For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; And the government will rest on His shoulders; And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,  Eternal Father, Prince of Peace. — Isaiah 9:6 (NASB) Jesus is Wonderful Counselor. Before you text a friend, talk to Jesus and listen for His answer. Jesus is Mighty God. Nothing is impossible with God. (Luke 1:37) Jesus is our conquering King. He has gained the victory for us, Christ is Eternal Father. In John 10:30, Jesus said,  “I and the Father are one.” Our Lord and Savior is also the Prince of Peace, and He has given it to us. Call on His name today. “ Peace I leave with you; My [perfect] peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be afraid. [Let My perfect peace calm you in every circumstance and give you courage and strength for every challenge.] ” — John 14:27 (AMP)

For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; and the government will rest on His shoulders; and His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace. — Isaiah 9:6 (NASB) It doesn’t matter what you need, Jesus is the One you need to call. When you want someone to talk to, call on Jesus, the Wonderful Counselor. Before you phone a friend, talk to Him. He is your constant Companion and guide. When trouble strikes, He is our Mighty God. Jesus is bigger and greater than anything that stands before us. No matter what kind of relationship we have with our earthly parents, we can call on Jesus, the everlasting Father.

In Luke 7:20 (TPT) John’s disciples asked Jesus, “ Are you the coming Messiah we’ve been expecting, or are we to continue to look for someone else? ” Isaiah 9:6 (NASB) says: For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; and the government will rest on His shoulders; And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace . JESUS is the ONE. He is the way, the truth, and the life.  No need to look to any other. The Son of Man is enthroned in the place of honor, power, and authority with Almighty God. (Luke 22:69 TPT). So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most. — Hebrews 4:16 NLT

“Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which is translated, “God with us.” — Matthew 1:23 (NKJV) No matter what we go through in this life, God is always with us. His Presence goes before us and behind. He surrounds us and dwells within us. In Isaiah 43:2 (NLT), the LORD says, “When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you.” (Isaiah 43:2 NLT) Have no fear, for the LORD is here. With God all things are possible. He makes a way where there seems to be no way. Even the wind and waves obey Him. He makes a way through the sea and a path through the mighty waters (Isaiah 43:16).

In Mark 10:15-16 (AMP) , Jesus said, “ I assure you and most solemnly say to you, whoever does not receive and welcome the kingdom of God like a child will not enter it at all.” And He took the children [one by one] in His arms and blessed them [with kind, encouraging words], placing His hands on them. Children naturally trust their parents. They want to go wherever mom and dad go. Let us receive the kingdom of our heavenly Father confidently trusting in Him. God is good. Jesus wants to take you in His arms and bless you. The kingdom of God is about righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. (Romans 14:17) Receive it. But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in the house of God; I trust [confidently] in the lovingkindness of God forever and ever. (Psalm 52:8 AMP) We can always trust in God’s unfailing love.

For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; And the government will rest on His shoulders; And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace. — Isaiah 9:6 (NASB) When you need someone to talk to, call out to the Wonderful Counselor. He is intimately acquainted with all our ways. We don’t have a priest who is out of touch with our reality. He’s been through weakness and testing, experienced it all—all but the sin. (Hebrews 4:15 MSG) In the midst of turmoil, call upon the Prince of Peace. Jesus said, “ Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful. ” (John 14:27 NASB) When you are feeling weak and weary, call on Jesus, our Mighty God. He is the strength of our lives. God highly exalted Him, and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow, of those who are in heaven...

“Never! Can a mother forget her nursing child? Can she feel no love for the child she has borne? But even if that were possible, I would not forget you!”  — Isaiah 49:15 (NLT) The enemy wants us to believe that God has forgotten about us, but the truth is He does not forget us for one second. So precious are His thoughts about us, they cannot be numbered! (Psalm 139:17 NLT). The very hairs on your head are all numbered (Matthew 10:30 NLT). John 10:3 says, the Good Shepherd, calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. He knows your name my friend, and He cares about you! You are never forgotten. You are always on His mind and in His heart.

But as for us, the LORD is our God, and we have not forsaken Him; — 2 Chronicles 13:10 (NKJV) No matter what happens in this life or how bad you mess up, never run away from the LORD our God. The LORD is a shield around us; He is our glory, the one who holds our heads high (Psalm 3:3 NLT). He is like the father of the prodigal son (Luke 15:11-24), He is filled with love and compassion for you. Our heavenly Father is always watching out for you. He is waiting with open arms, for you to come to Him and be embraced. He longs to hold you close to His bosom. Run to Him like a little child and let Him smother you with kisses.

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 [of Eternity], Prince of Peace. — Isaiah 9:6 (AMP) Jesus is all you will ever need. He is our Wonderful Counselor. Open up and confide in Him about the concerns of your heart, because He cares for you. He is our Mighty God. Nothing is too difficult for Him. No mountain is too high and no valley is too low. Jesus is the Everlasting Father. He watches over us and takes care of us. He is the Prince of Peace. Jesus has given us His peace. He does not give as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid (John 14:27). Call upon His Name!

“Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which is translated, “God with us.” — Matthew 1:23 (NKJV) No matter what we go through in this life, our comfort is that God is with us. He promises never to cut us off from His Presence. He hides those who trust in Him in the secret place of His presence from the plots of man (Psalm 31:20). When you are going forward on the path the LORD has for you, “Go in peace. The presence of the LORD be with you on your way,” (Judges 18:6). When the enemy tries to steal your joy, remember: In His presence alone, is fullness of joy! (Psalm 16:11)

 “And he arose and came to his father. But when he was still a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. — Luke 15:20 (NKJV) After the lost son, wasted his wealth in wild living, he began to be in want. Eventually, he came to himself, and decided to return home (Luke 15:17-18). While he was still a long way off, his father saw him and had compassion. No matter how far you are away from God today, He sees you and has compassion. You are still His son or daughter and He longs to hold you in His arms. Return to who you really are, a child of God. Come home!

 Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, saying, “Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the East and have come to worship Him.” Matthew 2:1-2 (NKJV) When the wise men set out to seek Jesus, they had to go on a journey. Even though they didn't get there in a day, they were determined to go and worship Jesus Christ, the King of kings. For months they stayed focused on their goal, despite any storms that may have come. And the star which they had seen in the East went before them, till it came and stood over where the young Child was (Luke 2:9). Today we can worship the Lord, right where we are. May we persistent in seeking to worship the Lord, in spirit and in truth. He is the Lord of lords! For unto us a Child is born. Unto us a Son is given; And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Princ...

For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6 (NKJ) After the shepherds saw Jesus, they went back to their flocks, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen. Let us glorify and honor God for sending us His Son, our Savior. Jesus is a Wonderful Counselor, and His ear is always open to hear your voice. He is a Mighty God, who gives us the victory. Jesus is the Prince of Peace. His government and its peace will never end. He will reign forever and ever. Praise the Lord!
