The Gift

“For to us a Child shall be born, to us a Son shall be given; And the government shall be upon His shoulder, And His name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. There shall be no end to the increase of His government and of peace, [He shall rule] on the throne of David and over his kingdom, To establish it and to uphold it with justice and righteousness From that time forward and forevermore. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will accomplish this.”

-- Isaiah 9:6-7 AMP

This Christmas 2023 we continue to unwrap the Gift  that has no comparison. The Gift that should satisfy our hearts, our deepest human longings and the most beautiful of all expression! The Gift that is so priceless, that any lack or loss we feel in this world is swallowed up in the joy of possessing the “pearl of greatest price!” A Gift for all ages and all people!

Jesus!

Complete eternal confidence YOU bring in troubled times! YOU are coming to rule from David’s throne!

May our praises enthrone YOU and establish YOUR Kingdom in our everyday lifestyle and decisions!

Even when it costs, we choose YOU!

Yes, so while the outward feels a little more crushed in this season, within us we feel the increase of YOUR government, YOUR peace, YOUR rule! Let God arise! Let YOUR enemies be crushed!

YOU are a wonderful counsellor in a world of chaos and chatter!

We choose to spend time this Christmas seeking YOUR still small VOICE, YOUR LEADING, for we know with that will come INCREASE!

I seek YOU FIRST!

YOU are the God of Strength, the God of Power, God our Hero, and God our Warrior! 

As I exalt YOU with the highest praise and as I put YOUR word in my mouth, YOU supernaturally clear the way on the Highway to Zion both for YOUR purpose and for my purpose in you!

YOU are our Father for eternity, what stability, what permanence, what hope! Father of time and eternity, the “architect of the ages”! My Hope is anchored in YOU. I must decrease, YOU must increase!

You are our Prince of Peace (Hebrew: Shar Shalom), which means “the one who removes all peace-disturbing factors and secures the peace.” Who has that promise outside of YOUR Kingdom? No one!

So this Christmas, the eyes of my heart are locked onto YOU Jesus, and I want nothing outside of YOU! Help me in these extreme times to be anchored in the HOPE that one day I will stand before YOU, worship YOU, as you come to rule from David’s Throne. I am so excited to see YOU!

His Church Family, this Christmas let’s choose the GREATEST GIFT and all other things necessary will be added to our lives as we journey together through the darkest of times! So glad to be journeying with you, it is absolute best!

Let’s choose to BUILD with KINGDOM building blocks that are incorruptible!

Joyful Christmas to you and your families!
