And
He Will Be Called: Wonderful Counselor,
Mighty
God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
His
Government And Its Peace Will Never End.
Scripture
Isaiah
9
6
For a child is born to us,
a son is given to us.
The government will rest on his shoulders.
And he will be called:
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
7 His government and its peace
will never end.
a son is given to us.
The government will rest on his shoulders.
And he will be called:
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
7 His government and its peace
will never end.
Observation
I
don't know about you but I look forward to the day when Jesus rules
and the government is on His shoulders. Jesus is not the prince of
this world right now.
Satan
is the prince and ruler of this world at the moment. So no wonder
there is so much evil, so much corruption, and so much confusion!
But
even though Jesus is not the prince of this world right now nothing
happens that does not fit in to His ultimate plan.
Why?
Because
Jesus Christ is the King of King and Lord of Lords and one day He is
coming back to rule and His followers will rule with Him!
Russia,
China, North Korea, Syria, Iraq, Iran and every country on this
planet, including ours, are all part of God's master plan. Not one
leader rises to power without our Heavenly Father's permission.
He
puts them up and takes them out when He chooses. Nothing that happens
on this planet is a surprise to Him.
He
is in control. He is Sovereign. He is Lord.
John
12:31
31
The time for judging this world has come, when Satan,
the ruler of this world, will be cast out.
Daniel
2:21
He
controls the course of world events; he removes kings and sets up
other kings. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the
scholars.
Revelation
22:12-13
(Jesus speaking)
“Look, I am coming soon, bringing my reward with me to repay all
people according to their deeds. 13 I am
the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and
the End.”
Application
I
will continue to look at what is happening in our world through the
lens of the Bible. How about you?
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, You are not surprised by the evil in this world. Satan is a
master at deception, corruption and evil. He tricks people. They are
hoodwinked and believe his lies. They are blinded from the Truth. I
pray that You might open up their eyes so they can see things from
Your perspective. Show them Your Truth. Thank You for letting me know
through Your Word that You are in control right now and none of this
craziness in our world goes by unnoticed by You. You are Sovereign.
You are in control. You are the King of Kings and Lord of Lords and
there in no God but You!
