GOD IS THE GIFT that continuously gives—bounteously, with no strings attached. – 1 JOHN 4 : 15 – 18, DEUTERONOMY 33 : 27, PSALM 13 : 5

“GOD IS THE GIFT that continuously gives—bounteously, with no strings attached. Unconditional Love is such a radical concept that even GOD’S most devoted followers fail to grasp it fully. Absolutely nothing in heaven or on earth can cause GOD to stop loving you. You may feel more loved when you are performing according to your expectations. But GOD’S Love for you is perfect; therefore it is not subject to variation. What does vary is your awareness of The LORD’S loving Presence. When you are dissatisfied with your behavior, you tend to feel unworthy of GOD’S Love. You may unconsciously punish yourself by withdrawing from The LORD and attributing the distance between us to HIS displeasure. Instead of returning to The LORD and receiving HIS Love, you attempt to earn GOD’S approval by trying harder. All the while, GOD is aching to hold you in HIS everlasting arms, to enfold you in HIS Love. When you are feeling unworthy or unloved, come to GOD. Then ask for receptivity to The LORD’S unfailing Love.”

Scripture

If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in him and he in God. And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him. In this way, love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment, because in this world we are like him. There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. 1 JOHN 4 : 15 – 18

The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms. He will drive out your enemy before you, saying, “Destroy him!” DEUTERONOMY 33 : 27

But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation. PSALM 13 : 5

Prayer

Prayer: God I trust you. You know the number of hairs on my head. You knit me together in my mother’s womb. Thank you for loving me unconditionally, regardless. Teach me to love like you love. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Luke‬ ‭2‬:‭11‬

The Savior—yes, the Messiah, the Lord—has been born today in Bethlehem, the city of David! Luke‬ ‭2‬:‭11‬ NLT

Today is not only a day of presents and time with family but most important it’s about celebrating the birth of our Lord and Savior. Today’s prayer is that we all have a day of peace and joy with our loved ones and reflect on the true meaning of why we celebrate Christmas….. Merry Christmas to all and Be Blessed

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new 2 Corinthians 5:17

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

https://youtu.be/arzBjQtcYWI

“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.

Matthew‬ ‭2‬:‭10 -11‬

When they saw the star, they were filled with joy! They entered the house and saw the child with his mother, Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasure chests and gave him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. ‭Matthew‬ ‭2‬:‭10 -11‬

From his first hours Jesus was receiving gifts, the greatest gift we can give him is our worship, give him ourselves completely. Today I pray on the eve of our savior’s birth that we give him our complete worship and thank him for all he has done in our lives…….Be Blessed

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new 2 Corinthians 5:17

1 John‬ ‭4:7-8‬

“Dear friends, let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is a child of God and knows God. But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love.” ‭‭1 John‬ ‭4:7-8‬ ‭NLT‬‬

I believe love is one of the most misunderstood words in the English language!!! Love is known by your actions, by your demeanor, by how people view you. God is love and love for a Christian has to be the same love that Jesus showed to Everyone!!!! Not who you choose. Today’s prayer is that we would love all!!! Yes all whether or not they have wronged you or righted you Love is God…….Be Blessed

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new 2 Corinthians 5:17

Colossians‬ ‭1:13-14

“For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.” ‭‭Colossians‬ ‭1:13-14‬ ‭NASB‬‬

Remember when you didn’t belong to Jesus? Your life had a very trivial meaning. The life you lived in sin was destined for an eternity of doom!! But now you have a life of eternity in heaven. Today’s prayer is that we would always give thanks to God for the precious gift that he has given us…….Be Blessed

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new 2 Corinthians 5:17

COME TO THE LORD, and rest in HIS Presence. – LUKE 1 : 35, JOHN 1 : 14, MATTHEW 2 : 9 – 11

https://youtu.be/qzMwLdU5FEM

“COME TO THE LORD, and rest in HIS Presence. As you ponder the majestic mystery of the Incarnation, relax in The LORD’S everlasting arms. The LORD, JESUS CHRIST is the only Person who was ever sired by the Holy Spirit. This is beyond your understanding. Instead of trying to comprehend JESUS CHRIST’S Incarnation intellectually, learn from the example of the wise men. They followed the leading of a spectacular star, then fell down in humble worship when they found The LORD, JESUS. Praise and worship are the best responses to the wonder of The LORD’S Being. Sing praises to HIS holy Name. Gaze at The LORD in silent adoration. Look for a star of guidance in your own life, and be willing to follow wherever HE leads. JESUS CHRIST is the Light from on high that dawns upon you, to guide your feet into the way of Peace.”

Scripture

The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God.” LUKE 1 : 35

The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. JOHN 1 : 14

When they heard the king, they departed; and behold, the star which they had seen in the East went before them, till it came and stood over where the young Child was. When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy. And when they had come into the house, they saw the young Child with Mary His mother, and fell down and worshiped Him. And when they had opened their treasures, they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh. MATTHEW 2 : 9 – 11 (NKJV)

Prayer

Prayer: Lord, I come to you and rest in your presence. Open my eyes to see your star of guidance in my life and help me to have the courage to follow wherever you lead. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

‭‭Joel‬ ‭2:21‬

“Don’t be afraid, O land. Be glad now and rejoice, for the Lord has done great things.” ‭‭Joel‬ ‭2:21‬ ‭NLT‬‬

The condition of the world makes us think there is no hope! But in reality there is nothing but hope, God has done a great work in the land and in us. Today’s prayer is that no matter how bad it looks remember God has blessed us with all that we need and our great hope is in Jesus…….Be Blessed

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new 2 Corinthians 5:17

COME TO GOD with your gaping emptiness, knowing that in GOD you are complete. – 2 CORINTHIANS 4 : 6, MATTHEW 5 : 3,6, COLOSSIANS 2 : 9 – 10, PSALM 150 : 6

https://youtu.be/phIl29MqzKA

“COME TO GOD with your gaping emptiness, knowing that in GOD you are complete. As you rest quietly in The LORD’S Presence, HIS Light within you grows brighter and brighter. Facing the emptiness inside you is simply the prelude to being filled with GOD’S fullness. Therefore, rejoice on those days when you drag yourself out of bed, feeling sluggish and inadequate. Tell yourself that this is a perfect day to depend on GOD in childlike trust. If you persevere in this dependence as you go through the day, you will discover at bedtime that Joy and Peace have become your companions. You may not realize at what point they joined you on your journey, but you will feel the beneficial effects of their presence. The perfect end to such a day is a doxology of gratitude. GOD is He from whom all blessings flow!”

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

“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. . . . Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.” MATTHEW 5 : 3,6

For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, and you have been given fullness in Christ, who is the head over every power and authority. COLOSSIANS 2 : 9 – 10

Let everything that has breath praise the LORD. Praise the LORD. PSALM 150 : 6

Prayer

Prayer: In you Lord I am complete. Help me to depend on you with childlike trust and allow your joy and peace to become my companions no matter what is going on around me. From you all blessings flow. Help me to do my part and follow you with all my heart. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

1 Corinthians‬ ‭2:2

“For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified.” 1 Corinthians‬ ‭2:2‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Do you take credit for all you accomplish? I believe that we play a certain role in our achievements but Jesus is the reason we are able to have anything. The biggest and only achievement we as Christians should boast about is Christ and Christ alone. Today’s prayer is that we would acknowledge God in all we do and in all we achieve…….Be Blessed

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new 2 Corinthians 5:17
