Isaiah 9:6 “…For to us a Child is born, to us a Son is given; and the government shall be upon His shoulder, and His name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father [of Eternity], Prince of Peace…”
As we are heading towards the holidays, let us focus on the reason for the season, which is Jesus. Jesus is our Wonderful Counsellor. He is our Mighty God—the Everlasting Father. He is the Prince of Peace. His coming was prophesied, long before He came. His names were given to Him long before His lowly birth. May we focus on and celebrate who Jesus is and all that His names represent.
His miraculous birth was the start of something that history will never repeat. Christ’s birth, His life, death and resurrection, and our relationship with Him because of this, is the reason we celebrate.
No one else can bear these names, for no one could ever be the same.
