Isaiah 9 [selected and adapted]

1 The light has dawned [upon] those who dwelt in a land of deep darkness


When did this happen? at the Incarnation: when God became flesh in Jesus

3 …you have shattered the yoke that burdened them; the collar that lay heavy on their shoulders.


When did this happen? At the Incarnation: when Jesus was born in Bethlehem

4 For to us a child is born and to us a son is given

And who is this baby?

5 his name will be called: Wonderful Counselor; Mighty God; Everlasting Father; Prince of Peace

This new-born came to rule over all nations

and the government will be upon his shoulder. 7 …the throne of David and … his kingdom,


And what will be His program?

to establish and uphold [His Kingdom] with justice and righteousness.


Can we be sure this shall happen? Yes!

[and] 6 Of the increase of his government there will be no end, 8 … the zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this.

[By doing all this, God has] 2 increased [our] joy and given [us] great gladness


Ours is to see the King at work and to serve Him
