Scripture:
Isaiah 9:1-7
Nevertheless, there will be no more
gloom for those who were in distress. In the past he humbled the land of
Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, but in the future he will honor Galilee of
the Gentiles, by the way of the sea, along the Jordan—
The people walking in darkness have
seen a great light; on those living in the land of the shadow of death a light
has dawned.
You have enlarged the nation and
increased their joy; they rejoice before you as people rejoice at the harvest, as
men rejoice when dividing the plunder.
For as in the day of Midian’s
defeat, you have shattered the yoke that burdens them, the bar across their
shoulders, the rod of their oppressor.
Every warrior’s boot used in battle and
every garment rolled in blood will be destined for burning, will be fuel for
the fire.
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.
Of
the increase of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on
David’s throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice
and righteousness from that time on and forever.
The zeal of the Lord Almighty will accomplish this.
Genesis 1:3,4
And God said, ‘Let there be light,’ and there was light.
God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness”
Exodus 10:21-23
Then
the LORD said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward the sky so that darkness
will spread over Egypt—darkness that can be felt.” So Moses stretched out his
hand toward the sky, and total darkness covered all Egypt for three days. No
one could see anyone else or leave his place for three days. Yet all the
Israelites had light in the places where they lived.
