If you are celebrating Christmas this year it means one thing: either you’re a Christian (believer), or you don’t deny that Jesus is the Christ but yet ready to open your heart to let Him in. Let me refreshing your memory about the true meaning of Christmas: in a cold season like this, about 2017 years ago a promised child that was predicted as a gift to the world many hundreds years before, by prophet Isaiah, was born; his name is Jesus-Christ. He was not conceived by man but by the Holy Spirit for He is the Son of God. The word of God tells us: “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him shall not perish, but has everlasting life” (John 3 v 16). In 1 John 4 v 15, God makes an unbreakable promise to whosoever accepts Jesus-Christ as His Son, saying: “Whosoever shall confess Jesus is the Son of God, God will dwelt in him, and he in God”. Now let me ask: DURING THIS CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION, HOW DO YOU DEFINING JESUS’ PRESENCE IN YOUR LIFE (IF HE IS)?
As for me, I say Jesus is the CHRIST (The Messiah). Jesus is the Son of God; therefore He is God.
The moment I willfully invited this man into my life He took control of every aspect of it. Now, I am a different person – my life has completely changed. As a result, I proclaim that I am the happiest woman on earth. If you want to feel the same, let Jesus dwelt into your heart today with a simple prayer, you can say: Jesus, I know that your father gives you power to redeem everyone, and cast away anyone that denied you as the Son of God; and I also know that no other gods can save my soul. Today, I….willfully surrender my entire self to you. I will stay away from my past so you can control my thoughts and actions according to your desire. Please help me with your Holy Spirit to keep this promise for I’m weak in my flesh. Amen! I did that same prayer and it has been answered. By faith and trust, you can call upon Jesus name at all times; Jesus never failed anyone. For instance:
- In time of needs – He is a father and provider.
- In time of inner war – He is the peace-maker
- In time of sickness – He is an excellent doctor
- In time of loneliness – He is the greatest friend
- In time of emotional struggle – He is my counselor
- When I commit a sin – He reprehended me
- When I repent from my sins – He forgives me
- When I continue to repeat the same mistake over and over – His anger falls upon me.
