Many times the people of Israel disobeyed God, forgetting His laws and His commandments, going behind other “gods” and forgetting all the great things that God had done for His people, but God never forgot them, He was always behind them so that they would repent of their evil, and in the same way it happens with us, God is always looking for a way to introduce us to the path, since He does not want anyone to be lost but to proceed to repentance that is in Christ Jesus our beloved Sir.
The Bible tells us:
7 How beautiful on the mountains
are the feet of those who bring good news,
who proclaim peace,
who bring good tidings,
who proclaim salvation,
who say to Zion,
“Your God reigns!”8 Listen! Your watchmen lift up their voices;
together they shout for joy.
When the Lord returns to Zion,
they will see
The words of the prophet Isaiah were not always hard for the people of Israel, but God also gave them words of encouragement and motivation to understand the wonderful plans of God. The Lord also corrects us as a father corrects his children so that they stay on the right path.
Without a doubt, these were good news for the people of Israel, knowing that one day they would return from captivity, and that God would gather them even from the ends of the earth to be a people again. What better time than this to hear these words? We ourselves often go through a spiritual captivity, through a desert, and we fail to understand God’s plans, and that is precisely why we must shelter in His promises, those promises that God has given us through His Word.
May God help us to always sing joyfully before Him and to give Him glory in any situation of our lives. The saint of Israel is with us!
In the same way that Israel experienced moments of exile, silence, and apparent abandonment, we also encounter seasons in which we feel distant from the presence of God. However, just as the Lord raised prophets to remind His people of His covenant, He continues to speak to our hearts today through His Word and through the work of the Holy Spirit. These divine reminders strengthen our hope and guide us back to the firm paths of faith.
Isaiah’s message shows us a God who not only corrects but also restores, a God who disciplines but simultaneously embraces. He reminds His people that redemption, comfort, and salvation are always within reach for those who turn their eyes toward Him. This same truth applies to us: no matter how far we think we have gone, God remains willing to redeem us and lift us from any emotional or spiritual ruin.
It is beautiful to understand that the good news Isaiah describes does not come from human effort but from divine intervention. The image of the watchmen shouting for joy reflects the expectation and excitement of those who recognize God’s work even before it fully manifests. Today, we are also called to be watchmen —people who announce hope, who proclaim peace, who remind others that God still reigns and that His power continues to transform lives.
Sometimes we fail to appreciate how valuable the message of salvation is. The good news that Isaiah prophesied pointed toward the great redemption through Christ, the One who came to announce freedom to the captives and to open the eyes of the blind. This glorious mission continues to impact humanity, offering forgiveness, restoration, and eternal life to all who embrace Him.
Just as God promised Israel that He would gather them again, He also gathers us from our scattered thoughts, from our fears, from our anxieties, and from those valleys where we feel spiritually worn down. His love becomes the mountain from which the good news descends, giving us new strength and igniting in us a renewed desire to seek His presence each day.
For that reason, we must live with hearts ready to rejoice, even in adversity. Joy is not only a feeling; it is an act of faith. We sing, we praise, and we celebrate because we know that the Lord reigns, that He has comforted His people, and that His promises never fail. May these truths lead us to trust Him more deeply and to walk faithfully until the day we see His glory with our own eyes.

======================
“Burst into songs of joy together, You ruins of Jerusalem, for the Lord has comforted his people, he has redeemed Jerusalem.” Isaiah 52:9
Rejoice, burst in songs of praise, you are my people those that have been left as a reminder after Assyria deportation, be quiet, I will be your refuge, I have redeemed to you. You are mine, by Fathers’s promises, I love you, that are staying in Jerusalem, says the Lord God almighty.
We children of God by the Faith in Abraham’s seed, our Lord Jesus Christ, we have been redeemed for life by His death on the Cross.
Our Lord Jesus loves us protect us against our enemies and says to us, also:
“Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom. “ Luke 12:32
