God is your everlasting Father!
I love this next name given to Jesus that we’re discussing today…“For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given...And His name will be called...Everlasting Father…” Isaiah 9:6
It’s surprising to see the words “son” and “father” right next to each other describing the same person. But I believe that it’s the heart of God, the Father’s heart, speaking in this prophecy. And I believe that God wanted us to always remember that He desires to be a father for us. I love that God specifies by saying “everlasting.” Another version says “Eternal Father.”
God wants you to remember that He is faithful, always present with you, and that nothing could ever change that. He was, is, and always will be your Father!
And as your perfect Father, He knows what is good for you. He will willingly and gladly give you what you need.
The Bible says, “ If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to who asks Him!” Matthew 7:11
God is a good Father to you! Ask Him for good things!
You are a miracle!

About this Plan
In this reading plan we will look at different names for the Son of God from the book of Isaiah. In the Old Testament, the prophet Isaiah announced the birth of Jesus, about 700 years before His birth. Different names are used for Him and each of these names reveals something of the heart of the Father. Written by Eric Celerier for A Miracle Every Day.
