THE ONE THAT OUTSHINES ALL OTHERS
It saddens my heart to know there are so many different religions that worship false gods. The Bible is particular with this name given to Jesus, who is the ‘One Mediator,’ there simply is no other way to get to heaven!
“For there is one God and ‘one mediator' between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus.” 1 Timothy 2:5
‘Jesus the Messiah,’ name above all names! I love that song, for it says it all! Jesus, The Messiah!
“The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, “We have found ‘the Messiah” (that is, the Christ). John 1:41
‘Mighty God,’ another name for Jesus, is among several other words this wonderful Savior is!
“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. Isaiah 9:6
Interestingly enough, Morning Star was also the name given to Satan when he fell. Yet in Revelation, Jesus isn’t just the Morning Star. He is the 'Bright Morning Star,' which means He outshined all others. His mercies are new every morning!
“I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you[a] this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and ‘the bright Morning Star.” Revelation 22:16
LET US PAUSE:
In today’s devotion, let us consider that Jesus is the only way before the Father. He cares deeply about everything going on in your life. He awaits each day for us to come and chat with Him, telling Him every care we have. Why don’t you pull up a chair and have a friendly chat with our Mediator this day?
About this Plan
Jesus was born over 2000 years ago! His Mother, Mary, was expecting the birth of her son Incarnate! Today, we too are 'expecting' Jesus, not as a baby, but as the One honored with so many names. In this 27-day Advent Devotional, let us go more profound as we discover Jesus through His many names that reveal His character! He is our soon-coming King!
