"Wait… What? WHO is the 'ARM of the LORD'?” (Isaiah 52:13-53:3) - Daily Manna - 03/25/26

What if everything you expected about God’s power… was wrong?


Isaiah says the Arm of the LORD will be revealed—God Himself stepping in to save. But when He comes, He doesn’t look like a warrior, a king, or anything we would expect. Instead, He appears weak… rejected… even disfigured.


“Who has believed our report? And to whom has the Arm of ADONAI been revealed?” (Is. 53:1)


In this eye-opening teaching, we step into the tension of Isaiah 52–53 and wrestle with a shocking question:

What if God’s greatest display of power comes through suffering, not strength?


This message uncovers:

- Why the Servant is described with language reserved for God Himself

- How apparent “failure” is actually divine success

- Why both Israel and the nations struggle to recognize Him

- And what it reveals about our own expectations of God


Will we believe what God has revealed… even when it doesn’t look like what we expected?
