Devotion: Wonderful

Isaiah 9:6 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.

Some translations don't put a comma between Wonderful and Counselor. Personally, I think a comma is appropriate.

When you look at the other names, Wonderful is appropriate as the first name to be listed for Jesus.

He was born a Child and a Son yet He is our Counselor.

He was born a Child and a Son yet He is the Mighty God.

He was born a Child and a Son yet He is the everlasting Father, the Father of all eternity.

He was born a Child and a Son yet He is our Prince of Peace.

Indeed Jesus is Wonderful! All glory to Him.
