We're going to continue 00:00:26.829 --> 00:00:31.960 talking about the amazing miracle of Christ's 00:00:31.960 --> 00:00:36.460 birth. It is the Christmas season and that is 00:00:36.460 --> 00:00:39.679 the reason we celebrate is because of him. Gift 00:00:39.679 --> 00:00:44.380 -giving is a wonderful thing to do every day 00:00:44.380 --> 00:00:48.359 but especially at this time because it was God's 00:00:48.359 --> 00:00:52.780 greatest gift when he gave Jesus for us. So let's 00:00:52.780 --> 00:00:55.780 turn in our Bibles. We're going to go again to 00:00:55.780 --> 00:01:00.409 Luke and we're going to start in verse 26 and 00:01:00.409 --> 00:01:02.789 it says in the sixth month the angel Gabriel 00:01:02.789 --> 00:01:06.629 was sent from God unto a city Galilee named Nazareth 00:01:06.629 --> 00:01:09.750 to a virgin a spouse to a man whose name was 00:01:09.750 --> 00:01:12.969 Joseph of the house of David and the virgin's 00:01:12.969 --> 00:01:16.370 name was Mary the angel came unto her and said 00:01:16.370 --> 00:01:19.930 hail thou art highly favored the Lord is with 00:01:19.930 --> 00:01:24.629 you blessed are you among women we have to stop 00:01:24.629 --> 00:01:28.829 here and this is Mary a 14 year old girl and 00:01:28.829 --> 00:01:33.269 a giant angel appears to her who is Gabriel and 00:01:33.269 --> 00:01:39.569 he gives her this amazing salutation when he 00:01:39.569 --> 00:01:43.390 says you are highly favored blessed are you among 00:01:43.390 --> 00:01:47.469 women I'm sure her mind was like what and then 00:01:47.469 --> 00:01:50.629 it says and when she saw him she was troubled 00:01:50.629 --> 00:01:53.730 you know when she saw this angel her heart was 00:01:53.730 --> 00:01:58.290 nervous and cast in her mind what manner of salutation 00:01:58.290 --> 00:02:02.420 would this be but the angel of the lord said 00:02:02.420 --> 00:02:05.540 to her, fear not, Mary, for you have found favor 00:02:05.540 --> 00:02:09.060 with God. Do you know that you also have found 00:02:09.060 --> 00:02:12.759 favor of God? Not to carry the Son of God as 00:02:12.759 --> 00:02:15.379 our savior, of course. That's already been done 00:02:15.379 --> 00:02:19.240 once and done and done. But you have favor round 00:02:19.240 --> 00:02:22.960 about you like a shield is what our Bible tells 00:02:22.960 --> 00:02:27.139 us. So that same favor that came on Mary, you 00:02:27.139 --> 00:02:30.659 have. You have favor with both God and man when 00:02:30.659 --> 00:02:34.050 you are pleasing to the Lord when you are loving 00:02:34.050 --> 00:02:40.330 him and loving others right and so it's it continues 00:02:40.330 --> 00:02:44.810 in 31 says behold you will conceive in your womb 00:02:44.810 --> 00:02:48.469 and bring forth a son and he shall be named Jesus. 00:02:49.009 --> 00:02:52.590 He shall be great and shall be the son of the 00:02:52.590 --> 00:02:55.729 highest. The Lord God shall give unto him the 00:02:55.729 --> 00:02:59.090 throne of his father David and he will reign 00:02:59.090 --> 00:03:02.590 over the house of Jacob forever and of his kingdom 00:03:02.590 --> 00:03:07.219 there will be no end. Then Mary said unto the 00:03:07.219 --> 00:03:11.000 angel, How can this be, saying, I know no man, 00:03:11.060 --> 00:03:14.020 which means I have not slept with a man? First 00:03:14.020 --> 00:03:17.400 of all, let's talk about how great he's declaring 00:03:17.400 --> 00:03:20.740 God is and that he is the son of the highest 00:03:20.740 --> 00:03:24.319 and that the Lord God will give him the throne 00:03:24.319 --> 00:03:27.599 of King David. Well, he's in the lineage of David. 00:03:28.159 --> 00:03:31.120 and so and how he will rule in his kingdom there 00:03:31.120 --> 00:03:35.979 is no end why heaven and life with Jesus Christ 00:03:35.979 --> 00:03:41.159 is for all eternity glory to God and so here's 00:03:41.159 --> 00:03:43.960 Mary and she's like well how am I supposed to 00:03:43.960 --> 00:03:46.539 get pregnant I've never even been with a man 00:03:46.539 --> 00:03:51.259 but the angel said to her the Holy Ghost shall 00:03:51.259 --> 00:03:54.889 come upon you and the power of the highest will 00:03:54.889 --> 00:03:59.629 overshadow you and therefore also the holy thing 00:03:59.629 --> 00:04:02.449 which will be born of you will be called the 00:04:02.449 --> 00:04:07.789 Son of God. Jesus is the Son of God. Jesus the 00:04:07.789 --> 00:04:10.729 Father and the Holy Spirit, those three are one. 00:04:10.789 --> 00:04:17.490 It's the Trinity. But in verse 37, it declares 00:04:17.490 --> 00:04:21.569 also for with God nothing shall be impossible 00:04:21.569 --> 00:04:26.209 so an immaculate conception a conception without 00:04:26.209 --> 00:04:29.509 male and female on the earth you know by the 00:04:29.509 --> 00:04:33.129 power of the Holy Ghost overshadowing is a supernatural 00:04:33.129 --> 00:04:37.970 act of God a visitation from an angel is a supernatural 00:04:37.970 --> 00:04:42.189 act of God so Mary had to be just picture her 00:04:42.189 --> 00:04:45.649 just 14 going wow you know what is happening 00:04:45.649 --> 00:04:49.550 now is this a dream you know so it says Mary 00:04:49.550 --> 00:04:51.709 arose and went to the hills of the country with 00:04:51.709 --> 00:04:54.990 haste in the city of Judah and entered the house 00:04:54.990 --> 00:04:59.129 of Zacharias and saluted Elizabeth you know Jesus 00:04:59.129 --> 00:05:03.370 I skipped a little section it talks about he 00:05:03.370 --> 00:05:07.399 also the angel shared that Elizabeth pregnant 00:05:07.399 --> 00:05:13.240 also and it was just a glorious time both for 00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:16.319 her for Elizabeth and so she runs to Elizabeth's 00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:18.680 house to have that conversation with Elizabeth 00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:22.540 well as soon as she well let's read it in verse 00:05:22.540 --> 00:05:26.139 43 it says And once this is to me that the mother 00:05:26.139 --> 00:05:29.560 of my Lord should come to me, you know, it came 00:05:29.560 --> 00:05:34.319 to pass when Elizabeth heard Mary's salutation, 00:05:34.660 --> 00:05:37.879 the baby within Elizabeth leaped and was filled 00:05:37.879 --> 00:05:40.699 with the Holy Ghost, which we know later is John 00:05:40.699 --> 00:05:44.420 the Baptist. and she spake with a loud voice 00:05:44.420 --> 00:05:46.620 this is Elizabeth saying blessed are you among 00:05:46.620 --> 00:05:49.459 women and blessed is the fruit of the womb you 00:05:49.459 --> 00:05:51.720 know the angel the lord told her she was blessed 00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:55.639 among among women and then here here elizabeth 00:05:55.639 --> 00:05:59.639 prophetically confirms that word you know anytime 00:05:59.639 --> 00:06:02.199 god speaks something to you whether it's your 00:06:02.199 --> 00:06:05.259 mission or something to do or something to say 00:06:05.259 --> 00:06:08.199 you know something about your life for the future 00:06:08.560 --> 00:06:11.259 God will confirm it either through his word, 00:06:11.279 --> 00:06:14.759 he'll always confirm it and he did with Mary 00:06:14.759 --> 00:06:19.339 as well. And then she continues and says, and 00:06:19.339 --> 00:06:21.439 blessed is she that believes for there shall 00:06:21.439 --> 00:06:24.100 be a performance of those things which were told 00:06:24.100 --> 00:06:28.300 to her from the Lord. And then Mary responds, 00:06:28.519 --> 00:06:32.740 In verse 46, my soul magnifies the Lord and my 00:06:32.740 --> 00:06:37.319 spirit rejoices in God my savior for he has regarded 00:06:37.319 --> 00:06:40.560 the humble state of his handmaiden and behold 00:06:40.560 --> 00:06:43.920 from now on generations will call me blessed. 00:06:44.240 --> 00:06:47.879 She's not saying this out of pride or being braggadocious. 00:06:47.939 --> 00:06:50.860 She's saying this prophetically out of her mouth. 00:06:51.399 --> 00:06:55.120 and then she continues for he is mighty who has 00:06:55.120 --> 00:06:59.519 done this to me great things and holy is his 00:06:59.519 --> 00:07:03.959 name and his mercy is on them that fear him from 00:07:03.959 --> 00:07:08.540 generation to generation and he has put down 00:07:08.540 --> 00:07:11.060 the mighty from their seats and exalted them 00:07:11.060 --> 00:07:14.500 of humble status. He has filled the hungry with 00:07:14.500 --> 00:07:17.839 good things and the rich he has sent away." He's 00:07:17.839 --> 00:07:20.660 talking about people who are prideful. He has 00:07:20.660 --> 00:07:25.019 sent them away. God hates pride, but he loves 00:07:25.019 --> 00:07:28.079 humility. You know, he that exalts himself will 00:07:28.079 --> 00:07:30.360 be put down, the scripture says, and he that 00:07:30.360 --> 00:07:33.560 humbles himself will be lifted up. You know God 00:07:33.560 --> 00:07:36.060 has a plan and a purpose for you the same way 00:07:36.060 --> 00:07:38.980 He had a plan and a purpose for Mary the same 00:07:38.980 --> 00:07:42.600 way He had a plan and a purpose for Jesus they 00:07:42.600 --> 00:07:46.819 God has a plan for you and Maybe you say well 00:07:46.819 --> 00:07:49.399 my life seems empty my life. Well, you just need 00:07:49.399 --> 00:07:52.000 Jesus in your life Maybe you go. Well, I've got 00:07:52.000 --> 00:07:54.839 him as my Savior will start digging in the word 00:07:54.839 --> 00:07:58.420 start praying He will speak to your heart. He 00:07:58.420 --> 00:08:01.500 will come he loves when people seek his face. 00:08:01.500 --> 00:08:05.170 He said if you seek him you will find him if 00:08:05.170 --> 00:08:08.170 you knock the door will be opened if you ask 00:08:08.170 --> 00:08:12.370 you will receive that's a promise but we have 00:08:12.370 --> 00:08:15.230 to get alone with him and get in that time with 00:08:15.230 --> 00:08:18.509 him praise the Lord there's no greater time than 00:08:18.509 --> 00:08:21.629 the time you spend with the Lord Jesus Christ 00:08:21.629 --> 00:08:26.100 why because he is the very life in us. He is 00:08:26.100 --> 00:08:29.319 the life we breathe. We are nothing without him, 00:08:29.319 --> 00:08:31.839 but through him, the Bible says, through Christ, 00:08:32.220 --> 00:08:36.860 we can do all things, all things. Now, Mary and 00:08:36.860 --> 00:08:41.320 being at Elizabeth's house, she stayed with her 00:08:41.320 --> 00:08:44.220 about three months, and then she returned to 00:08:44.220 --> 00:08:47.379 her own house. You know, this was beginning. 00:08:47.559 --> 00:08:51.409 This was the beginning. all that was going to 00:08:51.409 --> 00:08:55.210 happen, and it was such a glorious time, such 00:08:55.210 --> 00:09:00.450 an exciting, wonderful time. She went through 00:09:00.450 --> 00:09:03.429 all the normal things of pregnancy, you know, 00:09:03.429 --> 00:09:06.350 all the feelings. She gave birth to him, and 00:09:06.350 --> 00:09:09.230 we're going to go ahead and we're going to read 00:09:09.230 --> 00:09:12.129 about this, and it's in chapter 2. We're in Luke 00:09:12.129 --> 00:09:15.450 chapter 2, and we're going to start in verse 00:09:15.450 --> 00:09:18.509 4. It says, Joseph went up from Galilee out of 00:09:18.509 --> 00:09:21.190 the city of Nazareth into Judea unto the city 00:09:21.190 --> 00:09:24.450 of David which is called Bethlehem because he 00:09:24.450 --> 00:09:28.250 was of the house of the lineage of David to be 00:09:28.250 --> 00:09:31.970 taxed with Mary that his espoused wife or promised 00:09:31.970 --> 00:09:35.409 wife being great with child. So she was you know 00:09:35.409 --> 00:09:38.909 full term and so it was that while they were 00:09:38.909 --> 00:09:42.070 there the days were accomplished that she should 00:09:42.070 --> 00:09:45.899 give birth. So she was coming to the end of her 00:09:45.899 --> 00:09:48.620 pregnancy to give birth to Jesus but that's not 00:09:48.620 --> 00:09:51.960 why they went there. They went there of course 00:09:51.960 --> 00:09:55.100 it was prophesied they would go she would she 00:09:55.100 --> 00:09:59.080 would have Jesus there but they went there because 00:09:59.080 --> 00:10:02.639 of the taxing and that's we can read about in 00:10:02.700 --> 00:10:05.039 verse one and two but we skipped over that to 00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:09.639 get to the this part and it says, and she brought 00:10:09.639 --> 00:10:12.700 forth verse seven her firstborn son and wrapped 00:10:12.700 --> 00:10:15.539 him in swaddling clothing and laid him in a manger 00:10:15.539 --> 00:10:18.600 because there was no room for them in the inn 00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:21.299 and they were in the same country shepherds abiding 00:10:21.299 --> 00:10:23.419 in the field keeping watch over their flock and 00:10:23.419 --> 00:10:26.139 lo the angel of the lord came upon them upon 00:10:26.139 --> 00:10:29.419 some shepherds out in the in the field watching 00:10:29.419 --> 00:10:32.399 over their flock and the glory of the lord shown 00:10:32.399 --> 00:10:35.759 round about them, and they were so afraid. And 00:10:35.759 --> 00:10:39.899 the angel said unto them, fear not. That's what 00:10:39.899 --> 00:10:42.759 God says to you today about the circumstances 00:10:42.759 --> 00:10:47.519 in your life that may be fearful. Fear not, for 00:10:47.519 --> 00:10:52.389 God is with you. Immanuel means God with us. 00:10:52.769 --> 00:10:55.269 The Bible says he will never leave you, he will 00:10:55.269 --> 00:10:58.470 never forsake you. So we have nothing to fear. 00:10:58.870 --> 00:11:01.710 And so he's telling them, fear not, I bring you 00:11:01.710 --> 00:11:06.750 good news of great joy, which shall be to all 00:11:06.750 --> 00:11:09.710 people. The good news of Jesus Christ is for 00:11:09.710 --> 00:11:14.090 everyone, not for a select few, not for those 00:11:14.090 --> 00:11:16.389 who you think don't do anything wrong, which 00:11:16.389 --> 00:11:19.129 by the way, the Bible says all have and short 00:11:19.129 --> 00:11:21.750 of the glory of God. You know, the Bible also 00:11:21.750 --> 00:11:24.710 encourages us not to compare ourselves one with 00:11:24.710 --> 00:11:28.450 another. We are all uniquely individually made. 00:11:28.549 --> 00:11:31.950 We all have our own fingerprint. None of us look 00:11:31.950 --> 00:11:35.549 identical to the point of every cell in our body, 00:11:35.750 --> 00:11:39.690 but God knows us. He called us by name. He knew 00:11:39.690 --> 00:11:42.389 you and me before we were in our mother's womb. 00:11:43.019 --> 00:11:46.940 and he still brought us forth for purpose. Your 00:11:46.940 --> 00:11:50.179 life counts. You want it to count while you're 00:11:50.179 --> 00:11:52.860 on this side of heaven because when you get to 00:11:52.860 --> 00:11:54.879 the other side, we're gonna be training for another 00:11:54.879 --> 00:11:57.360 assignment. It's not gonna be like here on earth. 00:11:57.600 --> 00:12:00.700 So you wanna get in the word. We want to continually 00:12:00.700 --> 00:12:04.240 feed on the word of God, the truth. He is the 00:12:04.240 --> 00:12:06.899 way, the truth, and the life. That's who Jesus 00:12:06.899 --> 00:12:11.129 is. and so we will continue. He's talking to 00:12:11.129 --> 00:12:13.409 the shepherds and he says, for unto you this 00:12:13.409 --> 00:12:16.110 day in the city of David a savior which is Christ 00:12:16.110 --> 00:12:18.750 the Lord and this shall be a sign to you. You 00:12:18.750 --> 00:12:21.370 shall find him wrapped in swaddling clothes laying 00:12:21.370 --> 00:12:24.840 in a manger and suddenly there was with the angel 00:12:24.840 --> 00:12:28.779 a multitude of heavenly hosts praising God and 00:12:28.779 --> 00:12:32.200 saying so while the angel sharing the good news 00:12:32.200 --> 00:12:35.779 of Jesus Christ has come into the earth a whole 00:12:35.779 --> 00:12:39.500 heavenly host joins him so these shepherds are 00:12:39.500 --> 00:12:43.659 probably blown away out in the field the sky 00:12:43.659 --> 00:12:46.720 is lit up with these angels and they're all saying 00:12:46.720 --> 00:12:49.860 and praising God glory to God in the highest 00:12:49.860 --> 00:12:54.179 and on earth good will towards men This is the 00:12:54.179 --> 00:12:57.139 most fantastic, miraculous thing that could have 00:12:57.139 --> 00:13:00.100 ever happened. Everybody shouting, hallelujah, 00:13:00.279 --> 00:13:03.539 glory to God. And it came to pass as the angels 00:13:03.539 --> 00:13:06.019 were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds 00:13:06.019 --> 00:13:09.179 said to one another, let's go even unto Bethlehem 00:13:09.179 --> 00:13:12.980 and see this thing which the Lord has made known 00:13:12.980 --> 00:13:16.419 unto us. And they came with haste and found Mary 00:13:16.419 --> 00:13:20.480 and Joseph and the babe lying in a manger, exactly 00:13:20.480 --> 00:13:24.539 as was spoken to them. and all that they had 00:13:24.539 --> 00:13:27.340 heard wondered at those things which were told 00:13:27.340 --> 00:13:30.700 them by the shepherds. But Mary kept all these 00:13:30.700 --> 00:13:34.200 things and pondered them deeply in her heart 00:13:34.200 --> 00:13:37.820 and the shepherds returned glorifying and praising 00:13:37.820 --> 00:13:40.879 God for all that they had heard and seen and 00:13:40.879 --> 00:13:44.960 all that was told of them." Wow! Hallelujah! 00:13:45.100 --> 00:13:47.399 And then it says, and when eight days were accomplished 00:13:47.399 --> 00:13:50.700 for the circumcising of the child, his name was 00:13:50.700 --> 00:13:55.100 called Jesus. which was so named for the of the 00:13:55.100 --> 00:13:59.200 angel before he was conceived in the womb. And 00:13:59.200 --> 00:14:02.779 so here again, another prophetic word from the 00:14:02.779 --> 00:14:06.000 angels that supernaturally happened at this time 00:14:06.000 --> 00:14:09.779 when the day after his circumcising and he was 00:14:09.779 --> 00:14:13.720 called Jesus. Hallelujah. God is such a glorious 00:14:13.720 --> 00:14:18.360 God. He loves you and I so very much that he 00:14:18.360 --> 00:14:22.789 would send his only begotten son. that whosoever 00:14:22.789 --> 00:14:25.830 believes on him will not perish but have eternal 00:14:25.830 --> 00:14:31.129 life. So forever we get to spend eternity with 00:14:31.129 --> 00:14:35.129 Jesus if we know him, if we believe on him, if 00:14:35.129 --> 00:14:40.490 we've received him as our Savior. Excuse me. 00:14:41.270 --> 00:14:44.330 So right now, I just want you to, if you're not 00:14:44.330 --> 00:14:47.370 excited already, you should be. Yes, Christmas 00:14:47.370 --> 00:14:49.909 is a great time with friends and family.

Because 00:14:57.850 --> 00:15:00.230 guess what? Our life is but a vapor here and 00:15:00.230 --> 00:15:04.500 it's over. So we need to be excited. about life 00:15:04.500 --> 00:15:09.019 and people and no one's perfect and things happen 00:15:09.019 --> 00:15:13.379 in relationships and anger can happen and strife 00:15:13.379 --> 00:15:16.600 and envy and all those things that we don't want 00:15:16.600 --> 00:15:19.919 to happen let's this year let's lay all that 00:15:19.919 --> 00:15:23.259 down and come together loving one another forgiving 00:15:23.259 --> 00:15:26.580 one another you know the bible says jesus said 00:15:26.580 --> 00:15:30.399 if you forgive others i'll forgive you You know, 00:15:30.399 --> 00:15:33.500 we have to forgive others. It's so important. 00:15:34.259 --> 00:15:37.759 You know, and unforgiveness binds the person 00:15:37.759 --> 00:15:41.179 holding the unforgiveness, not the person. Whether 00:15:41.179 --> 00:15:44.659 they deserved it or not, it's not worth your 00:15:44.659 --> 00:15:49.179 torment. Unforgiveness brings torment. Just let 00:15:49.179 --> 00:15:51.980 it go.
