Isaiah 9 · Grade 2

A Great Light

Name Date

Read the Story

Some people lived in darkness. Then they saw a great light. God gave them joy. It was like the joy of harvest time.

Isaiah told about a special child. A child is born to us. A son is given to us. He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. His peace will never end. In the New Testament, Luke 1:32-33 says Jesus will reign on David's throne forever.

Memory Verse

“For a child is born to us. A son is given to us; and the government will be on his shoulders. His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”

Isaiah 9:6 (WEB)
