"His Name is Mighty God"

Length Approximately: 00:38:54

Isaiah 9:6

---
One of the names of the Christ who was born in Bethlehem--Jesus, God's own Son--is "Mighty God." The prophet Isaiah declared that the mighty One was was coming would come "robed in splendor, striding forth in the greatness of His strength...mighty to save." As Mighty God, Jesus utterly defeated sin, death and the devil through His death and resurrection! And thus by His coming He has split all humanity into two camps--the repentant (saved) and the unrepentant (lost). And so the message of Christmas is one of great urgency--"repent!" And also great joy for those who thus receive it.

"His Name is Counselor"
Length Approximately 00:42:04
Isaiah 9:6-7
---
Jesus Christ is the "Counselor," sent according to God's promise. He is the "counsel" of God, meaning that He was and is God's plan for providing salvation for lost and sinful mankind...a counsel/plan of divine love and grace that was established in eternity before He had even created us. And Jesus is also the all-knowing and all-wise "Counselor" who seeks to minister to us in every need and in every way. He sorts us out, He sets us straight, and He guides us into the pathways of what is true, right, and good. He is our Savior, and our truest Friend.

"His Name is Wonderful"
Length Approximately 00:36:42
Isaiah 9:1-7
---
"Wonderful" is one of the titles assigned by the prophet Isaiah to the coming Savior, the Christ--the one who would bring light into darkness, life into death, freedom into bondage, and deliverance from oppression. This title declares that the incarnation of the Christ is utterly miraculous! The incarnation of Christ is the greatest miracle of God, the one upon which Christ's redemptive work entirely depends. He is Wonderful, and all He does is wonderful...so we should be wonder-FULL, filled with wonder at the miracle He is, and the miracle of His salvation.
