiles, and their offspring among the people: all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which the LORD hath blessed
