Description

The Love of Emmanuel | Isaiah 7:10-16

Series: Advent 2025

Pastor: Pastor Patrick Dailey

Sunday Morning

Date: 21st December 2025

Passage: Isaiah 7:10-16

-------------------

Welcome to Ontario Community Church's Sermon Podcast.

Pastor Patrick Dailey preaches on Isaiah 7:10-16, Psalm 80:1-7, 17-19, Romans 1:1-7, and Matthew 1:18-25 titled: The Love of Emmanuel.

What the passages reveal:

• Isaiah tells King Ahaz that a virgin will conceive and bear a son named Immanuel—God with us
• This is referenced in Matthew's Gospel as a fulfillment of prophecy when an angel appears to Joseph
• Jesus, the Word, becomes flesh and dwells among us
• The psalm cries out for God to restore His people and make His face shine upon them
• Paul describes the gospel of God's Son, descended from David, declared Son of God

We'll explore how this vision of God's love coming near shapes our understanding of what true love is. In Advent, love is not just a feeling we get at Christmas time; it's recognizing our God drawing near to us with His presence. God came into our dark and broken world to show us a better way. He loves us, dwells with us, and gives us the opportunity to respond.
