That though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich. 2 Corinthians 8:9

There are over 350 prophesies in the Old Testament that describe the Messiah. Jesus, born with no fanfare or even a crib, fulfilled every single one! The mathematical odds of that are virtually impossible.

And yet, even with that knowledge, the question about Jesus is ultimately a personal one you have to decide on your own. Who do you think the baby Jesus was?

In this message from Jill, she asks you this very question. If you believe the baby Jesus is God, you will live your life with a different perspective and purpose.

I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full." John 10:10

Jesus did not say, Come to me and I'll fill your life full of stuff. He said, I’ll fill it full of Me. I’ll fill it full of God, and then you will have life to the full." And that’s what Christmas is all about. We often forget that as we get busy shopping, baking, decorating, wrapping, and attending parties. In this message, Jill challenges us to keep the focus on Christ and the significance of His birth this Christmas.

How can we get ready for Christ to come this Christmas and not allow Christmas to come without Christ? It's not easy to keep Christ in the spotlight when we are so busy preparing for the happenings of the season. But we can, and must, focus on what He did for us as we celebrate His birth this Christmas.

How are you pouring into those younger than yourself? What kind of legacy are you building to leave for your children? Jill Briscoe takes us to Proverbs 31:1-9 to ponder the words King Lemuel wrote fondly about his mother and the faith she passed along to him.

Whatever age or stage we’re at, God calls us to be a blessing to the next generation. The gifts God has given us never age, and they’re supposed to be used. Jill encourages us to start loving, teaching, and praying for the younger ones coming along. The impact will be not only on the next generation, but for eternity!

Sometimes we think that if we could only get what we want, we would finally be happy. Solomon thought that, too. He had a getting obsession, never denying himself anything he wanted, and he became greater by far than anyone in Jerusalem before [him].

But all these things didn’t bring Solomon the happiness he was looking for. Solomon and you and I are all trying to soothe a heart ache that can’t be cured by things but only by finding our purpose, the reason we were made!

Ever feel like something is missing, like you just don’t belong? You probably feel that way because it is true! God created us for Himself and put eternity in our heartswe were not made for here. So how do we make the most of this life where everything is meaningless, a chasing after the wind (as Solomon wrote in Ecclesiastes) in a world which is not our home?

What is God using to chisel you into the image of Christ? Will you lie still in His hand and let Him do it?

For Jeremiah, God was using his ministry partner, Baruch, to chisel and hammer him into shape. Jeremiah, too, was chiseling Baruch. Without the encouragement of the other, neither would have had faith enough to finish when their ministry got difficult.

In this message, Jill describes how we can learn to work with and celebrate the differences between us and the people in our lives.

Do you ever find yourself running away from God’s plans because you feel inadequate? Jeremiah felt inadequate when God called him to be a prophet. But God spoke a promise to Jeremiah saying, My plan will be in your life, My work will be in your hand, and My words will be in your mouth.

In this message, Jill teaches how to have the kind of faith that believes that God will enable and equip us to do everything He asks of us.

Trying to walk in faith is a day-by-day lesson in leaning on God. It’s figuring out moment-by-moment what a Christian life looks likeand it’s not easy.

Jeremiah had to learn how to have faith like this when he was in the pit, when he was fighting despair and doubt. During this time, God was teaching Jeremiah to put his mind on Him, instead of on the troubles of life.

Jeremiah’s testimony of learning faith morning by morning is a great lesson for us in pursuing faith, even in doubts and trials.
