Just as Israel needed to, so do we need to see God in Jesus Christ as our supreme pleasure. May God grant us a deep hunger for Him and His Word that we may truly behold Jesus Christ as our supreme pleasure.

As we enter 2020, I am thankful for the last year and decade. Now the question before all of us as we enter this new year and decade is how will we run for Jesus?

Paul pictures Jesus’ first advent in Galatians 4.4-7, as a rescue mission to set us free from slavery and to place us in God’s forever family. I love how the writer of Living the Christian Year puts it in light of Paul’s writing in Galatians 4 saying, Christ became the child of a woman that we might become children of the Spirit. He identifies with us so that we can identify with Him

The Star of heaven and earth which is Jesus. That is who the magi came seeking and eventually finding and worshiping. As we look at this wonderful text in Matthew 2, may God draw us to Himself and stir in us what was stirred up in the Magi.

The majesty of Christmas is found in the prophetic wonder revealed to Isaiah

This Advent, may wonder fill our hearts at the comings of Jesus. Today, we see the prophetic wonder of Micah who looked forward to the coming King who would bring forever peace to God's people as He cares and leads them. As we look back at the coming of Christ and expectantly look forward like Micah did, this season calls us to examine our own lives and to be spiritually ready. Let our wonder turn to worship as we celebrate and enjoy the greatness of our Savior together.

Our passage today says we have freedom to exercise our Christian privileges but there is a vital principle to follow first.

God wants us to be faithful right where we are at. We are to serve the Lord right where He has us and seek to please Him.
