The Prince of Peace Is Coming
To us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. - Isaiah 9:6
From the time that God promised a deliverer would come a hope began to grow in the heart of God’s people. Bit by bit and piece by piece God was revealing the anointed one who would come to bring redemption to Israel and to all of mankind.
Isaiah gives us many pictures of the one who was to come. In chapter seven He speaks of a virgin who would bear a son called Immanuel, God with us. In chapter 53 he spoke of the suffering Christ whose sacrifice would bring healing, salvation and deliverance to all who would believe.
In this verse Isaiah gives a more full revelation of who this blessed one would be than anywhere else. Isaiah declares him to be a Wonderful Counselor; one who’s wisdom and care bring comfort to the troubled. Isaiah calls him the Mighty God; indeed, he is the very God of the universe made flesh. He then calls him the Everlasting Father; one who will never forsake his sons. And finally, the Prince of Peace; those who know him know peace.
About 700 years before Christ was born Isaiah was telling us that Christ would be all that we would need: Our God, our counselor, our Father, our Peace. He is all that… and more. Hallelujah!
Prayer: Lord, thank you for coming to earth as a child to become Mighty God to us. Thank you for the peace that is in your name. In Jesus name, amen.

Affirmation: Because of God’s grace Jesus has become my Wonderful Counselor, my Mighty God, my Everlasting Father and my Prince of Peace.
Reflection: Take some time to reflect on all that Jesus is to those who believe and to what he means to you personally. Then share that with someone today.
