Topic: The Mystery Of The Birth Of Christ [Monday December 25, 2017]
Scripture: …she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS. Matthew 1:25
Thought For The Day: The birth of Jesus bypassed natural order; it suspended the protocol of nature to achieve Kingdom purpose.
Merry Christmas! Christmas is the annual commemoration of the birth of Jesus Christ on the 25th Day of December by followers of Jesus Christ called Christians all over the world.
The Scripture makes it clear in Matthew Chapters 1 and 2 that the birth of our Master, the Saviour of the world was not a normal birth; it bypassed natural orders and protocols.
Let us x-ray some of the mysteries that surrounded the birth of Jesus Christ.
1. The mystery of unnatural conception: This is a conception that happened without the meeting of a man and a woman.
2. The mystery of incarnation: This is not reincarnation but incarnation. It is the mystery of God becoming man.
3. The mystery of surprise for the devil. The devil looked for Jesus to kill when He was in the womb. He did not just fail in his attempt; he also did not know when and where Jesus was born.
4. The birth of Christ was the mystery that changed the order of history and the arrangement of calendar. Everything that happened before Christ was born was termed B.C and everything that happened subsequently was called A.D.
5. The mystery of Jesus’ birth imparted nature and creation. It was the star that recorded His birth.
On this special day, I prophesy to you the impartation of all that the birth of Jesus carries. The end of your strandedness has come, in Jesus’ Name.
Remember This: The birth of Jesus bypassed natural happenings; it suspended the protocol of nature to achieve kingdom purpose.
