Sermon Summary: This Advent sermon explores the prophetic message of Isaiah 11, emphasizing that hope has a name—Jesus Christ. The pastor addresses how Israel waited over 600 years for the promised Messiah while their nation appeared as a dead stump, yet God remained faithful to His promise. The message challenges believers to maintain faith during seemingly impossible circumstances, recognizing that God's timeline differs from human expectations. The sermon connects Old Testament prophecy to both Christ's first coming and His second return, urging the congregation to prepare their hearts through worship, submission, and faith. Central to the message is the understanding that true peace and hope come only through Jesus Christ, who brings supernatural restoration to broken lives and situations that appear beyond repair.
