SALVATION Isaiah 49:8-9a Part 1 of 3

This is what the LORD says: "In the time of my favor I will answer you, and in the day of salvation I will help you; I will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people, to restore the land and to reassign its desolate inheritances, to say to the captives, 'Come out,' and to those in darkness, 'Be free!' " 

In the time of my favor I will answer you 
Psalm 69:13  But I pray to you, LORD, in the time of your favor; in your great love, O God, answer me with your sure salvation.
Isaiah 60:10  "Foreigners will build your walls, and their kings will serve you. Though in anger I struck you, in favor I will show you compassion."
Isaiah 61:2  ... to proclaim the year of the LORD's favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, ...

and in the day of salvation I will help you 
Isaiah 41:10  "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."
2 Corinthians 6:2  For he says, "In the time of my favor I heard you, and in the day of salvation I helped you." I tell you, now is the time of God's favor, now is the day of salvation.

I will keep you 
Isaiah 5:2  He dug it up and cleared it of stones and planted it with the choicest vines. He built a watchtower in it and cut out a winepress as well. Then he looked for a crop of good grapes, but it yielded only bad fruit.
Isaiah 26:3  You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.

and will make you to be a covenant for the people
