Isaiah 9:6-7
For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given;
and the government shall be upon his shoulder,
and his name shall be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
7 Of the increase of his government and of peace
there will be no end,
on the throne of David and over his kingdom,
to establish it and to uphold it
with justice and with righteousness
from this time forth and forevermore.
The zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this.

Who would have thought to send the Savior of the world in the form of a baby? My mom was like most other moms telling us as children, “Don’t judge a book by its cover.” There is so much under the cover of this precious child. Though He was born into humble means He was anything but common. The entire sin of the world would rest on His shoulders. He was Wonderful Counselor understanding all of our needs and thoughts. He was Mighty God in human form. He was an Everlasting Father because through His death eternal life would be given to all who believe. He was the Prince of Peace because through His gift we were brought back in right relationship with God. The kingdom He would reign over was an eternal one no human eye has seen but is still very real. By whose power did He come? God’s power and His strength. His zeal was behind it all. Glory to God the Father. Praise and adoration to Jesus the Son because this Child born so a simple young girl might have been covered with human flesh but He was and is the perfect Son of God.
