As a Jewish kid growing up in New York, Michael Brown had no interest in spiritual things. His life revolved around being a drummer for a band, and he got mixed up with drugs. But then some friends invited him to church, where he found the love and prayers of the people to be irresistible. After a short spiritual struggle, Michael trusted Jesus as Savior.
This was a monumental change for a wayward Jewish teen. One day he told his dad he had heard about Old Testament texts describing Jesus. His dad, incredulous, asked, Where? When Michael opened his Bible, it fell to Isaiah 53. They read it, and Michael exclaimed, Thats Him! Thats Jesus!
Indeed, it is Jesus. Through the help of Christians and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, Brown (today a Bible scholar and an author) came to recognize the Messiah of Isaiah 53. He experienced the salvation that changes lives, forgives sin, and gives abundant life to all who trust the Man of sorrows (v.3). Jesus is the One who was wounded for our transgressions and who died for us on the cross (v.5).
The Bible reveals Jesus, who alone has the power to change lives.
Read: Isaiah 53:4-12

A companion unobtrusive
Plays that song that’s so elusive
And the magic music makes your morning mood
