LET CHRISTMAS COME ALIVE IN YOU ;
(Christmas Is The Season To Show The Word Alive In You);
? Pastor Chris Oyakhilome;
? TO THE BIBLE
John 1:14 AMP C “And the Word (Christ) became flesh (human, incarnate) and tabernacled (fixed His tent of flesh, lived awhile) among us; and we [actually] saw His glory (His honor, His majesty), such glory as an only begotten son receives from his father, full of grace (favor, lovingkindness) and truth.”
◀ LET’S TALK
How awesome this is! Jesus, the Word, the ancient of days, became flesh and came to live among us; that’s Christmas! I can imagine how awe-struck the people were to see Jesus walk the streets in Bible days, full of grace and truth! The Bible says the disciples saw His glory; He was resplendent in honour and majesty. The Word, which was, in the beginning of the ages now lives, not just with us but also in us. The Bible says, “Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us” (Matthew 1:23).
He was born “Emmanuel,” but today, He’s the Word alive in us: “The mystery that has been kept hidden for ages and generations, but is now disclosed to the Lord’s people…which is Christ in you, the hope of glory” (Colossians 1:26-27 NIV). Wow! Christmas means the living Word in you! Now, like Him, you’re the Word in flesh, because you’re born of the Word: “For through the living and eternal word of God you have been born again as the children of a parent who is immortal, not mortal” (1 Peter 1:23 GNB). The Word became flesh and walked the streets, until He was slain. However, God raised Him up and showed Him openly with many infallible proofs.
Now, He abides in you. He lives in you, and you live through Him! This is the true definition and essence of Christmas: The Word has come. Christ is born. He lived and died, to be born in our hearts. Now He abides in you forever! The One whose glory and light the Prophets spoke of; the true Light, which lights every man that comes into the world; the very essence of life—Christ Jesus—is born in our hearts and He’s alive in you today. Merry Christmas!
