Isaiah 40:3

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Isaiah 40:3. The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.

You know this was John the Baptist coming to proclaim the Saviour. That was the best comfort God’s people could have - the coming of the Lord. So it is now. The joy of the Church is the coming of the Lord, and to each one of us the greatest source of joy is the drawing near to us of our Lord. If he appears to us, our winter is over, our summer’s sun has come. If Christ be with us, the time of the singing of birds has come, and our heart is glad.
