Merry Christmas

Good morning and Merry Christmas! May the joy that is Jesus be yours today and always.

"Then the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to you this day in the  city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord." (Luke 2:10-11)

Christmas Prelude

This could be the "Eve" of a promise in Jesus, fulfilled in your life. There was "a day before" Christ our greatest and best gift was born of Mary who found favor with God. 

Likewise, this could be "the day before" you deliver that which the Holy Spirit has conceived in you and has purposed for you to bring forth for the glory of God.

A Christmas Prelude to the Upcoming Christmas Day Devotional on 12/25/18 on A Walk In The Garden

Every Good and Perfect Gift is From Above

A Prayer:

Thank You Abba Father for all that's good and perfect comes from You. Help us to reflect your glory in all we say and do. In Your holy name, we pray. Amen.

Jesus is Messiah

His Kingdom is everlasting and His love knows no bounds. He is a righteous, faithful King; Savior of all humanity.

{Isaiah 61:1-3}

"The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me, because the Lord has anointed Me to preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound; to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn, to console those who mourn in Zion, to give them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified."

{John 4:25 & 26}

The woman said to Him, "I know that Messiah is coming" (who is called Christ). "When He comes, He will tell us all things." Jesus said to her, "I who speak to you am He."

A Prayer:

Thank You Heavenly Father for giving the world your Son Jesus Christ—for His birth, death and resurrection. Thank You Lord Jesus for Your faithfulness to do the Father's will, and for saving us. Thank You Holy Spirit for working in and through us, to regenerate our spirits and renew our minds, so that we may walk in obedience to the will of God, for we are a new creation. Thank You for Your anointing that empowers us to live godly lives in a sinful world, and to be effective messengers of God's grace. Thank You Lord God for bringing us into Your Kingdom, and Your Kingdom into our hearts. Praise Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen.

Psalm 150: Praise the Lord!

{Psalm 150}
Praise the Lord! Praise God in His sanctuary;
Praise Him in His mighty firmament!
Praise Him for His mighty acts;
Praise Him according to His excellent greatness!
Praise Him with the sound of the trumpet;
Praise Him with the lute and harp!
Praise Him with the timbrel and dance;
Praise Him with stringed instruments and flutes!
Praise Him with loud cymbals;
Praise Him with clashing cymbals!

Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. 

Praise the Lord!

Come and Drink, Live in the Fullness of God's Grace

In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, "If any man thirst, let him come unto Me, and drink. He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water." (John 7:37 & 38)

A Prayer:

Thank You Lord God for the Holy Spirit whom You have given to those who believe in You and the promise of eternal life. In a dry and thirsty land, we need You more and more. We pray that Your Word will run swiftly in all the earth and be glorified. Draw souls by Your power—to come, to drink, to live in the fullness of Your grace. In Your holy name, we pray. Amen.
