Jesus, The Son of the Most High God, should have been born in a palace, wouldn't you think? So then, why wasn't He? Have you ever asked yourself that question? Could it be that it was because Gad was demonstrating His willingness to be identified with the outcast, the imperfect and the impoverished? God was willing to sit down in the middle of the messiness of humanity. Jesus was born in a stable. It was there that Majesty entered the mess of mankind, for the purpose of becoming THE solution. The shepherds needed instructions as to where to find Him. They never would have imagined that He would be found in a stable. God came to the unclean, where it was unclean. Your messy circumstances or dysfunctional life will never disqualify you from having a relationship with The Sovereign Lord. Open your arms and let Him have access to you. Jesus is as close as the mention of His name. He can handle your mess. He came to help you clean it up.
