God's Not Done Yet | Isaiah 61

Main message: The sermon emphasizes that God is not finished with broken, hopeless situations; through Jesus, he brings “beauty from ashes” and can redeem what seems irreparable. It calls listeners to regain faith and pray again for areas they’ve written off as done.

Key points:

• Isaiah 61 is presented as a picture of revival: good news for the poor, healing for the brokenhearted, liberty for captives, and freedom for the bound.
• Jesus’ first sermon in the New Testament fulfills Isaiah 61, showing that restoration is central to his mission.
• Personal stories of addiction, miscarriage, family conflict, and restoration illustrate God’s ability to redeem real pain.
• The speakers long for God’s shalom to reach families, communities, cities, and nations, not just private spiritual experiences.
• One speaker testifies to reconciliation with a sister after thinking the relationship was over.
• The challenge is to stop saying “never” or “always” over broken situations and trust that God is still working.

Scriptures mentioned: Isaiah 61, Psalm 144
