105 of 365 - Mighty God

…Mighty God… Isaiah 9:6
 
Here in Isaiah’s prophesy we again see the deity of Jesus, the promised Messiah. He was no ordinary human born to man. He was the Son of God. But He also was and is God.
 
Who or what comes to mind when you hear “mighty”?
 
One definition of MIGHTY is, “possessing great and impressive power or strength.” Not only is Jesus the Wonderful Counselor, but he is also powerful and mighty enough to do what He says He will do.
 
This word might is also used in military settings…a warrior word. Jesus can and will defeat Satan.  Jesus fights for us!
 
Look at what some of God’s might can do…
 
Speak the world into existence
Conquer death
Heal
Forgive
Restore
Redeem
Answer prayers
Calm the wind and sea
Liberate
Bring order out of chaos
Love unconditionally
 
He can do incredible things, and He can also CHANGE US on the inside. He has the power to work in us and change our fear into fierceness, our pain into purpose, our doubt into doing, and so much more.
 
He not only saves us, but He makes us new and whole and useful for His kingdom. Something only a Mighty God could do.
 
Question: Can you think of any other mighty things Jesus can do?
