Names of God
“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.” (Isa. 9:6 NIV)
God has many names and titles in the Bible. Each one tells us something important about Him—His character and how He relates to us. And how we must relate to Him. Here is another one of His many Names, which is Mighty God.
Mighty God
Colossians 1 says that Jesus Christ was not just present at creation, but He is the origin of everything created. “For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth” (v. 16). Bethlehem simply represented a change of address for Jesus for thirty-three years.
Therefore
As Mighty God, Jesus will judge all the people of the earth (Rev. 18:8, 10). Then He will sit on His eternal throne and reign in great power and authority (Rev. 11:15–17; 12:10). Every creature in heaven and on earth will bow down and worship Him. Heaven will ring with the shouting: “Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God” for He was slain, and He alone is worthy “to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and praise” forever and ever (Rev. 5:12–13; 19:1).
