Isaiah acknowledged that the deliverer of God’s people would be known as Mighty God, whose reign would endure for all generations. In addition to being the Mighty God, Jesus is also the Light of the World in whom there is no darkness. For this reason, as we learn to accept him, we can possess hope and joy in the presence of an uncertain future.
Let us give thanks to Jesus, our Mighty God, whose light permanently brightens our way, enabling us to cope with a hurried, demanding, and stressful world. This is God’s wonderful gift to you as you celebrate Christmas. So Merry Christmas! May God bless you.
For unto us a child is
born, unto us a Son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder.
These will be his royal titles: … “The Mighty God,” …
~Isaiah 9:6 The Living
Bible
… Cheer up, don’t be
afraid. For the Lord your God has arrived to live among you. He is a mighty
Savior. He will give you victory. He will rejoice over you in great gladness;
he will love you and not accuse you.
~Zephaniah 3:16-17 The
Living Bible
May the God of hope fill
you with all joy and peace in your faith, that by the power of the Holy Spirit,
your whole life and outlook may be radiant with hope.
~Romans 15:13 Phillips
– New Testament in Modern English
