Christmas Quote 🎄

Joseph and Mary was in a journey to:
1- Pay Their Taxes
2-A Plight of Unforseen Troubles
3- Receive the Priceless Treasures from the Wise Men
4- To Prosper and Triumph Over Evil
5- The Peril and Turmoil, But Came Out Victorious.

(Luke 2:1-7 KJV)
"And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed. [2] ( And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.) [3] And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city. [4] And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:) [5] To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. [6] And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered. [7] And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn."

Christmas Quote 🎄

When Joseph and Mary arrived to their destination- no one greeted them. When Mary gave Birth to our Lord and Savior; it was the Star, the Wise Men, the Shepherds, and few animals around the Manger celebrated His birth. Today, would you join them in worship as you celebrate Christmas?

(Matthew 2:9-11 KJV)
"When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was. [10] When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy. [11] And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh."

Christmas Quote 🎄

The 'Star' is something people used or associates with, in one's accolades, bright future, and many times in Movie or Music Industries. But for Mary and Joseph; it was about Jesus, it was a trip of humility and sufferings under the power of egoistic king- Herod. It's about obedience and faith. It's about the salvation of the lost world. Tonight, try to look up the sky and see with your naked eyes the stars in the skies, and be reminded of the love of God, and that first Christmas Day. Remember that at the back of the clouds are the stars of God.

(Matthew 2:1-2 KJV)
"Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, [2] Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him."

Christmas Quote 🎄

It breaks my heart when I see a couple who bought less than $500.00 of Christmas related gifts and groceries, and their Credit Card was declined. They went home with empty hands but the useless Credit Card. Celebrate Christmas with God's precious gift- the Lord Jesus Christ. He is your most precious present from God the Father. - (John 3:15-18 KJV)
"That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. [16] For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. [17] For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. [18] He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."

Christmas Quote 🎄 

The name 'Mary' is a very common name. Unfortunately, some people used the name in their curse, in swearing, or just casually used such name without valid purpose or reason. But to live the life Mary the mother of Jesus in the flesh had lived during her lifetime is unparalleled.

#Boklit

(Luke 1:46-56 KJV)

"And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, [47] And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. [48] For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed. [49] For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name. [50] And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation. [51] He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts. [52] He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree. [53] He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away. [54] He hath holpen his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy; [55] As he spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed for ever. [56] And Mary abode with her about three months, and returned to her own house."

Christmas Quote 🎄 

Joseph's Father 

   Have you ever wondered what kind of father Joseph's father was? Joseph the husband of Mary (the mother of Jesus in the flesh) was the appointed father of the Lord Jesus Christ. Some Preachers called him the stepfather or the father in the flesh of the Lord Jesus Christ. How would you picture him in your mind if he is alive, and with us today? I know that not many Pastors, Preachers, and Evangelists really give much attention to the father of Joseph because he was never mentioned in the Scriptures. Here's what I may think of him as a good follower of God the Father. 

● Joseph's father may have made some bad decisions just like us, but he made sure Joseph will not do the same.

● Joseph's father was a believer, but just like many of us- we sometimes waver in our faith in God.

● Joseph's father had ups and downs in his relationships with his wife and his families, as well as with God; but he made sure that he settled and forgave them. 

● Joseph's father has his own foolishness or idiosyncrasies like king David, but he made sure he corrected them, and made Joseph learn from it.

● Joseph's father feared God, but he also had some ungodly fear.

● Joseph's father respects women and their purity, it shows how his son Joseph responded when he found out that Mary was pregnant.

● Joseph's father was a Law abiding Citizen, as you can tell that Joseph paid his taxes and observed the Law of the Land in lieu of Marriage.

If God will entrust to you the Joseph of our time, what will the future generations say about you, and your legacy?

(Matthew 1:16 KJV)

"And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ."

Christmas Quote 🎄

Believing in the Spirit of Christmas, and the Celebration of the Birth of the Son of God for the remission of our sins could mean believing in the gift of Eternal life to those who comes to Him by faith. Sadly, its the wrath of God for those who reject the Lord Jesus Christ. - (John 3:35-36 KJV) "The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand. [36] He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him."
