Matthew 1:24-25 (NKJV) 24 Then Joseph, being aroused from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord commanded him and took to him his wife, 25 and did not know her till she had brought forth her firstborn Son. And he called His name Jesus.
Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came into this world through a virgin.
The miraculous work that was done by our God, as part of His plan to save the world, is beyond our understanding. We don’t just instinctively know this stuff. Mankind has never seen such a thing done. It is mind boggling.
But this is our Father in Heaven, and He can do all things.
His words spoke everything that we look at and listen to each day into existence. The sea, the trees, the sky, the wind, the rain, the air and all the sounds of wildlife. He is amazing! Beautiful and Awesome is He.
Think about this; His Son, Jesus, God in the flesh, came to us through a virgin. That’s right. God in natural skin, like you and I. He walked here on this earth, feeling what we feel, being tempted just like us. He went through it all. He knows about temptation and what we deal with every day.
Matthew 1:23 (NKJV) 23 “Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel,” which is translated, “God with us.”
The difference is that He was perfect, even in human form, and He overcame it. We need Him to help us overcome ours.
John 16:33 (NKJV) 33 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”
Today, if you are struggling, if you are hurting, if you are depressed, if you are addicted, if you are lost, Emmanuel is here. Jesus Christ is God, with us.
Receive Him. He is the answer to life. Walk with Him, through prayer and learning His word each day. He will bless us with abundant life!
John 10:10 (NKJV) 10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.
