King James Version

What does Isaiah 9:6 mean? →

Passage Context

4For thou hast broken the yoke of his burden, and the staff of his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, as in the day of Midian.
5For every battle of the warrior is with confused noise, and garments rolled in blood; but this shall be with burning and fuel of fire.
6For 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.
7Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.
8The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel.

Devotional Reflection

LoveGratitudeHope

Isaiah said that even though Jesus is God's Son and Mary's son, He is also ours. Jesus is the child that God gave to the world so that you and I can become His children, too. What could be a better gift than Jesus and God as our Father through Jesus?

Prayer

All I can think to say, O loving Father, on this glorious day when the world pauses to thank You for sending Jesus, is "Thank You!" Then I am once more reminded that everything I possess is a result of Him because it is done in Jesus Christ's name. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
