Sacred Sunday ~ Christ Foretold


"For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
7 Of the greatness of his government and peace
there will be no end.
He will reign on David’s throne
and over his kingdom,
establishing and upholding it
with justice and righteousness
from that time on and forever.
The zeal of the Lord Almighty
will accomplish this." 

                                  ~Isaiah 9 v 6-7

"Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will be
with child and will give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel. "

                                 ~Isaiah 7:14

"1 A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse; from his roots a
Branch will bear fruit.
2 The Spirit of the LORD will rest on him-- the Spirit of wisdom
and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of power, the
Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD--
3 and he will delight in the fear of the LORD. He will not judge
by what he sees with his eyes, or decide by what he hears with his
ears;
4 but with righteousness he will judge the needy, with justice he
will give decisions for the poor of the earth. He will strike the
earth with the rod of his mouth; with the breath of his lips he
will slay the wicked.
5 Righteousness will be his belt and faithfulness the sash around
his waist."
                                   ~Isaiah 11:1-5
