“For to us a Child shall be born, to us a Son shall be given; And the government shall be upon His shoulder, And His name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” (ISAIAH 9:6 AMP)
- In the book of Isaiah, Isaiah the prophet gave a prophecy of the Messiah to come, over 700 years before He was born.
- The first description of the Messiah is Wonderful Counselor!
- The word “Wonderful”, does not describe the type of counsel that he would give, but it describes the type of person He would be.
- Wonderful describes something that was too wonderful for words.
- This means that the Messiah would be beyond our ability to describe him.
- This is Jesus!
- He is wonderful, glorious, magnificent, and awesome!
- He is also, “Immanuel”, which means “God with us”
- So this awesome, wonderful, one came to this earth for you!
- To be with you!
- To place His Spirit in you!
- To rescue you from your sin!
- When you come to know Jesus...really know Him, it should fill you with Wonder and awe!
- He is all that and more!
- Don’t just go through this Christmas season, singing the songs and opening the presents without encountering the Best gift ever given!
- The awesome, powerful, amazing, wonderful Jesus.
- He came to you and for you!
- Take time today to get alone with Him.
- Dwell in His presence.
- Fill yourself with His Word.
- Capture the Wonder!
- And the most important thing is to never lose the Wonder!
- Have a great weekend!
