“But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart. And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.” Luke 2 v19, 20 AKJV

…

Dear Heavenly father, as you have allowed us to see many things in a short time of life, we thank you for the greatest gift of salvation. I thank you for this day. Amen

“And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. 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. And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us go now to Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us. And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger. And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child. And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.” Luke 2 v12 – 18 AKJV

…

Lord, we thank you for this day. Amen

“And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were more afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

For unto you this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.” Luke 2 v8-11 AKJV

Merry Christmas

“And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed. (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.) And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazereth, into Judea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:) To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.

And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.” Luke 2 v1-7 AKJV

…

and around 800 years earlier…

“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.

Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgement and with justice from hence-forth even for ever. The Zeal of the Lord of host will perform this.” Isaiah 9 v6, 7 AKJV

…

And we find ourselves here in 2019, the world and its governments, and their economy does recognize the stopping moment of this significant prophecy then, and the real time birth of Christ then, and his celebration now.

We live and are witness to the times of the importance of calling witnesses to the action that has thought to have been taken place of others-with there own accounts of how it happened.

The witness has stood, and will stand forever of the Christ Jesus to the world. His word is in our hands and the world sees. Can I get a witness?

“He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.” Revelation 3 v5, 6 AKJV

…

Lord, let us not challenge your word in contempt with our own thinking, let us live right and hear what your Spirit is saying to us as part of the professing church-‘the body of Christ’-as it is said. Amen

December 23

“Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. For if we live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.” Romans 8 V12-14 AKJV

…

To live is to know God. The Spirit of Christ Jesus lives, guides, comforts, strengthens, and all other things needed to those who will follow him-by faith.

Lord, help me to seek you this day, and every day. Amen

December 22

“There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.” Romans 8 v1, 2 AKJV

…

With this, is there entitlement to live as we would to fulfil the desires of our earthly life without caution or consequence? Is not the ‘law of the Spirit’ more prevailing than law of sin and death? It is. Shall we turn off the parts we do not want to hear rather than seek what is right in the eyes of God.

Lord, forgive us, forgive me where I fail. Strengthen me in being an overcomer of my own thoughts in how they relate to the fix I see needed in this life on a daily basis and replace them with thoughts of your ways-even now forgive my doubt in the ability of me to do so. Let not the past control where I am headed today. Amen

December 21

“Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.” Romans 8 v12 AKJV

…

To live without is to be drawn to satisfy all the desires this world offers, to live within is to seek God’s way of life.

December 20

“Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.” Revelation 1 v3 AKJV

…

Lord, let us hear you words-let us confess our sins to you, let us accept by faith your forgiveness, let us see things for what they really are, in your name, the name of Jesus Christ-we ask. Amen

December 19

“Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:

I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.” Revelation 3 v17, 18

…

Lord, this day again we start-looking to do what it is that we do. Let our eyes see by your Spirit the worthiness of where we are in this life-leading to the life of eternity. Help us to rise above what is the weightiness of this world as it stokes the fires that make us better in this journey.
