Day Ten Christmas Scripture


Today is the day the Lord has made, I will REJOICE!  Rejoice and sing loudly to the Lord for He is good.  Christmas is a time for singing, standing up, arms held high, and hearts receiving.  Praising and singing is an awesome way to show your love to the Lord for all the good He has done in your life.  At this time of year, reflect on all the good you have in your life.  Praise be to God the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords!  Celebrate with your family singing carols of Christmas.

 

Psalm 150

Praise the Lord.
Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty heavens.
Praise him for his acts of power; praise him for his surpassing greatness. 
Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet, praise him with the harp and lyre, praise him with timbrel and dancing, praise him with the strings and pipe, praise him with the clash of cymbals, praise him with resounding cymbals.  Let everything that has breath praise the Lord.
Praise the Lord.

Day Seven Christmas Scripture

Do you ever fear that the sun will not come up or morning will not come.  Has it ever yet?  It's one of those things that we can see and for some reason because it always happens we do not question it or fear it.  So God's love is the same way, just as the rain falls, the sun comes up, morning arises and dusk falls...so does his Love...it's faithful.  He will not fail you, He loves you.  He is love.  Sink in to this good word today.  Press in and find all of the wonderful treasures of faithfulness in this scripture.  You won't be disappointed.


Isaiah 55:6-11
Seek the Lord while he may be found;  call on him while he is near. 
Let the wicked forsake their ways and the unrighteous their thoughts.
Let them turn to the Lord, and he will have mercy on them, and to our God, for he will freely pardon.
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. 
“As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.  As the rain and the snow come down from heaven,
and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so is my word that goes out from my mouth:  It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.


As you go about your travels in the next few days, remember all of the points we focused on this week, greetings, visiting, faith, sharing, and making memories.  You only get this Christmas time once so make the most of it.  Get connected to God and find peace, joy and love this holiday season.  God bless.

Day 2 Christmas Scripture

A Time for Memories- Read Luke 1:68-79

Join with me in a 25 day Christmas scripture celebration of God's word. It will inspire, bless you and give you some peace through the days ahead. Enjoy.


When doing my scripture reading for today, I began by trying to find a few verses that captured my heart. Well, I had do to a whole lot of verses because it's truly a powerful verse.

“Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, because he has come to his people and redeemed them. He has raised up a horn[a] of salvation for us in the house of his servant David (as he said through his holy prophets of long ago), salvation from our enemies and from the hand of all who hate us— to show mercy to our ancestors and to remember his holy covenant, the oath he swore to our father Abraham: to rescue us from the hand of our enemies, and to enable us to serve him without fear in holiness and righteousness before him all our days. And you, my child, will be called a prophet of the Most High; for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for him, to give his people the knowledge of salvation through the forgiveness of their sins, because of the tender mercy of our God, by which the rising sun will come to us from heaven to shine on those living in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the path of peace.”


 He will guide our feet into the path of peace. Powerful words and He means it. How awesome is that coming from our Father that we can know without a shadow of a doubt that He will Guide our feet into the path of peace. Awesome! Going back to the beginning of the verses, we must remember our covenant that brought us to where we are today. Our faith and His mercy has brought us to salvation. He rescued us from the pits of despair and is working through you right now.


Go forth today celebrating and serving the Lord with courage, righteousness and joy!
