Today’s devotion is from Isaiah 9:6-7
‘For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name 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, upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, to order it and establish it with judgment and justice from that time forward, even forever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.’

Jesus, the Creator of the universe came to earth and established a government of favor, joy, peace, prosperity and blessing. The government that Jesus established is not a democracy, it is not a capitalistic, socialistic or a communistic government, it is a kingdom theocracy… in other words, Jesus rules as a sovereign king according to the New Covenant Word of God.
The increase of this government will be continual and exponential, and of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end. The good news is that every one of you born again believers are a part of this amazing government… we get to rule and reign with Christ!
The government of God in Christ is not a political government but a spiritual government…
As rulers under Christ and in Christ, we get to speak to mountains, we have authority over all of the work of the devil and we get to carry out the mandate of Christ as specified in the great commission and in the New Covenant. We have been given all authority in Christ to bring freedom, peace, joy, favor, divine health, prosperity and blessing here on earth in Jesus Name!
The good news is that the zeal of the Lord hosts will perform this…
The New Living Translation says it this way, ‘The passionate commitment of the Lord of Heaven’s Armies will make this happen!’ We don’t have to make it happen, Jesus and His angel armies will make it happen… His yoke upon us is easy and His burden is light! As we step out by faith, Jesus brings His kingdom promises to pass!
Marry Christmas all, let’s do this!
