Title: Peace and Goodwill.
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace, good will toward men.
Luke 2:13-14 KJV
Devotion: Jesus Christ is the gift for the whole world. He was given to the whole world so that the people in the world can be saved and prosper therewith (John 3:16). When He was born, the angel of the Lord came to deliver this good news to the shepherds in the fields. They gave glory to God and declared the peace and goodwill of God to humanity.
God cannot stop loving people because they are created in the image of God (Genesis 1:27).
Dear beloved, God cannot stop loving you. He has your goodwill at heart; He thinks about you and wants your life to be filled with peace. Just as the angel of the Lord gave glory to God, you must also endeavour to give glory to God for giving Jesus Christ to you. If you have Jesus Christ, you have everything because He is the heir of God, and you are the joint heir with Christ (Romans 8:17).
The more you thank God for giving Jesus Christ to you, the more the other blessings in your life will be released to you. Praise the Lord! Hosanna in the Highest!
There are wars going on in the world today because most do not believe in Jesus rather they believe in bombs, guns and economic might. The rich oppress the poor, the powerful kills the weak because there's no love, no humanity again.
Animalistic behaviour is reigning all over the place. United Nation has not been able to bring peace but only one person can do it and the person is Jesus Christ.
As we patiently wait for his second coming let's preach him, live like him and love like him. It is important to recognize the fact that only Jesus can bring peace to the world.
Christmas time is not drinking and eating time but sharing agape love, helping the needy and weak in our society, are you prepared. Share your opinion with us.
