๐Merry Christmas ๐
Everything about the coming of Jesus brought good tidings to the world.
Right from the time His miraculous conception was announced, everything about the coming of Jesus brought good tidings to the world.
The angel told Mary even before he delivered the message,
โRejoice, highly favoured one, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women!โ (Luke 1:28).
Here, I see four dimensions of good things that should be the experience of everyone as we celebrate His birth.
๐ Joy.
The angel told her to rejoice even when she didn't know what the angel would say.
You also need to rejoice even if you don't know what the future holds.
๐ Favour.
Mary was called the highly favoured one. Favour singled her out many virgins of her generation.
๐ Divine Presence.
Nothing is as precious as the presence of God in a man's life. It is the ultimate.
With God's presence, all other good things of life are guaranteed.
๐ Blessings.
Mary was called blessed among women.
As we celebrate the birth of Yeshua Hamashiach today, may you have courses to rejoice, may you experience a higher dimension of favour.
May the abiding presence of the Lord be your experience and may you be blessed on every side of your life in Jesus name. Amen!
Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year!
