The Isaiah 43 Podcast
The Isaiah 43 Podcast invites you to behold the God who says, “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are Mine” (Isa. 43:1). Each week, we walk slowly through the Scriptures, combining careful exegesis with the rich truths of Reformed theology. These reflections on the Holy Scriptures aim to ground your faith, comfort your heart, and lift your eyes to Christ—our great Redeemer, Shepherd, and Friend. Whether you come weary, searching, or eager to grow, you’ll find a steady place to rest in the promises of God.

Nothing is out of control. Not then. Not now.
In this episode of The Isaiah 43 Podcast, we finish John chapter 11 by slowing down over verses we’re often tempted to rush past. As Jesus withdraws before the Passover, John reveals something profound: Christ is not avoiding the cross—He is moving toward it on the Father’s perfect timetable.
While pilgrims purify themselves for the feast, the true Lamb of God is already on His way to Jerusalem.
Religious leaders believe they are in control, yet they unknowingly serve God’s redemptive plan.
In these final verses, we see divine sovereignty, human responsibility, and gospel irony collide.
This week we will read the following Scripture:
- John 11:54-57
- Numbers 9:9-13
