Christmas is about who Jesus is, and what He came to do. He
didn’t come to establish a religion. He didn’t come to merely
show us how to do good things; He came to give us life; God’s life. God
made us, and He wanted us to have His kind of life, and His plan was
that Jesus would be the one to give us that life.
He also planned that we would receive that life through faith,
because His kingdom is inapparent to the senses. Hebrews 11:6 says without faith, it’s impossible to please God. The Christmas carol: “Hark!
The Herald Angels Sing” puts it succinctly in its verse: “…Born that man
no more may die; born to raise the sons of earth; born to give them
second birth.” How beautiful!
However, the biggest thing is Christ born in your heart. The Bible says, “Christ in you, the hope of glory” (Colossians 1:27). We’re
talking about the Lord, the One who was raised from the dead and ascended into heaven; the Son of the living God—taking up His abode in the quarters of your heart!
Confession
I have the life and nature of God in my spirit. He gave His life for me, so I could live and walk in His righteousness, glory and grace. Therefore, by my faith, I’m a partaker of God’s divine nature, having been impacted with His life! My life is full of glory, because Christ is in me. Hallelujah!
