For unto us a child is born

The prophecy opens with the astonishing simplicity of a baby’s arrival. God steps into human history through real flesh and blood.

•Luke 2:11 affirms the fulfillment: “Today in the City of David a Savior has been born to you. He is Christ the Lord!”.

•Galatians 4:4 reminds us this happened “when the fullness of time had come,” showing divine precision.

• The birth of Jesus is no legend; it is the literal moment when heaven touched earth.

The wording shifts from birth to gift. This Son is heaven’s offering, extended to “us.”

•John 3:16 declares, “For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son.”

•Romans 8:32 underscores the generosity: God “did not spare His own Son but gave Him up for us all.”

• The gift language stresses grace—our rescue is something received, not earned.

The Child carries authority that never rests on human polling or military strength.

• Jesus announces inMatthew 28:18, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me.”

•Revelation 11:15 foretells the final outcome: “The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ, and He will reign forever and ever.”

• Because His shoulders hold the government, believers rest; the world is not spinning out of control.

Literally, “a wonder of a counselor.” He guides perfectly.

•Isaiah 28:29 celebrates the LORD’s wisdom: “He is wonderful in counsel and excellent in wisdom.”

•John 14:26 links Jesus and His Spirit: “The Advocate, the Holy Spirit… will teach you all things and remind you of everything I have told you.”

• When decisions loom, we don’t guess; we ask our Wonderful Counselor.

The title leaves no wiggle room—this Child is fully divine.

•John 1:1 states, “In the beginning was the Word… and the Word was God.”

•Colossians 2:9 confirms, “In Christ all the fullness of the Deity dwells bodily.”

• Because He is Mighty God, nothing—sin, death, Satan—can withstand His power (Hebrews 2:14-15).

Not a confusion of persons within the Trinity, but a description of Jesus’ timeless, father-like care.

•Hebrews 13:8 assures us, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.”

•Psalm 103:13 pictures paternal compassion: “As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear Him.”

• Our Savior’s shepherding heart never expires; His promises outlast every calendar.

Peace here is shalom—wholeness with God, others, and ourselves.

•Ephesians 2:14 proclaims, “For He Himself is our peace.”

•John 14:27 offers His personal pledge: “Peace I leave with you; My peace I give you.”

•Romans 5:1 shows the root: “Since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.”

• One day that peace will flood the earth (Isaiah 11:9); until then, it floods believing hearts.

Isaiah 9:6 paints a single, stunning portrait: the promised Messiah is truly human and fully God, carrying eternal authority, perfect wisdom, unstoppable power, fatherly care, and reconciling peace. Every title answers a human need, and every need drives us back to Him. Trust the Child given, submit to the King enthroned, and walk in the peace only He supplies.
