1“Here is my servant, whom I uphold,
my chosen one in whom I delight;
I will put my Spirit on him,
and he will bring justice to the nations.
2 He will not shout or cry out,
or raise his voice in the streets.
3 A bruised reed he will not break,
and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out.
In faithfulness he will bring forth justice;
4 he will not falter or be discouraged
till he establishes justice on earth.
In his teaching the islands will put their hope.”
5 This is what God the Lord says—
the Creator of the heavens, who stretches them out,
who spreads out the earth with all that springs from it,
who gives breath to its people,
and life to those who walk on it:
6 “I, the Lord, have called you in righteousness;
I will take hold of your hand.
I will keep you and will make you
to be a covenant for the people
and a light for the Gentiles,
7 to open eyes that are blind,
to free captives from prison
and to release from the dungeon those who sit in darkness.

Application
God promises servants who work on His behalf and have His spirit to give you new perspectives and freedom to all people.
As servants God promises to be with us, to use us to fulfill His promises for all people.
Prayer
Thanks to God for the servants He has provided and helped who have opened our eyes, brought freedom and helped us have new life with God.
That as a servant I ask God for forgiveness when i have doubted His ongoing help and support and His presence and have not relied on His Spirit
That I live a life of helping others see how good life with God is.
