Titles


Notice that Jesus is described in Isaiah 9:6 with two word titles:

Wonderful Counselor - Isaiah 11:2 The Spirit of the LORD will rest on him— the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of might, the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the LORD
Mighty God - Isaiah 11:3-4 3 and he will delight in the fear of the LORD. He will not judge by what he sees with his eyes, or decide by what he hears with his ears; 4 but with righteousness he will judge the needy, with justice he will give decisions for the poor of the earth. He will strike the earth with the rod of his mouth; with the breath of his lips he will slay the wicked.
Everlasting Father - John 14:9-10   9 Jesus answered: “Don’t you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you I do not speak on my own authority. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work.
Prince of Peace - Luke 2:14Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”

At this time of year, let’s remember who to focus on – Jesus, and what to focus on - our relationship with Him.

Have a good Godly day.
