“While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloth and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them.” - Luke 2: 6-7
The simplicity of Jesus’ birth circumstances tells us a lot about Him. He didn’t come into this world in a palace, but in a stable. Help us to rid our thoughts from the materialistic world to spiritual thoughts of love.
Father, praise, glory, and hallelujah for the birth of Christ our King! Help us to learn from the humble circumstances Jesus was born unto on earth. The lack of room for Mary and Joseph did not delay His coming to earth to be with us. Immanuel means, “God with us.” You are a God of purpose, intention, and perfect timing. Allow us to discover who you are through the birth of Jesus, we pray, Amen.

“I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord.” - Luke 2:10-11

Father, Our hearts today should be filled with the truth of the angel’s words. Because of Jesus, as believers and Followers of the Way we never have to be apart from the Love of Christ. That joy should resonate from you to others. Thank you, God, for giving us the gift of your Son. Jesus, thank You for taking on all of our sin by way of the cross, thank you for showing us how to rid our hearts and souls of sadness, anger and resentment. Thank you, Lord, for walking the earth so you could understand how we feel, and comfort us the way no one else can. Don’t let the weight of this world and the everyday stress of life cause us to forget it or you. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

“So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David.” - Luke 2:4

Joseph and Mary traveled to Bethlehem for a census decreed by Caesar for the entire Roman Empire, however, their location fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah.
Every part of Christ’s birth story reflects a prophecy fulfilled. The faithfulness of Joseph and Mary is inspiring, and we pray to be obedient as they were. So, do you listen and obey God when He asks you to do something, to move in His direction, to follow the path He has for you? Life doesn’t stop because you choose to ignore God’s will. He not only has a mission for you but for others. God’s will and plan will be completed with or without your faithfulness.

Help us to remember Father, when life is unfair and hard, when we feel that we don’t want to follow you lead, you are still at work in our lives. And nothing can stop the work You have started. AMEN
