"For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government 
 shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful Counsellor,
 The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. 
 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the
 throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with
 judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD
 of hosts will perform this."                                                       (Isaiah 9:6-7)

                                            
     What a difference it makes in our lives that Jesus Christ came and died for our sins! Think about it! What differences has Jesus coming and dying made in your life??? Then take it a step further and think about what a difference it will make in this world when He comes to sit on David's throne and rule righteously! Hallelujah!

     Jesus is the difference between light and darkness, life and death (v. 2) He is also the difference between joy and sorrow, freedom and bondage (vs. 3-4). As we wait for His return we need to be sure the government of our lives is on His shoulders.  Let Him be to you ALL that His names proclaim, for every name that He bears is a blessing that He shares.

Isaiah 9:2-3 (NKJV) 
2  The people who walked in darkness Have seen a great light; Those who dwelt in the land of the shadow of death, Upon them a light has shined. 
3  You have multiplied the nation (listen up America) Hallelujah! And increased its joy; (listen up America! Hallelujah! They rejoice before You according to the joy of harvest, As men rejoice when they divide the spoil. (Again, listen up America! Hallelujah!)
4  For You have broken the yoke of his burden And the staff of his shoulder, The rod of his oppressor, As in the day of Midian. 
5  For every warrior's sandal from the noisy battle, And garments rolled in blood, Will be used for burning and fuel of fire. 

     Now let's go back to Is. 9:6-7 and unpack this:

a)unto us – Israel; not to Judah only but to both the houses of Israel the Messiah came (v 6, 8:14)  was to come from Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (Ren. 12:1-3 17:19, 28:14) (Ps. 89:2-4; 35-37; Luke 3:23-38; Rom. 1:3) and from Israel as a nation (Rom. 9:4-13);
b) child – A coming child (Heb. yeled, something born; a lad, an offspring; boy; child; son; young one). The prophet saw in the darkness of Israel the boy being born to them (both houses, for the darkness of 8:21-9:6 was in Zebulun, Naphtali, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the nations, and Judah) and He would be a great light to the people (v. 2, 6-7; 11:1-2);
c)Born – quoted in Lk. 2:11, and is the fulfillment of 7:14; 11:1; Gen. 3:15;
d) Son is given – for man and not woman was given the responsibility of headship and source of the race, so it took a man to fulfill the responsibility of the redemption of the race – a man born of a woman and called the Seed of the woman (Gen. 3:14). Thus both man and woman played a part in redemption, but the Redeemer Himself had to be a man born of a woman to fulfill prophecy and meet God's demands (v. 6; 7:14; Gen. 3:15; Gal. 4:4);
e) There is an unmentioned period between this word given and the next prediction – the whole period of grace not seen in particular by the prophets in name, but required to fulfill many of their prophecies;
f) Government shall be - Heb. misrah, empire; government. Found only here (vs. 6-7). It means the authority to rule; the right to be the Sovereign of all the earth.

Isaiah 9:7 (KJV) 
6  For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. 
7  Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this;
g) Upon His shoulder – Upon His shoulder simply means that the responsibility of rule and judgment and justice is upon Him (v. 6:11:1-5; Daniel 7:13-14; Luke 1:32-33; 1 Cor. 15:24-28; Rev. 11:15; 20:4-10).

Revelation 11:15 (KJV) 
15  And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.

h) His name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace.

Isaiah 9:6-7 (KJV) 
6  For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. 
7  Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.
5 Names of the Messiah (9:6)
Prophecy Of Immanuel As The Great Lord (Is. 9:6,7)
His humanity ("a child born") and His deity ("a son given") are foretold. His government is described as prosperous, peaceful, Davidic, righteous, eternal and sure (vs. 6-7). Here in these scriptures His messianic titles are given: Picture yourself in these names . . . 

        Let Him be to you ALL that His names proclaim, for every name that He bears is  blessing that He shares.

1) Wonderful. Heb. pele, a miracle, a marvelous thing; wonderful. Trans. wonders (Ex. 15:22; Ps. 88:10-13; 89-5,6; Dan. 12:6); wonder (29:14); wonderful (v. 6; 25:``; Ps. 119:129); wonderfully (Lam. 1:9; and marvelous things (Ps. 78:12). Wonder of a Counselor, giving counsel which alone can save man from sin, the grips of the enemy and from ourselves, (our flesh).
Counsellor. Heb. ya'ats' advise; consult' to deliberate; guide.  Counselor used 24 times. This name expresses the idea that He is the Supreme Counsellor – the one who is qualified to give counsel and advice to all created beings.

     Do you need the Wonderful Counselor to counsel you and speak to your heart intimately today?

John 16:13 (NASB77) 
13  "But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth; for He will not speak on His own initiative, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will disclose to you what is to come.
John 14:26 (KJV) 
26  But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
Matthew 11:28-30 (NASB77) 
28  " Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. 
29  "Take My yoke upon you, and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you shall find rest for your souls. 
30  "For My yoke is easy, and My load is light."

     Kingdom Family, exchange your yoke for His yoke. His yoke is easy and His load is light.

2) The Mighty God. Heb. Gibbor, powerful, mighty; strong; champion; chief, and El, Almighty; the Strong One. It literally means the Mighty Almighty, or the conquering God. One of many places where the Messiah is called God (v 6; Jn.1:1; 20:28; Rom. 9:5; 1 Tim. 3:16; Heb. 1:8; 1 John 5:20). El-gibbor – Powerful God, God-Champion, Deity in the special character of a champion in battle; What battles in your life do you need for your Mighty God, El-gibbor to divine intervene in, show up and show out and triumph over the enemies of your life.

2 Corinthians 2:14 (NASB77) 
14   But thanks be to God, who always leads us in His triumph in Christ, and manifests through us the sweet aroma of the knowledge of Him in every place.
Romans 16:20 (NKJV) 
20  And the God of peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen. 
Revelation 12:11 (NASB77) 
11  "And they overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony, and they did not love their life even to death.

3) The Everlasting Father – the Father of eternity; the Planner of the ages; and Father of all time (Heb. 1:2). The Eternal One, The Everlasting Father.  The symbolic use of the Hebrew word "father" was an expression for "possessor of", meaning that He became a child in time (through His birth), but He is the Father (and possessor) of eternity – the Eternal One.

Isaiah 57:15 (GW) 
15  The High and Lofty One lives forever, and his name is "HOLY". This is what He says: I live in a high and holy place. But I am with those who are crushed and humble. I will renew the spirit of those who are humble and the courage of those who are crushed. Hallelujah!

     Are you in need of encouragement today? Is your heart hurting and crushed today? Jesus is the answer!

Psalm 72:17-19 (KJV) 
17  His name shall endure for ever: his name shall be continued as long as the sun: and men shall be blessed in him: all nations shall call him blessed. 
18  Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous things. 
19  And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled with his glory; Amen, and Amen. 
Revelation 21:6-7 (NKJV) 
6  And He said to me, "It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts. 
7  He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son.
Revelation 21:6-7 (GW) 
6  He said to me, "It has happened! I am the A and the Z, the beginning and the end. I will give a drink from the fountain filled with the water of life to anyone who is thirsty. It won't cost anything. 
7  Everyone who wins the victory will inherit these things. I will be their God, and they will be my children.

4) The Prince Of Peace – the Peaceful Prince. He shall promote and increase His government and peace without wars (v. 6; 2:2-4). The Prince of Peace, the ruler who will bring about a warless world in the coming kingdom. The Davidic covenant (2 Samuel 7:8-17) will be executed in the Kingdom age, which in turmoil merge into the eternal state by authority of the Lord's zeal; for He will perform these wondrous promises of ultimate blessing for Israel and the world.

John 14:27 (KJV) 
27  Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. 
Isaiah 26:3 (NKJV) 
3  You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You. 
Philippians 4:6-7 (GW) 
6  Never worry about anything. But in every situation let God know what you need in prayers and requests while giving thanks. 
7  Then God's peace, which goes beyond anything we can imagine, will guard your thoughts and emotions through Christ Jesus.
Colossians 3:15 (KJV) 
15  And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.

     It is faith in God, not faith in man's treaties, that brings the victory. We the just shall live by faith..

Romans 1:17
"For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, "the just shall live by faith".

He Shall Be Immanuel
Isaiah 7:14 (KJV)
Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.

     What do you need for Immanuel to do for you today? He is a "miracle worker" I can assure you!

GOD IS WITH US! 
Happy Birthday Jesus!
