TUESDAY 06.02.2018
"HIS NAME SHALL BE WONDERFUL"

"... His name shall be called Wonderful ... " (Isaiah 9:6)

"They were completely amazed and said again and again, “Everything he does is wonderful. He even makes the deaf to hear and gives speech to those who cannot speak.” (Mark 7:37 NLT)

KEY STATEMENT

IN THIS TEXT, Isaiah, by the Spirit of God, is prophesying concerning the birth of Jesus, the coming Messiah.

When Isaiah says, "His name shall be called Wonderful", the adjective “wonderful” is the same Hebrew word used for “wonder” or “miracle”, meaning not that we would address Him as Wonderful, but that He should be Wonderful.

It also means that Jesus Christ the coming Messiah would exhibit qualities answering to that name: He would be a miracle-working, wonder-working God. He means in other words that:

“His Name shall be called Marvelous”

“His Name shall be called Surprise”

“His Name shall be called Miraculous”

Everything concerning Jesus was only marvellous from his conception to his ascension.

A. - At 12 years old, Jesus was already displaying an unusual understanding of Scriptures causing the doctors to marvel at him. (Luke 2:47)

B. - When Jesus was speaking, people marveled at the words coming out of his mouth. (John 7:46 / Luke 4:22 / Mark 6:2)

C. - When Jesus was silent, even his silence caused Pilate to marvel. (Mark 15:5)

D. - When Jesus was sleeping in the midst of the storm, even his sleep caused his disciples to marvel at him. (Mark 4:38)

E. - When Jesus died, the soldier as well as Pilate marveled at his death. (Mark 15:44 / Luke 23:47)

F. - Jesus was operating at a different level of wisdom, knowledge and understanding causing people to marvel at his answers. (Mark 12:17 / Luke 20:26 / John 7:15)
