After an angel of the Lord had delivered the incredible message of Christ’s birth to the watchful shepherds living out in the fields, the Bible tells us that “a great company of heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God“. The angels descended upon Bethlehem singing glorious songs of praise in celebration of the birth of Christ – it was Christmas!
It’s not yet December 25th but today can be Christmas Day for you. On Christmas Day we celebrate Christ’s birth – the manifestation of God in human form here on earth (John 1:14) – but you can celebrate the birth of Christ in your life today. Simply ask Him to come into your heart and He will bring you new birth; if you have already done so, you can ask Him to be birthed anew in you. When you experience Christ in your life, you too, like the angels, will burst into songs of praise,
“Glory to God in the highest, peace to men on whom His favour rests!” [Luke 2:14]
Amen †
