“And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.” Luke 2:13-14.
What the heavenly host said at the birth of Jesus indicated that His birth was a manifestation of the glory and peace of God among men. Jesus was conceived of a virgin without the involvement of the seed of man and in the fulfillment of prophecy and the plan of God for the redemption of mankind. He came as a seed of the woman to bruise the head of the serpent and bring peace and deliverance to all men. As we celebrate the birth of Jesus, we must worship, praise, and thank God for this season, we must ask God for His peace to prevail on the earth in which we live, and we must share our love with others and be a blessing to them.
“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” Isaiah 9:6
“And
without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the
flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles,
believed on in the world, received up into glory.” 1 Timothy 3:15
More importantly, we must pray that the gospel be preached in all parts of the world and get involved. We can only experience the true reason behind His birth if many accept Him as Lord and Savior. May the peace brought by the Prince of Peace fill your heart, your family, and your nation, in Jesus’ name.
Merry Christmas
Prayer for today: Oh God, as we celebrate the birth of Jesus, let your glory and peace
fill our lives in Jesus’ name..
Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption
from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and
Lord. I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into
my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in
Jesus name.
