Old Testament Prophecy

Mighty-God-2

The Prophecy - His Name (Title) Will Be Mighty God
Old Testament Prophecy
New Testament Fulfillment
For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us; And the government will rest on His shoulders; And His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace. There will be no end to the increase of His government or of peace, On the throne of David and over his kingdom, To establish it and to uphold it with justice and righteousness From then on and forevermore. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will accomplish this.(Isaiah 9:6-7)
John 10_30

Description Of Prophecy:

The prophecy in Isaiah 9:6 tells us that one of the names of this "Child to be Born" will be "Mighty God." Biblical names, in many cases, reflect the character and or nature of the one being named. This is just one example of the Bible teaching us that our Messiah, is also Lord and Savior.


Fulfillment:

Our Messiah Jesus demonstrated His power and might on several occasions even before He was born. His power and might is evident in the creation process itself. Speaking about the Messiah John says:

Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. (John 1:3)

Other instances showing Jesus and His power and might include: (1)


Comments:

Who else could claim the title of Might God other than the Lord Himself?.


Related Prophecies:

There is another prophecy that proclaims the Messiah as being both God and man. For more on this please read about the Divine nature of our Savior found in the Isaiah 43:11 prophecy.
