God, Life, Anything.

The "Child" Was God.



" In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. " (John:1:1)

" Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. " (Matthew:1:23)

" He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. " (Matthew 16:15-16)

Glory, Honour, and Adoration be to God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ for His unending love for us all. About 24 hours ago, the whole world celebrated the Born King --the Lord of Lords -- Jesus Christ.

According to the Word, Jesus Christ, the King of Glory, came as a man and was born as a child to just achieve ONE single thing: and that's to redeemed you and I from our carnal ways leading to hell. He did. He actually did achieved His motive. Oh, how much do we owe this awesome God for such a great Mercy...

We owe Him more than just a 24-hour-celebration. We owe Him more than just a month celebration. He "Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross." (Philippians:2:6-8)

Nah, this is more than celebrating a Child. No, we owe much more than that. My Bible made me understand that, "All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made." The Word said, "In him was life; and the life was the light of men." The Born King is before the foundation of the World. Nah, it didn't all started in Bethlehem. God came to us in the flesh, to reconcile us to Himself so that we can be Him in eternity! Bless the Name of the Lord!

Blessed be God for His Loving Kindness. Bless God for His grace. "...not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins." (1 John:4:10) Hence Beloved ones, we owe Him our lives. We ought to give Him our all. Imagine you are born with a billion debt to pay, and One Man just came to pay it all, just like that.We owe Him our allegiance. We owe Him our lives. We owe our praise. We owe Him our worship.

Jesus as done much more than paying every single debt of our sins. The fact that we're born sinners is now obsolete. We are special now, we are born twice; made twice; wonderfully and carefully made. This grace is exuberantly overflowing! Our celebration of Him should just be beyond a mere celebration. It should be of love, praise, hearty thanksgiving and worship. Thanks to Jesus.

"In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you."  (John:14:2) The Born King is gone to prepare a place for us in eternity. He's gone make perfect haven for us. Nah, He's much bigger than a Child: that Child was God.

Amen
