- 0:00Hey there, Merry Christmas. Here we are.
- 0:03Celebrating the birth of Jesus. That gives us this unspeakable,
- 0:08joy, Everlasting peace, and a love.
- 0:11That was so immeasurable towards us an eternal life to all who
- 0:17believe in him. I'm so excited to liver day, 25
- 0:22to you. I'll be reading Luke Chapter 2
- 0:25verses 11 through 12 today. The savior.
- 0:30ER, yes, the Messiah. The Lord has been born today and
- 0:34Bethlehem the city of David and you will recognize him by this
- 0:39sign. You will find a baby wrapped
- 0:41snugly in strips of cloth, lying in a Manger day 25.
- 0:47One thing the manger reveals to us.
- 0:50Jesus is inclusive. Everyone can approach a Manger,
- 0:55everyone can approach Jesus everyone the only Who can't
- 1:00come, those who are excluded are the ones who think they are too
- 1:04good for a stable to Superior to need help or Too Proud to Bow
- 1:09their knee. These folks have trouble with
- 1:12Jesus. Sometimes I'm this type of folk.
- 1:16John 6:37, says all that, the father gives me will come to me
- 1:20and the one who comes to me, I will by no means cast out Jesus
- 1:26says come no matter your past, no matter, your pay grade.
- 1:29No matter your persuasion about anything simply come the holy
- 1:35spirit will do the transforming. And we myself included need to
- 1:39stop the judging the doing and the trying I can't earn his
- 1:44love. I can't work for his love and is
- 1:47not up to me to get it right because he is the only one who
- 1:51is Right? Genuine Freedom begins when I
- 1:54stop trying so hard and lean desperately and to his Limitless
- 1:58Grace. So wretched sinner that I am yet
- 2:03being transformed by his power. I come to the manger, I come to
- 2:07bow at the animals, rugged food, trough that has now turned into
- 2:11his throne of Blazing Sovereign, Glory.
- 2:14I'd come with humble, praise, all.
- 2:17Because at the manger, he included me.
- 2:23And here are a couple questions to ponder on, what are some ways
- 2:26you need to be transformed by his power and to do less judging
- 2:31doing and trying the season. And how does today's devotional
- 2:36speak to you personally? Thank you so much, Lord, that
- 2:40you Jesus are inclusive and you take us how we are and give us
- 2:45life that is Everlasting. Thank you for giving us genuine
- 2:49Freedom by your Limitless growth.

- 3:10always continues. Hey, if you haven't received
- 3:15Jesus as your savior and you would love for him to come into
- 3:18your life. Say this prayer with me out loud
- 3:21Right Where You Are. Dear, heavenly, father, I come
- 3:25to you in the name of Jesus. Your word says, in John 6:37.
- 3:31All of those, the father gives me will come to me and whoever
- 3:35comes to me, I will never drive away, so I know that you will
- 3:40never drive our cast me out, but you take me in and I thank you
- 3:46for it. You saying your word in Romans,
- 3:4910:13, whoever calls upon on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
- 3:56I'm calling on your name so I know you have saved me now.
- 4:01You also say God in Romans 10:9 through 10, if you declare with
- 4:07your mouth, Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart, that God
- 4:12raised him from the dead, you will be saved for it is with
- 4:16your heart that you believe and are Justified and it is with
- 4:20your mouth that you profess. Is your faith and are saved.
- 4:26I believe in my heart. Jesus Christ is the Son of God.
- 4:31I believe that he was raised from the dead for my
- 4:34justification. And I confess him now as my Lord
- 4:41and I do believe with my heart, I'm now become the righteousness
- 4:47of God in Christ and I am saved. Thank you.
