GOOD TIDINGS OF GREAT JOY

TEXT: Luke 2:10

 *“And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.”* 

Today may not be the exact date of the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ, but one thing is certain: He was born on a day like this into our world.

His coming marked a turning point in human history. Heaven broke the silence, and the earth received a message of hope.

The angel’s announcement to the shepherds was not one of judgment or fear, but of good tidings and great joy. This joy was not reserved for kings, priests, or the wealthy alone, it was declared for all people. From the lowly shepherds in the field to every generation after them.

The message remains the same: a Saviour has been born!
The joy Christ brings is deeper than seasonal excitement or material celebration. It is the joy of salvation, forgiveness, restoration, and eternal life. Even in uncertain times, troubled economies, personal losses, or unanswered questions, this joy remains unshaken because it is rooted in God’s faithfulness.

As we reflect on the birth of Jesus, we are reminded to respond as the shepherds did, with humility, obedience, worship, and a willingness to share the good news. 

Christmas is not only a celebration; it is a call to live out the message of Christ in love, peace, and gratitude.

May this season remind you that fear has no place where Christ reigns, and joy is always available to those who believe.

 *WISHING YOU A JOY-FILLED CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION.* 

 *BIBLE READING:* 

Luke 2:8–20.

 *PRAYER FOCUS:* 

Father, thank You for the gift of Your Son. Help me to trust Your faithfulness, walk in humility, and stand firm in Your promises. Let the joy of Christ rule my heart, regardless of circumstances in Jesus name.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness,  and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life.  When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

TIME IN ETERNITY

Text : Psalms 90:12  So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom._  Our God dwells in eternity past, present and future. In between these phases of eternity, He created man to dwell in Time. When man sinned, he fell short of God's plan, and death came in.(Rom 3:23). Death therefore short circuit man's life in eternity. This is the reason Jesus.came.  He had to come into TIME in order to remove the PAUSE  death HAD on man.  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16.  Every man born into this world automatically becomes an eternal being. The question therefore is, which side of eternity would such a man dwell? Everlasting life or Everlasting condemnation? Time is an opportunity given to man to trade for eternal life. You have limited time to exchange for eternal life in eternity.  Time offers you the opportunity to ga...
