JERUSALEM

The Lord shall save and give victory to the

tents of Judah first, that the glory of the

house of David and the glory of the inhabitants

of Jerusalem may not be magnified and exalted

above Judah.

(Zechariah 12.7).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

RECOGNIZE

David did not ascend into the heavens; yet he himself says,

The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at My right hand and share My

throne

Until I make Your enemies  footstool for Your feet.

Therefore let the whole house of Israel recognize beyond

all doubt and acknowledge assuredly that God has made

Him both Lord and Christ the Messiah this Jesus Whom

you crucified.

Now when they heard this they were cut to the heart, and

they said, Brothers and sisters, what shall we do?

And Peter answered them, Repent (change your views and

purpose to accept the will of God in your inner selves instead

of rejecting it) and be … Continue Reading

REMEMBER

Remember that Jesus Christ, of the seed of David

was raised from the dead according to my gospel,

For which I suffer trouble as an evildoer, even to

the point of chains; but the word of God is not chained.

Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect,

that they also may obtain the salvation which is in

Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

(II. Timothy 2.8-10).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

BLESSEDNESS

David says the same thing when he speaks of the

blessedness of the man to whom God credits

righteousness  apart from works:

“Blessed are they whose transgressions

are forgiven,

whose sins are covered.

Blessed is the man whose sin

the Lord will never count against him.”

(Romans 4.6-8).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

GOOD NEWS OF GREAT JOY

In those days Caesar Augustus issued

a decree that a census

should be taken of the entire Roman world.

 (This was the first census that took place while

Quirinius was governor of Syria.)

And everyone went to his own town to register.

So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth

in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David,

because he belonged to the house and line of David.

He went there to register with Mary,

who was pledged to be married to him and

was expecting a child.

While they were there, the time came for

the baby to be born, she

gave birth to her firstborn, a son.

She wrapped … Continue Reading

THE BIRTH OF JESUS FORETOLD

In the sixth month, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a

town in Galilee, to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named

Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. The

angel went to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored!

The Lord is with you.”

Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of

greeting this might be. But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid,

Mary, you have found favor with God. You will be with child and

give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus. He … Continue Reading
