O come, Thou Dayspring, from on high;

And cheer us by Thy drawing night;

Disperse the gloomy clouds of night,

And death’s dark shadows put to flight.

As Savior, as deity, as Christ the Lord––be assured of His love. He came to die so you can have eternal life. He defeated death itself.

Isaiah expresses the deity of Jesus Christ. He is our Mighty God! Spurgeon questioned, “Is this child, then, to us the mighty God?” Yes! Unto us, Jesus is not just a Man, but His nature is holy and divine. That being so, He is able to save the worst of sinners. Everlasting Father reveals to us His eternal existence. He is our Father, who art in heaven (Matthew 6:9). Prince of Peace is His exalted name––the Ruler of rulers. As such, He seeks our welfare, mediates for us as sinners to restore our relationship with God, the Father, and gives to us His peace.
