The Essential Message of Christmas 

“Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name ‘Immanuel,’ which is translated, ‘God with us.’ ” Matthew 1:23

At this time of the year, we say, “Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays,” and we need to be mindful Christmas isn’t always a merry or happy time for everyone. For some who has lost their job, this is not the most wonderful time of the year, because so much emphasis is placed on a merry Christmas being a materialistic one.

There are also those who have lost loved ones. I am one of those people, and this time of year now come with an ache as songs, and preparations evoke memories of happy times gone before. Therefore, Christmas becomes a difficult time for some. This year unlike any other is very different, separation and isolation, loss and uncertainty seem to be the message being given.

This Christmas we are in need of encouragement, we need to hear a message of Hope and certainty. We don’t need Christmas presents; we need Gods presence. We need to be reminded of what this season is all about. It is not about material things, food drink or presents as nice as they all may be.

In the bible we read in 

“Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name ‘Immanuel,’ which is translated, ‘God with us.’ ”

We need to be reminded now more than ever of the essential message of Christmas, which is Immanuel—God is with us. And for the hurting person, the lonely person, the sorrowing person, the fear filled person, it is time to be reminded of the gift that was given over 2000 years ago.

“The message of Christmas is: God will be with you. God will help you. God will strengthen you.”

God’s Will for you is to receive Jesus into your heart, your life as a gift so that you can receive all He has to give you

Forgiveness

Health

Encouragement

Hope

Wisdom

Peace

Provision

Freedom (Deliverance)

Fresh Infilling of the Holy Spirit

Receive the best present ever this Christmas, receive Christ into your heart and unwrap the gift that keeps on giving.

“The LORD bless you and keep you;

the LORD make His face shine upon you

and be gracious to you;

the LORD turn His face toward you

and give you peace…”

Numbers 6:24-26 

Be strengthened and filled with renewed Hope this Christmas.
