JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Light Reflection is from Isaiah 9:7.

Many of us are familiar with the prophecy concerning Jesus in verse 6. For to us a child is born, to us a son is given.

When Jesus was born, He was God’s greatest gift to the world. Grace and redemption came through Jesus.

Verse 7 reveals what His Kingdom will look like when He comes again.

“Of the greatness 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.”

Can you imagine a world with no violence, or bloodshed or war? The prophet Isaiah envisioned it under the rule and reign of Jesus. What a day of blessing that will be!

This Light Reflection inspires us to know Jesus as our King and Prince of Peace in the Year to Shine.
