Come Let Us Adore Him
Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord.
Luke 2:11
Jesus Christ was born in the humblest of settings, yet heaven was filled with the song of the angels. His birthplace was a humble one room house in a small manger, yet a star brought princes 2,000 miles to worship Him. He was born contrary to the laws of life. His death was contrary to the laws of death. Yet no miracle is as inexplicable as His life and teaching. He had no cornfields or fisheries, but He spread a table for 5,000 and had bread and fish to spare! He walked on no expensive carpeting, yet He walked on the waters and they supported Him. His crucifixion was the crime of crimes, yet from God’s perspective no less a price could have made possible our redemption. When He died, few men mourned, but God hung black crepe over the sun. Those who crucified Him didn’t tremble at what they’d done; yet the earth shook under them. Sin never touched Him. Corruption could not get hold of His body. The soil that had been reddened with His blood could not claim His dust. Three plus years He preached the Gospel. He wrote no book, built no church, had no money to back Him. Yet after 2,000 years He is still the one central character of human history, the perpetual theme of all preaching, the pivot around which the events of the age revolve, and the only Redeemer of the human race. Come let us adore Him - Christ the Lord!
PrayerHeavenly Father – your presence that graced the earth 2000 years ago continues to dwell here with me. Help me study your mind, method, manner and ministry this year as I explore the reason you came into this world and into my life. In Jesus’ Name, Amen
