Big Idea: Wise leaders are awesome… foolish leaders make your life awful.
Isaiah
For a child will be born for us, a son will be given to us, and the government will be on his shoulders. He will be named Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.
Isaiah
I. Glory from gloom
Nevertheless, the gloom of the distressed land will not be like that of the former times when he humbled the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali. But in the future he will bring honor to the way of the sea, to the land east of the Jordan, and to Galilee of the nations.
II. Honor from humility
But in the future he will bring honor to the way of the sea, to the land east of the Jordan, and to Galilee of the nations.
III. Light from darkness 
The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; a light has dawned on those living in the land of darkness.
