The Heart Becomes Overjoyed When Jesus Comes In
Greetings in Jesus name, scripture for the month of December is taken from Luke 2:7
"and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger because there was no guest room available for them". (NIV)
'The Heart Becomes Overjoyed When Jesus Comes In'
The Bible tells us, "But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong". (1 Corinthians 1:27 NIV)
There was no room available at the Inn, but God chose a manger for Jesus to dwell. Not the ideal place for a King to be born some say, but as it states in 1 Corinthians 1:27, God chooses the foolish things of the word to shame the wise; God chose humble beginnings, a blessed dwelling place indeed.
Like with Jesus's humble beginnings at His birth, from scripture, we learn, God always seeks a humble heart to dwell. No matter from where and what background we belong, Jesus Christ can find a resting place in our hearts, where he brings blessings and peace, if we will only humble ourselves, and open our hearts to Him, the Lamb of God, the Savior of the World!
The Joy of Letting Him In
When Christ dwells in us we are no longer insignificant but translated Chosen ones of God, His Beloved Children. This is the Joy we have when Jesus comes into our hearts and He becomes Lord of our lives.
As the world celebrates Christmas and the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, let's be reminded, to let Jesus in, and partake of the blessings, peace and joy His presence in our lives brings. We have been chosen for God’s purposes, and the only way He can dwell in our hearts, is we must first humble ourselves, hear the knock at the door of our hearts, and let Him in....
God bless you! Have a Merry Christmas!
