From my family to yours, Merry Christmas!
Today, as we gather with our loved ones, let us also gather around the Word of God on this special Christmas Day. Let us reflect on the greatest gift of all: Jesus. The story of His birth in Luke 2:4-7 fills our hearts with hope and wonder.
The eternal Son of God came into this world to bring salvation to His people. Jesus is the fulfillment of more than 300 Old Testament prophecies. Jesus is the One promised to us from the beginning. Immanuel, which means "God with us," was born in Bethlehem, and His kingdom will never end. Jesus is the God-Man: 100% God and 100% man--what a profound Christmas mystery!
The circumstances of Jesus' birth teach us many inspiring lessons. He was wrapped in swaddling clothes, just as He was wrapped in burial cloths at His death. This symbolism reminds us that Jesus was born with a purpose – to give us the chance to live through His sacrifice.
Laid in a manger, Jesus entered the world among barnyard animals, fitting for the Lamb of God. Although God, He was born in humble surroundings to redeem us to a glory beyond our imaginations.
And just as there was no room for Him in the inn, today many hearts are too full of worldly concerns to make room for Jesus. But Ephesians 3:17 tells us that Christ wants to make His home in our hearts as we trust in Him. Let us make space for Him in our lives and allow Him to dwell and settle in our hearts.
This Christmas, remember that the best gift of all is Jesus. He was born so that we could be born again, and He became poor so that we could become rich in His grace.
So, I encourage you to give more of yourself to Jesus this year than ever before. If you have not yet received Jesus, I invite you to ask Jesus to save you, forgive you, and come into your life. Dedicate your life to following Him this Christmas and forever more.
If you need assistance or guidance, don't hesitate to reach out to me.
May this be your best Christmas ever as you give the gift of your heart to Jesus, the greatest gift of all. Amen.

🎁Christmas is the time of the year when we give gifts to those we love. 🎄This Christmas, I want you to re-imagine the wonder of Christmas by thinking about all the gifts you have been given because you belong to Jesus. Join us each day as we “unwrap” a special gift that is given to us from above. 🎄✨🎁 Devotional by Dr. Timothy Brown.
