Isaiah 9:6
6 For 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, [a] Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
There is some much stuff in here about who God is and how he operates in his kingdom
so iam gonna share a few thoughts
The First name is "Wonderful Counselor"
The Hebrew words here are Pele and Yaats
Pele: Beyond Understanding, Too Wonderful for Words
Yaats: To advise to consult, To Guide
The Word for Wonderful here is pele which to me describes his holiness and his glory
When we tell Yeshuah (Jesus) that he is our wonderful counselor we are also telling him that he is glorious us and worthy and holy
The word for Counselor here is Yaat's this word means to consult advise and Guide
I don't know about you but I like having someone to guide me in life that is too wonderful for words
Saying that Yeshuah is our wonderful counselor is saying that your the person that I can go to
you are my guide, your my consultant on everything
Is he really your guide, consultant, adviser?
The Second name of Yeshuah (Jesus) is Mighty God
to me the name mighty god doesn't need hebrew for a good explanation so i wont bore u with the theology
Basically Yeshuah being our mighty god is basically saying no matter what i come up against ur bigger and better
I can never loose a battle if your fighting for me
I think that the reason that most people have problems in their lives is becasue they have a misconseption on how big and "Mighty" there God truely is
The Third Name is Everlasting Father
I find it very interesting that the word Father is used here
The Job of a father is to raise up sons and daughter to continue the family lineage
often time I think we relegate things to god by saying that's ur job not mine
Do you resembly your Everlasting Father?
Do you talk like he did?
did you love like he did?
Did you Live like he did?
Did you Listen like he did?
The Final name that is given to Christ is "Prince of Peace"
This name shows me a simple yet very profound truth
That wherever you are you can have peace
The Hebrew here means "The one in charge who contains everything"
Everything you need you can find right here in my presence
No matter where you are at in your life you can be whole through his presence
I encourage you this christmas to Look listen love and talke like HE did
Learning To LOVE
Living under HIS Waterfalls
Ben,
