The joy of salvation does not rise from circumstances but from the steady mercy of God through Jesus Christ. This daily Christian devotional and prayer reflects on Isaiah’s song of praise and invites weary hearts to draw lasting joy from the wells of God’s salvation.
Today we continue our Waiting for Christ Advent series by turning to Isaiah 12. These words are not spoken from uncertainty, but from redemption remembered. God’s anger has turned away, comfort has taken its place, and salvation has become the song of His people. Isaiah reminds us that salvation is not merely something God gives—it is who God is.
This devotional explores why joy grows when grace is remembered, how confidence replaces fear when we rest in Christ’s finished work, and why believers return again and again to the wells of God’s mercy. If your joy has felt thin or your strength worn down, this message will help steady your heart with the assurance that God’s saving work is secure and His mercy will never be withdrawn.
