“A Name Like No Other”
Saturday, September 21, 2024
Key Verse
“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, Counselor, 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…” (Isaiah 9:6,7).TEXT — Isaiah 9:1-7
Message
Names have special meanings, and sometimes they reveal the circumstances or situation in which a child was born. Names also convey the virtues parents wish a child to possess or the purpose they want him or her to accomplish in life.
The profundity of Prophet Isaiah’s declarations in our text today is found not just in the birth of Christ, His attributes, royalty and future reign, but in His name. He shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, the everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace. Christ’s names point to a future era that transcends the present age, and situates the infinity of His righteous reign with judgment and justice. This will commence at the onset of the millennial rule, when Jesus will return to establish a government of righteousness on earth.
Christ Jesus came from heaven to make the sons of men the sons of God; to enlist citizens of the earth as citizens of heaven. He came the first time to redeem the human race. Before His second coming, He will first come at the rapture to take away His holy and prepared bride, the Church, to heaven before the great tribulation. Only sinners, backsliders and careless believers will partake of the great tribulation.
The journey of life is strewn with danger and hazards that usually leads to sin and eternal separation from God. It is for this reason that God gave Him a name above every other name, at the mention of which every knee must bow, and every tongue must declare His lordship. Jesus came to save man from the agony of eternal death. He invites you today, to come to Jesus and find rest for your soul, receive assurance of a peaceful eternity with Almighty God and be part of the unique government He will enthrone on earth, at the end of time.
Thought for the day
Faith in the name of Jesus is the key that unlocks all doors.
