The Mighty God

As we continue to look at the names of Jesus Christ in (Isa. 9:6), we see that Jesus is not just called Wonderful, but also, "Counselor & The Mighty God." 1) Counselor. It's amazing that in the day in which we live, people will spend great amounts of money on the advice and opinions of educated men, but then reject the free counsel of God. (1 Jn 5: 9) says, "If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater." God in his infinite wisdom has freely given to us, "all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him…" (2 Peter 1:3). Why then is there so much confusion and arguing over things that are specifically stated and commanded by God? Why, simply because we have not fully surrendered to the final authority & council of God's Word. God's Word is not just a book of inspired suggestions, but rather the complete and final say of God. 2) The Mighty God. The world in all its foolishness loves the babe at Christmas but denies the power of the God man Jesus Christ. Why, because a babe is non-threatening, and weak, and easy to be overcome, but a Mighty God is someone they cannot push around. One day he will be seen as he truly is today, The Mighty God, The King of Kings and The Lord of Lord's. Amen!
