Horizon Church Christmas Advent Bible Reading Plan: The Joy of Every Longing Heart

DAY 16 OF 31

Advent is a season to intentionally slow our pace, contemplating and celebrating the first coming of Christ while also anticipating His promised return. Take time today to pause from the busyness of the season to catch up on your reading, make space for prayer, and rest in the presence of the Lord.

"On that day it will be said,

'Look, this is our God;

we have waited for Him, and He has saved us.

This is the LORD; we have waited for Him.

Let’s rejoice and be glad in His salvation.'"

—Isaiah 25:9

Horizon Church Christmas Advent Bible Reading Plan: The Joy of Every Longing Heart

“Come, Thou long-expected Jesus, born to set Thy people free.” These words from a beloved hymn capture the heart of Advent: longing, waiting, expectation. Scripture builds our anticipation of our Saviour, God Himself who would dwell among His people and set them free from sin and death. Celebrate Jesus’ first coming as the baby born in Bethlehem and anticipate His second as the glorious King over all.
