Isaiah’s Prophecy
- Our hearts gravitate towards neglecting Christ while we celebrate Christmas.
- Jesus is the fulfillment of ancient prophecy and the answer for current unrest.
- This prophecy answers four of society’s critical questions:
- Can I trust Jesus’ teaching?
- Is Jesus really God?
- Does Jesus even care for me?
- Is Jesus able to make peace out of this mess?
Jesus’ Teaching
- As the Wonderful Counselor, Jesus offers incomparable guidance.
- Referring to Jesus as Lord is not the same as obeying Him as Lord (6:46).
- All encounter storms, but only some of us make it through them (6:47-49).
- The difference between a home’s preservation and its devastation is not the amount of information but the degree of application (6:47-49).
Our Application
- Are you unable to follow Jesus’ counsel because you invite opposing advisers?
- Is your life in disarray because you don’t know Jesus’ will or because you have refused to follow it?
- Is there something in Jesus’ past that makes you think He can’t navigate your future?
