Tag: What the Bible says about the birth of Jesus

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-8-22

Luke 2:11 (NKJV) 11 For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.

As we recently approached Christmas, I began to wonder what it might have been like if this had happened in our day. Our Savior being born, living in our midst.

Can we even imagine if He walked past our house?

Husband: “Who is that walking down the street?”

Wife: “Oh, that’s Jesus! He’s running an errand for his Dad, Joseph.”

I would want to follow Him and watch His every move. I would want to be His best friend! I would want to hear Him speak and listen to what He would have to say.

And that is exactly what He wants for us, even in this day and age.

He is alive and with us daily. Just not in that way.

He wants us to follow Him by reading His word. And He wants to be a very close friend to us; One we can trust with everything.

We may not be able to walk down the street with Him physically, but in our hearts. He goes everywhere we go.

Proverbs 18:24 (NKJV) 24 A man who has friends must himself be friendly, But there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

He is our friend, and He sticks closer than a brother. He is born to us, our Savior, who is Christ our Lord.

Bible Verse of The Day – 12-25-19

Luke 2:11 (NKJV) 11 For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.

Sometimes I ponder on this verse and what actually happened that night, so very long ago.

The depth of it is mind-boggling. But it is a reality nonetheless.

And that reality stares us in the face each and every day; that God came to earth in the form of a man, and walked among us, ultimately dying in our place to atone for our sins. Your sins, and my sins.

Sometimes I get frustrated with the way this event gets celebrated. It has been exploited by manufacturers and retailers to a great degree because they all know that people give gifts to celebrate this event, even if they don’t necessarily follow Christ.

But I try to overlook the blatant commercialism and, instead, look at the massive gift that was given on that holy night.

It is a gift that has eternal ramifications. It is a gift that radically changes lives. It is a gift that has the power to break the back of sin in our lives. And it is a gift that removes the sting of death in the lives of believers.

Many people like to say that we give gifts because the three men who had traveled from afar gave Jesus gifts that night. And that is true. They did give Jesus some incredibly valuable gifts. He was, after all, their newborn King.

But I prefer to look at the gift that was offered to each and every one of us, in the form of a child, a baby who came to offer Himself, that we might have the opportunity to know God one-on-one here on earth, and then spend eternity with Him when our time here is through.

Enjoy your day today, and remember the true reason for the celebration.

We love you all.

Sincerely,

Our newest video, The Perfect Plan, is now live and ready for you to watch.

Bible Verse of The Day – 12-25-18

Luke 2:11 (NKJV) 11 For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. 

Today, December 25, we celebrate the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. 

While this date is more than likely not the actual birth date of Jesus, it is the day that has been set aside to commemorate His birth and celebrate the day that the Light of the world stepped down out of heaven and took up residence here with us in an earth suit… a human body. 

Immanuel, God with us. 

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.” 

It’s important that we understand the significance of that phrase, “God with us”. For it seems that most times it is very overlooked. 

Many might simply say it means God is with us. But in reality, it more accurately means God, with us. 

To say that God is with us is a more ambiguous statement that means God is with us in a general sense. 

But to fully understand this, we will know that those three words point directly to Jesus and state boldly, “This is Jesus, God with us”. 

And this is why we celebrate! 

God chose to come to earth and dwell among us in the person of Jesus Christ, not acting as a King to be served, but to be made a little lower than the angels and become a servant to all. 

Hebrews 2:9 (NKJV) 9 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, for the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that He, by the grace of God, might taste death for everyone. 

So, join us today in celebrating the birth of our Savior and King, Jesus Christ, Lord of all. God, with us. 

Amen!

Bible Verse of The Day – 12-12-14

Isaiah 7:14 (NKJV) 14 Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His name Immanuel…

I will always be in awe over this truth…the birth of our Savior!

This verse tells us what our sign is, that the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son and shall call His name Immanuel. This is a miracle! His name was called, Immanuel, God with us!!

The sign was given to each one of us. He gave us the freedom to believe in His Son, Jesus Christ, born of a virgin.

God walked among us through His Son Jesus Christ. He grew, He walked, He talked, He ate, He prayed, He healed, He delivered, etc. And this Son was the only One that could sacrifice His life for our sins.

There is nothing but the blood of Jesus Christ that washes all our sins away.

This is an amazing thing that God did for us through His Son, that we would believe in Him and put our faith in Him as our Lord and Savior.

If you believe in God’s Son, Jesus Christ, and you want eternal life and to have a relationship with Him while here on earth, take time today and pray this prayer, below, with all sincerity. Your life will never be the same again, as you put your faith and trust in Him.

Dear God in Heaven,

I come to You today with a humble heart and ask You Lord to forgive me of my sins. I ask you to come into my heart, to live with me and help me each day.

Let Your Holy Spirit guide me to make the right decisions and follow You in all that I do. I ask this in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

If you prayed this prayer you are now a child of the most high God. Jesus Christ has saved you, and He lives in you today. The Holy Spirit is with you, and will guide you if you let Him.

Praise be to God. You have just receive the best gift you will ever receive in your lifetime! Please feel free to contact us and let us know, we want to rejoice and be praying for you.

Love in Christ,
