Topic: Jesus Is The Saviour.

Memory Verse: Isaiah 9:8,18. The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel.

Bible Reading :Isaiah 9:6-7 KJV. Key Verse: v6.

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. Of 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.

Isaiah here prophesied about the birth of Jesus Christ who is the light of the world. Before he came on the scene, the whole world was in darkness of sin, confussion, religious intolerance, selfish greed and wickedness of men, etc. all because of the depravity of the fallen man, who desperately needed help from a higher power. “The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light. They lived in a land of shadows, but now light is shining on them. You have given them great joy, Lord; you have made them happy. They rejoice in what you have done, as people rejoice when they harvest their corn or when they divide captured wealth. For you have broken the yoke that burdened them     and the rod that beat their shoulders. You have defeated the nation     that oppressed and exploited your people,     just as you defeated the army of Midian long ago.”
Isaiah 9:2-4 GNB.

The child whom we remember or celebrate his birth today is not an ordinary child, but the son of God. God taking the form of a man in order save as many as will believe in him from the fallen nature and the attendant depravity of the mind. “And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time?” Matthew 8:29. On earth, even demons recognised him as son of God who had capacity to torment, or do anything he wants to them. It is good to note that Isaiah said that this son is not just an ordinary son of God, but one who will rule the nations on behalf of the father. That is the reason every knee including that of demons, seen and unseen forces must bow to him. “And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow (as ruler), of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father (who placed him on the throne).” Philippians 2:8-11 KJV.

Now if you watch his earthly life closely from the scriptures, you will see that all that Isaiah prophesied about him came to pass in fulness. He came to the earth to establish God’s kingdom or rule on earth in the hearts of them that believe their colour or race notwithstanding. He has become our earthly guide, teacher, king and counsellor through his Spirit as given to us at pentecost. “Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: Of sin, because they believe not on me; Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.” John 16:7-11. As the prince of peace, he reconciled us back to God the Father or made peace with his shed blood. Through him all men can be saved. Colossians 1:20, Acts 4:12.

Prayer: Thank you Father God for giving us your son Jesus to save us from our sins. Lord Jesus, I worship you today because of who you are and what you have done for me. I surrender my life to you. I will serve you till the end of my life in Jesus wonderful name…. Amen 🙏🏿.
