As the Christmas season remembers the birth of Christ, Isaiah 9:3-5 calls attention to the transforming purpose of that birth. The Messiah does not come merely to shine in the darkness, but to lift burdens, free captives, and establish peace. The joy of Christmas flows from redemption accomplished; the peace of Christmas rests on victory secured by God Himself. Thus, the message of this passage presses the listener to see Christmas not only as a moment of divine arrival but as the beginning of a glorious reversal, where gloom gives way to joy, bondage yields to freedom, and conflict is replaced by lasting peace.

In this final Advent reflection, we look to the prophetic hope of Isaiah 9, recognizing that the birth of Christ marks the beginning of the end for all that is "ugly" and broken in our world. We acknowledge that while we still experience the pain of sickness, war, and loss, we do not live as a defeated people because we know that these things do not have the final word. We understand that the Kingdom of God is a "now but not yet" reality—a work of restoration that has begun in a manger but is not yet complete. Therefore, we choose to intentionally bathe ourselves in beauty and wonder during these holy days, using the joy of the season to push back against darkness and remind ourselves of the ultimate victory and peace that Christ has secured for us.Shameless plug: here's a link to Method(ist) to the Madness, our new, hopefully entertaining podcast about church history. - https://methodisttothemadness.buzzsprout.com/Join us for our daily reflections with Andy.

The Savior that was promised hundreds of years before Jesus came to earth was the Messiah an army under siege needed … not because they needed to be delivered from their enemies but because they needed to be delivered from their sin. Pastor J.D. continues today in Isaiah 7 to show us how to approach the Wonderful Counselor, who knows our sin but instead of condemnation offers us the righteousness of Christ.

Big Idea: The Gift that keeps on giving. Isaiah 9:1-61. The great light.Isaiah 9:1-2Nevertheless, the gloom of the distressed land will not be like that of the former times when he jumbled the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali. But in the future he will bring honor to the way of the sea, to the land east of the Jordan, and to Galilee of the nations. The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; a light has dawned on those living in the land of darkness. 2. A joyful future.Isaiah 9:3-4You have enlarged the nation and increased its joy. The people have rejoiced before you as they rejoice at harvest time and as they rejoiced when dividing spoils. For you have shattered their oppressive yoke and the rod on their shoulders, the staff of their oppressors, just as you did on the day of Midian. 3. The Ultimate Gift. Isaiah 9:5-6For every trampling boot of battle and the bloodied garments of war will be burned as fuel for the fire. For a child will be born for us, a son will be given to us, and the government will be on his shoulders. He will be named Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.Next Steps: Believe: I believe Son of Man wants us to follow his example this week.Become: I will put trust in Son of Man past this holiday season.Be Sent: I will share my faith with someone this month. Discussion Questions: 1. Do you love giving gifts or receiving them?2. Do you enjoy the holidays, or do they make you sad?3. How do you think the people hearing this prophecy felt, knowing they will not live long enough to see it fulfilled? 4. Which of the titles in verse 6-Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father or Prince of Peace- impact you the most? 5. How would you describe the Son of Man as the light of the world to someone? 6. How does “the government will be on His shoulders” change how you view authority and leadership? 7. Pray for the Holy Spirit to show you where to serve this week.
Isaiah prophesied good news for Christmas, 700+ years before Christmas! God promised a Child, a Son to be given for us…God Incarnate, encompassing everything that is wonderful about God Himself. He is God – He is King – He is marvelous! Apple: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/preach-the-word/id1449859151?mt=2 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2aSveQvIs7SPHWB4UcmSUQ
Have you ever noticed that when it's very dark, noises sound louder? Or that it's harder to tell what's real and what isn't? That's our brain trying to keep us safe by increasing our fear. And when we say things are “dark” we don't always mean a dark room or the darkness of night. Sometimes the whole world feels shrouded in a kind of gloomy darkness. When we find ourselves in the darkness, even if we can't see God, God will find us. The light will come to us because God, who loves us more than we could ever imagine, will search for us and find us wherever we are. Even a small glimpse of the light of Christ calms our fears and reminds us that one day the door will open all the way, the Son will come again, and all our fears will go away forever. Until that day, we live by the light we can see. The sun, shining on us. The Bible, encouraging us. Christmas, reminding us about Jesus. Our family and friends, loving us always and no matter what.

In What Child Is This?, we explore the powerful prophecy of Isaiah 9:1–7, a Christmas passage that reaches far beyond the manger and into the heart of God's redemptive plan for the world. Isaiah reveals that the first rays of Messiah's light did not shine in Jerusalem's temple but in despised Galilee, a region crushed by Assyria and mocked by the world. God intentionally chose the darkest and most overlooked place to announce the coming of His Son, proving that divine hope shines brightest where human hope has failed. Galilee would later become the launch point of Jesus' earthly ministry, fulfilling Isaiah's prophecy and revealing God's grace to the humble, the broken, and the forgotten. Isaiah also unveils the identity of the Child: Wonderful Counselor, divine wisdom beyond human understanding. Mighty God, fully God in human flesh. Everlasting Father, the source and sustainer of eternal life. Prince of Peace, the One who will ultimately end all war and rebellion. This Child is not merely a baby in a manger. He is the rightful King who will sit on David's throne, rule the nations, and establish a kingdom of justice, righteousness, and everlasting peace. Scripture declares that the zeal of the Lord will accomplish this without fail. Christmas is the down payment of the Kingdom. The cradle guarantees the crown. The First Advent assures the Second. This message calls us to see Christmas not only as a moment in history, but as a promise of what is still to come.

A Child Is Born: When Light Breaks through the Darkness (Isaiah 9:1–7) - Dr. Bill Cook
Join us as Evan Alrutz continues our Advent sermon, Holiday Hopelessness: Don't Trust Your Feelings, with a sermon entitled "When the World Feels Dark, There's Light" from Isaiah 9:2-7; John 1:1–5, 14; and 1 John 1:5-10.
Jesus Christ is the only one who can save us from our sinful gloom and give us glorious joy.
Man can live about 40 days without food, about three days without water, and about eight minutes without air, but man cannot live a second without hope. Our world is filled with hopelessness. It burdens my heart to think about how many people walk through the doors of LBC each week in a state of hopelessness. A business executive who has let the pursuit of worldly success ruin her life and lead her down a path of destruction. A father who has lost his job and feels embarrassed and humiliated. A man or woman who has received a devastating health diagnosis. My prayer is that as they arrive here at LBC, they would begin to find hope. Not a hope that is found in a program or even a payment but a hope that is found in the person of Jesus Christ. Biblical hope comes from a divine intervention. God Himself entering into time and space and history to save us from our dark and sinful condition. Isaiah 9 reminds us of that hope. Isaiah 9 is Isaiah’s way of saying, “Keep your fork!” The story isn’t over. The best is yet to come. Hope is on the way! I pray you will make plans today to join us for worship this weekend as we examine the hope of Christmas in a prophecy made 700 years in advance of Christ’s birth. “For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; and the government will rest on His shoulders; and His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.” — Isaiah 9:6 In Christ, Pastor Chad
