"Isaiah was what's known, in fact he's probably the most well known, of a prophet in the Old Testament. Now if you're not familiar with church or you're kind of newer to church and you hear that word prophet, you might not know exactly what that means. A prophet is somebody who literally, if you're taking notes, speaks forth the Word of God. That's what a prophet does. And for Isaiah and for several prophets in the Old Testament, God gave them a supernatural knowledge not only to speak forth his Word, but to speak what was going to happen in the future."

"The people walking in darkness have seen a great light. The people walking in darkness have seen a great light. The people walking in darkness have seen a great light. On those living in the land of deep darkness, a light has dawned. You have enlarged the nation and increased their joy. They rejoice before you as people rejoice at the harvest, as warriors 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." [00:36:58] (25 seconds)
"And the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. 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." [00:37:51] (31 seconds)
"These words that God's inspiring Isaiah to write down are specifically about this Savior that we know by the name of Jesus. He's going to bring light into this dark place. He's going to bring light into this Jesus. And if you notice verse 6, he refers to this little child with several different names, doesn't he? He says he's a wonderful counselor, a mighty God. Then he says he's everlasting father. He's the prince of peace." [00:39:03] (28 seconds)
"Jesus says, relax, I got this, and he stepped up to the tomb where Lazarus was laid, the Bible says, and what did he do? He spoke, and he says, Lazarus, come out, and a dead man full of the linen wrappings walked out of the tomb toward Jesus. You don't think that blew people's minds? Jesus was full of wonder and amazement. He blew our minds. This is the type of Savior we worship. He's a wonder -filled counselor." [00:46:00] (40 seconds)
"In order to help solve a problem, you've got to know a little bit about it, right? And in Colossians chapter two, verse three, the Bible says that Jesus was full of all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. In other words, he was the smartest man who ever lived. I think we've got to think about that, because when we think of who was the smartest man who ever lived? Some people say Einstein. Some people say Dave Ambrose. But most people, most smart people, forget about Jesus." [00:47:06] (29 seconds)
"Because Leanne is a good counselor for us because she knows exactly what we're going through. She knows what we're facing because she also has adult children. She gets it. How is Jesus a wonderful counselor? Well, check this out. This passage is written about Jesus from the book of Hebrews chapter four. Here's what the Bible says, referring to Jesus. We do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way just as we are, yet he did not sin." [00:49:01] (36 seconds)
