Philip Britts said: “We have not come like Eastern kings With gifts upon the pommel lying. Our hands are empty, and we came Because we heard a baby crying. We have not come like questing knights With fiery swords and banners flying. We heard a call and hurried here– The call was like a baby crying. But we have come with open hearts From places where the torch is dying. We seek a manger and a cross Because we heard…
Yes, your future is not only bright but a massive one as well! Always eliminate your worries by continuous reflection on the big end ahead of you! Or, what do you do in your moments of discomfort? You can come out vetoed, giving up on your ambitions, or you can come out with a new fire, looking for the fresh opportunities in front of you. When you have such a significant future, the foe won’t present a royal welcome and…
Yes, commending to a Christmas that mirrors your strict convictions is an extraordinary method to spread seasonal happiness and celebrate the real reasons and explanation behind the season. I enjoin you to reflect on these two Christmas Bible verses: “And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins…Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name…
Adam of Dryburgh said: “O child, Creator of all! How humbly you lie in the manger. You who rule powerfully in heaven! There the heaven of heavens cannot contain you; here, however, you are held in the narrowest manger. There, in the beginning of the world, you decorated the earth with green grasses that produced seed, with fruit-bearing trees that produced fruit, you ornamented the heavens with the sun, the moon, and the stars, the sky with winged birds, the…
Yes, one of the principal values of Reconciliation remains God’s giving ability to human in becoming the Righteousness! Listen to the Scriptures, and I quote: “All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation; that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through…
Jesus said: “When you stand praying if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins” (Mark 11:25). What’s more, this pardoning doesn’t rely upon a solicitation from the wrongdoer to be excused. Yes, it is absolution, which is dependent on your relationship with God, not your guilty party. Indeed, it’s forgiveness, which depends on your relationship with God, and not in any way by request from the individual who offended…
Eberhard Arnold said: “The coming of the deliverer among people who groan under their need in loneliness and death must truly be a source of abundant joy. One is born who brings us the greatest thing of all: fellowship with the living God! Here is One who through his life and death brings God to all those who are willing to accept him. Christ’s birth was a prelude to his death. The lowliness of his birth, the immediate persecution by…
The enemy knows who you are! Have you not heard that the enemy wouldn’t have wasted so much time and energy on you if there wasn’t something incredible in front of you? Stop complaining about what you didn’t accomplish; God is still working for you! He’ll make up for what was outrageous. God will surely favour you for those injustices. When the adversary sees you start to make headway, he or she’ll send the bombardment, the tides, the storms. That’s…
“Thanks be to God for his indescribable gift!” – 2 Corinthians 9:15
Christoph Friedrich Blumhardt said: “We are called to prove in our own lives that Christ is born, that God is with us. But we are constantly in danger of going about our business without Christ. We keep to our old ways of life and do not allow God to enter our daily affairs.…We will always have to struggle to make sure that Jesus enters our lives, and that he lives on earth, not only in heaven. This is the fight…
