It’s a brand new year 2024 and the perfect time to take steps to move forward with new ideas. New ideas and old ways do not mix.
Expecting new ideas to work when a person continues to procrastinate, has poor self-discipline, or holds on to the past, will hinder them from moving forward also hinder their new ideas from becoming successful.
Scripture: Philippians 3:12-14 Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. 13 Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, 14 I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus”

God with us
Isaiah 7:14 “Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His name Immanuel.”
Matthew 1:23 “Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel, which is translated, God with us.”
Isaiah was a prophet in the Old Testament that prophesied about the coming Messiah, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Many have said that the book of Isaiah contains more references to the coming Messiah than any other book in the Bible. It has been considered to be a major prophetic book in the Old Testament.
Isaiah 9:6 “For to 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.”
Isaiah 9:6 is one of many “Messianic prophecies” that not only tells of the Messiah coming, but describes who He is and what He will do:
A Son is given (Immanuel)…..He came as a gift to be with us here on earth
He has a responsibility…Government
He has several names:
Wonderful….excellent / great
Counselor….someone who gives guidance, teaches or gives encouragement / having supernatural wisdom
Mighty….possessing great power and strength
God….the great “I AM” being everything
Everlasting….eternal, never ending, lasting for ever
Father….having the nature of protecting / providing
Prince of peace….ruling with dignity and authority
The Lord Jesus Christ fulfilled the Old Testament Messianic Prophecy in several of the New Testament books;
Matthew 1:23 “Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel, which is translated, God with us.”
Born in Bethlehem [Mica 5:2, Matthew 2:1]
Anointed by the Holy Spirit [Isaiah 11:2, Matthew 3:16-17]
Ministered in Galilee [Isaiah 9:1, Matthew 4:12-16]
Rejected by Jews [Psalm 118:22, 1st Peter 2:7]
Betrayed by a friend [Psalm 41:9; John 13:18]
Rose from the dead [Psalm 16:10, Mark 16:6]
“Father in heaven, thank you for the fulfillment of the messianic prophecy that prophesied the coming of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ here on earth…Amen”

“For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.”New Living Translation Ephesians 6:12
