Read Isaiah 9
Think About It:
The chapter begins on a high note with the promise of the Messiah: Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father and Prince of Peace and why we need Him.
- Pride and self-sufficiency lead God’s people into captivity. What sins can take you captive?
- It seemed no amount of correction could turn the people back to God. Can you imagine God’s fist poised to strike? Yet, His plan for their return was already in place.
Family Time:
- What would those who walked in darkness see? (verse 2)
- What would the child born unto them be called? (verse 6)
