[2821.52 --> 2830.74] And then in verse 8 and maybe verse 9 there's an injection of God's voice. Right for I the Lord
[2830.74 --> 2836.50] in my faithfulness I will reward my people. I will make an everlasting covenant with them.
[2836.50 --> 2844.66] Right this is a stamp of approval a confirmation of promise. This is God saying what the servant has said is my word.
[2845.46 --> 2852.24] This is an underlining. It's a statement of promise and assurance that this indeed will be the case.
[2853.58 --> 2857.64] And so pull it all together. The servant Messiah's word is God's word.
[2857.64 --> 2866.62] He speaks as one with authority. He has the words of eternal life. The servant Messiah is the word of God.
[2868.28 --> 2869.78] And because of that
[2869.78 --> 2871.54] in verse 10
[2871.54 --> 2873.28] we hear a new voice.
[2873.78 --> 2878.80] I delight greatly in the Lord. My soul rejoices
[2878.80 --> 2881.22] in my God.
[2881.22 --> 2884.18] So three voices.
[2885.30 --> 2890.52] First the two voices of Isaiah coming together as one. The suffering servant and the Messiah King seen
[2890.52 --> 2894.50] as one man. And then the content of what he speaks and promises.
[2895.04 --> 2897.92] The effect of him making for himself a people.
[2898.48 --> 2902.78] Followed by the voice of God to confirm and ensure gospel truth.
[2902.78 --> 2904.54] And now a third voice.
[2904.92 --> 2906.74] Right? I delight. My soul.
[2906.92 --> 2909.30] Clothed me with garments of salvation.
[2909.50 --> 2911.38] Arrayed me in robes of righteousness.
[2911.80 --> 2913.26] And not just any righteousness. Right?
[2913.38 --> 2915.58] In the text it says his righteousness.
[2917.38 --> 2918.68] Right? Verse 10
[2918.68 --> 2920.92] is the fulfillment of verse 3.
[2921.88 --> 2922.96] It's the effect
[2922.96 --> 2924.42] of the message he proclaimed.
[2924.82 --> 2926.36] Right? Joy instead of mourning.
[2926.56 --> 2929.06] Praise instead of despair. Oaks of righteousness
[2929.06 --> 2930.66] displaying his splendor.
[2930.66 --> 2932.42] That is for his glory.
[2932.78 --> 2936.64] And so what is your proper response
[2936.64 --> 2938.24] to the servant Messiah
[2938.24 --> 2939.66] working in your life?
[2940.18 --> 2942.26] What is your new identity?
[2943.28 --> 2945.26] What is your response to the gospel
[2945.26 --> 2947.52] that he accomplishes and he proclaims?
[2948.22 --> 2949.54] It's rejoicing.
[2950.22 --> 2951.48] It's praising.
[2952.42 --> 2953.76] Right? Your response is
[2953.76 --> 2954.58] worship.
[2955.50 --> 2956.26] And
[2956.26 --> 2957.94] your response
[2957.94 --> 2960.08] is righteousness.
[2962.08 --> 2962.76] Righteousness.
[2962.78 --> 2965.92] You are clothed in his righteousness.
[2965.92 --> 2967.36] And you've heard me say this before.
[2967.82 --> 2969.76] Righteousness is an economic term
[2969.76 --> 2971.50] before it's a theological one.
[2972.68 --> 2974.28] And so this means a couple things for us.
[2975.02 --> 2976.68] Let's put some meat on these bones
[2976.68 --> 2977.86] of the word righteousness.
[2978.44 --> 2980.38] Clothed in righteousness means
[2980.38 --> 2982.42] that you don't have to worry
[2982.42 --> 2984.22] when yours falls short.
[2985.66 --> 2986.08] Right?
[2986.08 --> 2987.66] It means when the devil
[2987.66 --> 2989.10] or when social media
[2989.10 --> 2990.36] and maybe those two are the same
[2990.36 --> 2991.54] when the devil
[2991.54 --> 2992.36] or social media
[2992.36 --> 2993.62] whispers in your ear
[2993.62 --> 2994.82] you're not good enough
[2994.82 --> 2996.40] you can say
[2996.40 --> 2997.54] get behind me Satan
[2997.54 --> 2999.20] because what matters
[2999.20 --> 3000.78] is the righteousness of Christ
[3000.78 --> 3001.74] given to me.
[3002.74 --> 3003.72] It means that
[3003.72 --> 3005.00] even though there's nothing
[3005.00 --> 3005.74] you can do
[3005.74 --> 3007.10] to earn your salvation
[3007.10 --> 3008.54] he's done everything
[3008.54 --> 3010.26] and he gives it to you freely
[3010.26 --> 3011.28] by his grace.
[3011.28 --> 3011.88] Grace.
[3011.88 --> 3013.34] This clothing yourself
[3013.34 --> 3014.74] being clothed
[3014.74 --> 3015.70] in the righteousness
[3015.70 --> 3017.18] of the servant Messiah
[3017.18 --> 3018.80] means there is nothing
[3018.80 --> 3020.74] nothing that can separate you
[3020.74 --> 3021.72] from the love of God
[3021.72 --> 3022.42] that is available
[3022.42 --> 3024.10] in Christ Jesus our Lord.
[3024.26 --> 3025.38] It means that the love
[3025.38 --> 3027.00] that the Father has for the Son
[3027.00 --> 3028.24] is the same love
[3028.24 --> 3029.30] that he has for you.
[3030.10 --> 3031.12] You've probably heard that before.
[3032.14 --> 3033.72] Because when he looks at you
[3033.72 --> 3036.16] he sees Christ.
[3036.16 --> 3036.26] Christ.
[3039.20 --> 3040.38] And righteousness
[3040.38 --> 3042.30] is a term
[3042.30 --> 3044.26] is a reality with legs.
[3044.90 --> 3045.00] Right?
[3045.12 --> 3046.42] Righteousness walks.
[3047.18 --> 3049.34] Righteousness is an economic term
[3049.34 --> 3051.54] even as it's a theological term.
[3051.86 --> 3053.28] And so putting on Christ
