For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6
In this prophecy concerning the Messiah, one of the titles belonging to Christ is ‘the mighty God’. Was Jesus mighty? Is Jesus God? What does Jesus mean to you?
Jesus Christ’s divine power was on display during His earthly ministry. He healed all manner of diseases by speaking a word, or by touching the person, or by the person touching Him, even his garment on one occasion. Sometimes Jesus healed without seeing the person at all, and always without the use of modern medicines. Nobody was ever turned away and Jesus never failed. NEVER! Not once! Besides these great miracles, Jesus also cast out evil spirits and displayed power over the elements. It became clear that Jesus Christ was mighty and His works were divine.
Jesus was willing to help and all He required was faith.
The Centurion – “speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.” Matthew 7:8
The sick woman – “If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole.” Matthew 9:21
The leper – “If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.” Mark 1:40
They did not question Christ’s power but His will in the matter. It was not, can Jesus Christ help but will He help and how will He help.
That’s the faith needed today.
Believe Jesus will save you from your sin.
Believe Jesus will hear your prayers and answer your questions. Believe Jesus will comfort your hurting heart.
Believe Jesus will guide your steps and lead you correctly. Believe Jesus will work all things out for good.
Believe Jesus will provide your needs.
Believe Jesus will get you through today and lead you tomorrow. Believe Jesus has a plan for your life.
Believe Jesus will lead you into eternity.
Believe Jesus has a place waiting for you.
Why? Because Jesus Christ is the mighty God! Believe in Jesus Christ and be blessed.
