The King may appear to come in weakness and seem inept to accomplish his end, but the Bible promises that no matter how weak it may look, King Jesus will have dominion over all the earth. In the same way, he who has little now will be given more at the end.

The word of God is always effective: it accomplishes what it intends. To the faithful, it reveals the kingdom of God. To the faithless, it further obscures the kingdom. Listen carefully to Pastor Tony as he helps illuminate what mysteries this parable holds for us today regarding the manner of the kingdom.
The Servant (Christ) was given as a covenant by our Creator God to offer restoration and forgiveness to a world estranged by sin. He offers freedom to those held captive by the world, the flesh, and the Devil. Because of our vital union with Christ, we now share in that same anointing. In light of this, let us sing a new song!
Jesus as the servant of God is described in Isaiah 42 as being upheld, and loved by the Father, and as having the Spirit poured out upon him to empower him for his work. Jesus was the better ensurer of victory than Moses, a more acceptable sacrifice than the types and shadows of the law, and equipped with the Spirit to proclaim God’s will. Thus equipped, the servant does actually accomplish all the Father gives him to do in patience and with gentleness.
