Isaiah 61:10 I will greatly rejoice in the Lord, My soul shall be joyful in my God; For He has clothed me with the garments of salvation, He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, As a bridegroom decks himself with ornaments, And as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
The prophet’s words here are a foretelling of the salvation to come for the church. The words ‘spoken’ here being from the church and not from himself.
We do now rejoice we have a Saviour in Christ our Lord. We can be joyful for all He has done for us already.
Our Salvation is not by what we have done but because of what Christ has put on us through His mercy.
