Immanuel (Emmanuel)
Is 7:14

During the Christmas season, we hear the phrase ‘God with us’.  It is from Isaiah 7 vs 14 referring to the name Immanuel, which is often interpreted as ‘God with us’.

The name Immanuel carries even more significance. The letters of Hebrew words have meaning and looking at meanings of the letters of Immanuel.

We find that the letters used in the name Immanuel refer to a Strong Leader who is Jesus Christ, who came to earth for us through the mighty knowledge and insight of God  and secured life for us, by dying for us at Calvary.  It was the greatest action of love that has ever been seen. Not only is God with us, but He has secured life for us through His Son, Jesus!

All we have to do is to believe in Him.

Now when you hear the name Immanuel, remember it speaks of why Christ came to earth.  He wants us to believe in Him, and when we do, truly God is with us.
