Unto Us A Child Is Born
By Immanuel | Friday, December 25th, 2009
“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.”
–Isaiah 9:6
God’s Descent
A young woman named Mary was engaged to Joseph from King David’s family. Before they were married, she learned that she was going to have a baby by God’s Holy Spirit. The angel Gabriel greeted Mary and said, “You are truly blessed! The Lord is with you.” Then the angel told Mary, “Don’t be afraid! God is pleased with you, and you will have a son. His name will be Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of God Most High. The Lord God will make him king, as his ancestor David was. He will rule the people of Israel forever, and his kingdom will never end.”
Mary asked the angel, “How can this happen? I am not married!”
The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come down to you, and God’s power will come over you. So your child will be called the holy Son of God… nothing is impossible for God!”
