Take It Home Advent: Rejoice Day 3
Rejoice for this Reason
How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of a messenger who proclaims peace, who brings good news, who proclaims salvation, who says to Zion, “Your God rules!” Isaiah 52:7 CEB
And how will anyone go and tell them without being sent? That is why the Scriptures say, “How beautiful are the feet of messengers who bring good news!” Romans 10:15 NLT
Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed - not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence - continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose. Philippians 2:12 NIV
The birth of Jesus brings God’s Peace and Love in human form. It announces rescue from our sins; the nearness of our salvation; and the gift of finding joy and peace in a struggling world. So how do we bring Jesus the Word from words into action? Give praise that the Holy Spirit resides in us. Pray about ways to bring Peace to others. Meditate to rest yourself in God’s love and show His love to others. Discover ways to bless others as a glorious example of how to work out your salvation with fear and trembling.
