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

Truth isn’t just about knowing the facts, it’s also about what the facts mean. What do we do with the facts? Which are more important than others? Truth is the correct interpretation of the data. When Jesus says He is the truth and that His whole life is pointing us toward that truth (John 18:37), it means He has the greatest authority; He is the greatest referential point to know what is reliable.
The passages today kept emerging the theme that the Kingdom of God usurps all of our structures of authority and power. When Jesus stood before the earthly authorities of His time, whether they were religious, economic or political, His words and the impact of His actions upended ideas about how things were, are, and should be.
The Kingdom of God is about bringing back right relationships throughout creation—restoring the wholeness that our bones yearn for, and this kingdom restoration includes having right knowledge of God. Our healing and wholeness, our integrity, are the result of God.
Each day lately has been a battle for my perception. I have to fight hard some days to remember that there is more to reality than what I see, what I hear, and what I can imagine or conceptualise. We always have to add what we know about God to what we can see of our circumstances. It is a relief to me to remember that God’s Kingdom grows in ways that are beyond our sole efforts and that often begin small—growing in surprisingly unimaginable ways.

“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.
