Description

Key Truth:
Isaiah’s prophecy paints a majestic picture of the coming Savior. In a time of rebellion and uncertainty, God promised a child—a son—who would carry the weight of government and reign forever. His names reveal His divine character: Wonderful Counselor for wisdom, Mighty God for power, Everlasting Father for care, and Prince of Peace for reconciliation. His will be vast, prosperous, and eternal, established with justice and righteousness. This promise reminds us that salvation is God’s work, accomplished by His zeal, not human effort. Christmas is the fulfillment of this hope: Jesus Christ, the eternal King, came to bring peace and justice to the world.
