AS YOU WAIT attentively in The LORD’S Presence, the Light of the knowledge of GOD’S Glory shines upon you. – 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 6, PHILIPPIANS 2 : 6 – 7, LUKE 2 : 13 – 14, 2 CORINTHIANS 8 : 9

“AS YOU WAIT attentively in The LORD’S Presence, the Light of the knowledge of GOD’S Glory shines upon you. This radiant knowledge transcends all understanding. It transforms every fiber of your being: renewing your mind, cleansing your heart, invigorating your body. Open yourself fully to GOD’S Presence; be awed by HIS glorious Being. Try to imagine what JESUS CHRIST gave up when The LORD came to earth as a baby. The LORD set aside HIS Glory, so that HE could identify with mankind. JESUS CHRIST, The LORD accepted the limitations of infancy under the most appalling conditions—a filthy stable. Angels lit up the sky proclaiming “Glory!” to awe-struck shepherds. As you identify with The LORD, heaven’s vistas open up before you—granting you glimpses of GOD’S Glory. JESUS CHRIST became poor so that you might become rich. Sing hallelujahs to GOD’S holy Name!”

Scripture

For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ. 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 6

Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. PHILIPPIANS 2 : 6 – 7

Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests.” LUKE 2 : 13 – 14

For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich. 2 CORINTHIANS 8 : 9

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, provide healing, peace, and joy in knowing you are the reason for celebrating today. And oh what a great reason it is indeed. Thank you Jesus for your incredible sacrifice to leave Heaven, coming to earth to live a sinless life and be the perfect sacrifice to provide the way back to God for eternity. Amen.
