The song goes, “What a mighty God we serve! What a mighty God we serve! Angels bow before Him, heaven and earth adore Him, what a mighty God we serve!” I can hear it being sung at camp, at church, and in college devotionals. It is a wonderful song that defines who we are and Who we belong to. In Isaiah 9-12, Isaiah gives a description of the coming Messianic era promised by God. The time of Jesus walking the earth and leading His people. The time when the church would live under the leadership of Christ. It would be a time when God shone a “great light” in the world and call people to repentance and relationship. The Messiah would carry names and titles that would set Him apart. Names like “Wonderful Counselor”, “Mighty God”, “Father of Eternity”, and “Prince of Peace.” This week’s reading draws our eyes and our hearts to see Jesus. To know that He comes to transform our lives. That He comes to walk closely with us. That He comes to draw us into a relationship that impresses His image on every part of our lives.
