# Merry Christmas - 2023
## Question: What are your thoughts about "the zeal of the Lord of Hosts?"
### Passage
- For unto us a child is born,
- unto us a son is given,
- and the government will be upon His shoulders.
- And He will be called
- Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
- Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
- Of the increase of His government and peace
- there will be no end.
- He will reign on the throne of David
- and over his kingdom,
- to establish and sustain it
- with justice and righteousness
- from that time and forevermore.
The zeal of the LORD of Hosts will accomplish this.
[[Isaiah_09|Isaiah 9.6-7 (BSB)]]
