083 New Things #5 — ‘Living Under A New Government’

In today’s episode we stay with Isaiah 9:6 and move beyond “a child is born” and “a Son is given” to the next phrase in the same verse: “and the government shall be upon his shoulder.” Having followed the life of Jesus from birth through His hidden years and into His baptism, we now turn our attention to what this reveals about responsibility and maturity within the new humanity the Father is bringing forth.Using the life of Jesus as our reference point, we see that government rests on a person, not a system, and that responsibility follows growth. What was always true of Him by calling was only lived out publicly when it had been worked into Him through alignment with the Father. This episode brings that pattern into our own lives as sons, helping us see what it means to live under a new government where life no longer begins with self, but with the Father.About AlexAlex is from the UK and he teaches and disciples across nations after years serving in Poland.
