Isaiah 12 reads, '1 In that day you will sing, I will praise you, O Lord! You were angry with me, but not any more. Now you comfort me. 2 See, God has come to save me. I will trust in him and not be afraid. The Lord God is my strength and my song, he has given me victory. 3 With joy you will drink deeply from the fountain of salvation! 4 In that wonderful day you will sing, thank the Lord! Praise his name! Tell the nations what he has done. Let them know how mighty he is. ... 5 Sing to the Lord, for he has done wonderful things. Make known his praise around the world. 6 Let all the people of Jerusalem shout his praise with joy! For great is the Holy One of Israel who lives among you. I hope you get the meaning of this. These verses said to the people of Israel that their God is coming to save them. And that he is the God of their salvation. Then they say that "with joy they will drink deeply from the fountain of salvation. ' Then they say that this great God of salvation will live among them. This prophecy was fulfilled when God as Jesus was born as THE SON OF DAVID in Bethlehem that Christmas morning. No wonder the angels sang. "Glory to God in the highest heaven, and peace on earth to all whom God favors. " God as Christ was born. Now all who believe in him can rest in peace! May God bless you!
Ray...I believe the words "in that day mean" is a period of time which in this instance is talking about the last days. Joel 2:31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.
The Most High's name is YAH and his son's name is Yahoshua. The research is available for anyone who wants to find out for themselves, also the letter "J" is less than 500 years old.
This is how it is seen in the King James Bible, but the name "JEHOVAH" seen here is an English translation of Yehowah, the vocalization of (YHWH) Which is a Latinization of the Hebrew Tetragrammaton: יהוה (The proper name of God in written form) The name seen here should be spelled: Yehowah and pronounced: Ya - Ha � Vay.
I think that it should be something done about his name being taken out HIS book. Like put it back so that more people will know who he is, the creator of all things, without him having given us his son, we wouldn't be here!
to jane , jehovah witness do not believe Jesus is God ! they say He is " a " god ! ( very cult like ) do not be deceived by them and their doctrine please !!!
Hey Don, Let me give you this .. And Everyone else who thinks Jehovah should be used .
Isaiah 12:2 Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation.
3 Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation.
In a Hebrew Synagogue, it had written in big letters, "Behold, God is my Yeshuah." Look that word up. Now look at these Scriptures again when translated to english.

Read Jesus in place of salvation.
Isaiah12:2 Behold, God is my *Jesus*; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my Jesus.
3 Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of Jesus.
Matthew 1:21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.
Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
vs 1 ........."Thou Comfortest Me" Never were there truer words. when no one else can comfort my soul, the Lord does. Even if I have sinned against Him, and He is wrath against my sin, He still loves me the sinner. How truly amazing. And once He has chastised me for that sin, He doesn't turn me away, but rather comforts me. Just like a parent does to their child, chastised for the wrong doing, but comforted for the hurt. I love you Lord, thank you for being me Saviour, as wretched as I am. Praise be to Our Wonderful Saviour.
I would like to comment on verse 5 Sing unto the Lord for he hath done great things... Also the use of his Holy name LORD JEHOVAH giving us reason to keep singing his praise in this chapter.
I wish to comment on verse 2 of this chapter. "Behold God is my salvation" He removes deprivation, depravity, and He delivers. God outlined a plan for man to be reconciled to himself by manifesting himself in the flesh. John 1:1,14 Before this virgin birth of Christ, we were without any means of reaching God or being reconciled. We were destitute on a spiritual island called self. He saw our condition and reached for us. Romans5:6-8 Sin had deprived us of any contact or fellowship with God. He removed the deprivation and replaced it with an invitation. John 3:16; Romans 5:1; Romans 10:13
Having our deprivation removed, the writer goes to the next step in the life of the believer. "I will trust and not be afraid:"For the Lord Jehovah is my strength and my song;" Depravity must be delt with on a daily basis until it fades to nothing. When we are saved, we are no longer deprived,but we need to get rid of anything that does not reflect Christ in our lives.Depraity must decrease and Christ must increase to the point that we are governed by the spirit and not by the flesh. There are trials that will come to beset us,but we can get through them and glorify God. I Corinthians 10:13Hebrews 12:1, IJohn5:5 We know that we can relax and trust in the God of our salvation because it is His strength that saves us and sanctifies us. We are more than conquerors thru Him . IJohn 5:4 Having strength supplied by the Lord Jehovah Himself in the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit, we have reason to sing praises to Him. David said, His praise shall continually be on my lips. Victory is a great reason for singing psalms,hymns, and spiritual songs. Ephesians 5:19,20 Lastly we have His deliverance."He also is become my salvation" At the end of this life there is a surety for us, that God will guide us home. Psalm 48:14 He does not abandon us when we die He stays with us all the way home. It is comforting to know that we are cared for from birth to death and beyond in the family of God. When we complete our earthly walk, we begin our heavenly walk. The writer lets us know that God removes deprivation and saves for whosoever will come to Him. He empowers us with the Holy Spirit to guide us thru this life, and He guides us in death. Removal of deprivation, rids us of depravity, shrouds us with deliverance. What great reasons to sing praise to the God of our salvation. Psalm 50:23
Isaiah 12:2 Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation.
3 Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation.
