The Everlasting Father

The Everlasting Father

December 17, 2020 by Joe D. Ballard

His name shall be called—Everlasting Father!  I’ve been blessed to have an awesome dad in my life.  My Dad has always set such a good, godly example for me to follow.  He has always provided for our family and been faithful to teach us about the love of God.  My Dad is the best man I know, and not only because he is my earthly father and has given me a good example in life, but he was the one who led me to believe and accept Jesus Christ as my Savior and Lord.  Not everyone has that kind of history with their father.  Many have never had a chance to even know their father, and for many, their father just didn’t come around much.  Many have had the sad and unfortunate experience of having an abusive father.  And many have had great fathers, but have already seen them pass from this life.  So just knowing the Messiah coming into the world would be a Father to the Fatherless is a great comfort. 

Isaiah 9:6 “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, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.”

<p class="has-drop-cap" value="<amp-fit-text layout="fixed-height" min-font-size="6" max-font-size="72" height="80">The name itself speaks of family.  Every family needs a father who provides, protects and guides.  Our broken world is full of orphans left alone for many different reasons, living with foster parents or orphanages.  But as a child of God, you are not an orphan.  The fear of an earthly father leaving or abandoning the family can be a thing of the past, because you have “The Everlasting Father” who will never leave you nor forsake you no matter what may come.  Let me ask you, do you live in constant fear of being separated from your Father in heaven?  Have you lived with the pain of rejection by an earthly father?  Be healed today of that pain and by faith embrace “The Everlasting Father.”  You are not alone, because by the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, you are accepted and adopted into the family of God. The name itself speaks of family.  Every family needs a father who provides, protects and guides.  Our broken world is full of orphans left alone for many different reasons, living with foster parents or orphanages.  But as a child of God, you are not an orphan.  The fear of an earthly father leaving or abandoning the family can be a thing of the past, because you have “The Everlasting Father” who will never leave you nor forsake you no matter what may come.  Let me ask you, do you live in constant fear of being separated from your Father in heaven?  Have you lived with the pain of rejection by an earthly father?  Be healed today of that pain and by faith embrace “The Everlasting Father.”  You are not alone, because by the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, you are accepted and adopted into the family of God.
