TEXT: Isaiah 9:6
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.
MESSAGE:
The first name given to Him here, is wonderful. Wonderful is combination is two words: Wonder and Full.
Wonderful means full of wonders. Everything about God is wonderful.
All of His works is wonderful. Psalms 107:8.
His testimonies are wonderful. Psalms 119:129.
==> Your own testimony will be wonderful
His knowledge is wonderful. Psalms 139:6
His counsel is wonderful Isaiah 28:29.
You can never find a greater or better adviser like the Almighty God.
SEVEN THINGS ABOUT HIM THAT IS WONDERFUL.
1. WONDERS OF HIS SIZE: There is only one ways to describe His size. e.g
How long are His leg wonderful – Isaiah 66:1,
His hands? Wonderful – Deuteronomy 33:27
How big is He together – 2 Chronicles 16:18
The size of His nose -Exodus 15:8
The size of His ears -His ears are so large, He can hear the prayers of everybody at the same time.
He is very big, my God is very big. But do you know that the greatest wonder is that He can make Himself small enough to dwell in you, as big as He is but He does not loose His greatness at the same time. 1 John 4:4.
What does that mean? One good news is that He is bigger than corona virus.
’’I’m assuring somebody today that it doesn’t matter the forces gathering around you, Greater is He that in you than He that is in the world”. And that should give you Joy.

2. WONDERS OF HIS LOVE: In 1 John 4:8, the bible calls Him love, the love that is willing to give His all.
John 3:16. The Almighty God is an all giving God. Romans 8:32, we see how great this love is according to Romans 5:7-8, John 15:13, John 13:1.
If you are one of the people that He loves, and I believe so, He will set you up for major and uncommon breakthrough. 2 Chronicles 1:6-15, 2 Samuel 12:24-25.
The bible said when Solomon was born, God loved him. If He loves you, He sets up for major and uncommon miracles and He does it in such a way that nobody can complain.
==> I pray for someone tonight, may the Almighty God set you up for major breakthrough.
It is written in Romans 8:37 that because of His love, we are more than conqueror. You can go to war and win if God is with you.
To be more than a conqueror means God will fight for you, winning battles while sitting down and doing nothing.
==> I pray for everyone listening to me tonight, in the mighty name of Jesus you will be more than conqueror
3 WONDERS OF HIS MERCY: If God wants to boast, He boast of His wealth, He also boast of His mercy. Ephesians 2:4-6.
God is rich in mercy. Lamentation 3:22-23, it is because of the mercy God we are not consumed, it is because of the mercy of the Almighty God we are still alive today.
I pray for someone here tonight, you will enjoy the mercy of the Almighty God in the mighty name of Jesus.
This mercy of the Almighty God is specific in its operation. Genesis 19:15-16, Mark 10:46-52, Mark 1:40-45, Matthew 15:21-28, Acts 11:2-18, James 2:13. If you want to really really cry to God, don’t begin to tell Him how good you are or what you have done, just ask for mercy.
==>May I hear somebody cry to God and say God have mercy on me
4. WONDERS OF HIS GLORY: 1 Timothy 6:16, Acts 22:6, Isaiah 6:1-3. Even Angels stand thousands of kilometres away from God because of the wonders of His Glory. 1 Kings 8:10-11, 1 Samuel 5:2-5, 1 Corinthians 15:41.
As glorious as stars are, you can only see them at night, but describing Jesus as bright and morning star in Rev. 22:6, explains how intense the glory is so much that it shines during the day.
You will say how does this apply to me, Glory is the opposite of shame. Proverbs 3:35, Colossians 1:27- Glory is in you, meaning anything that can cause shame, by the Glory of God, they will be kept far away from you.
God is here tonight and He is going to get rid of anything causing shame tonight.
5. WONDERS OF HIS NAME: One of the wonders of His name is that His names are many. Isaiah 9:6, Revelations 1:8.
Everyone of His names are meaningful
i. He is the Way: John 14:6., 8:32 & 36 – I am the way out of trouble, lock down, barrenness, failure, defeat. Not only is Jesus is the way out of problems, He is also the way to miracles, breakthrough, peace, success, promotion and everything beautiful even to heaven. He is the way out of no way.
ii. He is also the Truth: 2 Corinthians 13:8, you can’t do anything against the truth. The fact that He is the truth guarantees you freedom. John 8:32, 36. When the truth sets you free, you are free indeed.
John 1:14. No matter what you try, the truth we always remain the truth. Thank God, He saved us from our sin, anyone that is saved must remember that we are saved to be holy.
iii. He is the Life: John 11:25, He is the life, that’s why He can give Resurrection to your eyes, hand legs and womb because He is the resurrection and the life.
iv. His many names are powerful: Philippians 2:9-11, John 14:14.
If you are at crossroads and you are helpless, His Name is there for you to call upon.
Is there anybody listening to me today that needs a miracle, let me hear you call His name Jesus
6. WONDERS OF HIS BLOOD: Leviticus 17:11, That blood cleanses from sins – 1 John 1:7.
WONDERS OF THE BLOOD
i. It guarantees your security -Exodus 2:13
ii. It gives you access to Holy of Holies (The bedroom of Almighty God) Hebrews 10:19
iii. The blood guarantees your victory over Satan. Revelations 12:10-11.
==>May the blood of Jesus speak for you in Jesus’ name.
7. WONDERS OF HIS ANGER:
It doesn’t matter what anybody may tell you, my God is not a Father Christmas. He loves and His love is wonderful, but He chastises too. Hebrews 12:6. If He loves you, but be careful, don’t toy with Him. Revelations 3:19. Don’t mess with God. If God loves you, He won’t leave you on your own. He won’t watch you go astray – Proverbs. 29:15, Hebrews 12:29, Hebrews 10:31. Be careful, don’t joke with Him, don’t toy with sin, He is a holy God. When the angels are with Him, they cry Holy God. Proverbs 29:1.
When God decides to show His anger, He does it in a wonderful way.
God loves sinners. Ezekiel 33:11, but He can be angry with adamant sinners. Psalms 7:11, Acts 5:1-11.
One prayer I pray everyday is that God please don’t make me do what will make you get angry with me. The more He loves you, the more you need to be careful.
CONCLUSION:
God can be wonderfully angry, watch your steps. Those of you who have not surrendered your life to God, know that God is angry with the wicked every day, come and surrender your life to Him today.
ALTAR CALL
If you are yet to surrender your life to Him, Do so now because I don’t know when He will return. For those playing games, watch it.
If you are a backslider cry to Him and say Lord please restore me, I want to come into fellowship with you again.
