Isaiah 9:6 (NKJV)
For unto us a Child is born,
Unto us a Son is given;
And the government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called
Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Honestly, I have always thought of God, the Father, as Mighty God. If I need help in a serious way I might call out to Mighty God and in my mind I am thinking of God the Father. However, as we are focusing on Jesus through Christmas, His birthday celebration, Mighty God takes on a new dynamic.
As I think of Jesus as Mighty God, there is an enormous amount of evidence of Jesus demonstrating the might of His authority as God; but there is one that stands out above the rest. Right off the bat, I think of how He was so cool, calm and collected when the devil came to tempt Him in the wilderness. Mighty God spoke the Word of God and the devil couldn't entice, overpower, or dangle his power to entice Mighty God to bow before him. Jesus demonstrated His authority as Mighty God over the devil.
Mighty God spoke and the tempest calmed and the winds were at peace.
Mighty God spoke and the legion of demons came out of a man.
Mighty God spoke and ten lepers became clean.
Mighty God spoke and 2 loaves and 5 fishes fed 5,000 people.
Mighty God spoke, "I Am" and soldiers and the mob fell to their knees.
I am sure you can think of Jesus demonstrating His position and authority as Mighty God. But the one that I can't wait to see the replay in heaven is when Mighty God walked into hell to announce His victory, freed the captives and then walked out of the grave!
I allow my mind to picture what happened from the time Jesus gave up His Spirit on the cross to His arrival back on earth. He was no longer just a man. He was and is and continues to be Mighty God. He is second to none. Maybe when breath returned to His body in the grave and His feet hit the ground, the power of Mighty God exploded the stone from the opening of the grave. The grave just couldn't contain the power within Mighty God.
Father, my mind is still trying to conceive the power Jesus demonstrated before He allowed Himself to be crucified. He is Mighty God. He demonstrated the power and might of the love within. He released and walked in the fullness of being Mighty God. Nothing could stop Him. No wind was too strong. No sea could swallow Him. No demons could overpower Him. No cross could take what only He could give. Mighty God came to give me freedom of life, fullness of joy, understanding and wisdom, lead me into triumph, defeat the enemy, grant a sound mind, faith abounding, peace empowering and purpose persisting. Mighty God I worship You and look forward with anticipation celebrating Your birthday, in Jesus' name amen.
