According to the computer's clock, which is pretty accurate, we are now six minutes into Christmas Day. It is 12:06 a.m., in Atlanta, Georgia. As founder of Mission Lighthouse Ministry, I would like to say Merry Christmas to all of the reader's of this blog. It is a simple blog. There are not a lot of bells and whistles but what is important, is to keep it simple, keep it modest and keep it plain. You see, Jesus Christ was born on this day well over 2000 years ago. Happy Birthday Lord Jesus. Thank you for being my Messiah, the Son of God, Wonderful Counselor and Prince of Peace.
Where do we learn the Story of Jesus' Birth? In the New Covenant, The New Testament, Book of Matthew and the Book of Luke. The scripture presented here is from the English Standard Version Holy Bible which was given to me as a gift from my loving wife Amy on Christmas Eve. The complete story of Jesus Christ's Birth is in the Book of Luke, yet, at the same time, it was prophesied in the Book of Isaiah in the Old Covenant, the Old Testament. It is said that there are over 350 prophesies of the Coming of Christ and they are spelled out in the Old Testament. However, I can only focus on what is said in Isaiah at this moment.
After the scripture, there is a movie from New Line Cinema called, "The Nativity Story" presented here as found on Youtube. It is nearly one hour and forty minutes long but it is worth sharing it here. I am not sure about the copyright's here but it has been shared on Youtube and I hope you enjoy it.
Isaiah 7:14 says, "Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign . Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call him Immanuel." Immanuel meaning God with Us.
Isaiah 9:6 says, "For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace."
Reference for the scripture is the English Standard Version translation of the Holy Bible.
