Celebrate Jesus' Birth on this Christmas Day

Matthew 1:21 "And she shall bring forth a Son and thou shall call his name Jesus, for he shall save his people from their sins."

In the midst of the shopping, the gifts, the gadgets, and the games, Jesus Christ is still the reason for the season.

December 25th is the day that we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ.

We celebrate his coming because it has been told that a Savior would come and would bring peace on earth and goodwill to all men.

We celebrate his presence today because he has blessed us with so many wonderful gifts such as eternal life and his precious Holy Spirit.

We celebrate his name because there is no other name under heaven given to men that we may be saved but at the name of Jesus.

We celebrate his love because we see the love of the Father through Jesus bringing us back to him from a lifestyle of sin to peace with God.

Whatever we do this Christmas Season, let us celebrate Jesus for he is the reason for the season.

Celebrate Jesus' birth on this Christmas Day.

Joy For Mourning

Isaiah 61:3 "To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he might be glorified."

Tis the season to be Joyful.

As we approach this christmas season this year. Let us remember to spread joy in this season to those who are mourning.

When many are preparing for christmas dinners and family gatherings, there are those who are sad and alone and depressed because they have lost loved ones, are locked away in prisons, or are serving in the military and cannot be with their families.

They need our love, prayers, and support this Christmas.

Jesus came so that we can have the oil of joy for mourning. He came so that we can have the joy of the lord, which is our strength. Strength to face any situation knowing that Jesus is a present help to all that put their trust in him.

The oil of joy in us today is the Holy Spirit in our lives. We as believers have a joy and a peace that the world did not give not can the world take away.

So this Christmas season, reach out to help someone other than yourself and give the love of Jesus away to those who are mourning. Their mourning can be over when we spread joy and show the love of Jesus.

Give Joy this Christmas!

Erase their mourning and spread the Joy of the Lord.

It Is Time To Bless The Lord

Psalm 34:1 "I will bless the Lord at all times, his praise shall continually be in my mouth."

It is time that we begin to bless the Lord for who he is and for what he has done.

It is time that we begin to declare praises from our lips to God.

No longer will we allow an opportunity to slip from us without letting someone know how good God has been to us.

No longer will we remain silent about what the Lord has done for us in this hour.

No longer will we boast about the things that we possess but we will boast about his mighty power that saved us from sin.

Saints of God, let us begin to bless the Lord at all times.

We are the light of the world and the salt of the earth.

It is time to bless the Lord.

This is your higher calling....."Live Higher."

I Will Be With You.

Isaiah 43:2 "When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee."

In times of hardships and difficulties we can be certain of one thing: the presence of the Lord will be with us.

It is a comfort and a joy to know that when we are going through hell and high water, our God promises to be with us. He will cover us and preserve us.

His word is a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our paths.

Be encouraged today and know that whatever the obstacle or situation that you are facing, God's eternal presence will be with you.

This is your higher calling......"Live Higher!"
