FAITH CAPSULE: What is it that you have to offer Jesus as you celebrate Him today?

Luke 2:1-35
Jesus is the gift of God for man’s salvation. He is here for man’s deliverance and preservation if all man will engage Him, to unwrap Him as God’s gift.
Through the Bible, it is almost impossible to find any name in the Bible that does not answer to its meaning.
Here are some identified names which answered to a meaningful life: Joshua–God is Salvation; Samson–Strong; Delilah–Delicate; Josiah–Jehovah supports; and Samuel–Asked of God; Emmanuel—God with us. However, Jesus’ name answered and still answers as Immanuel. His name is power to deliver and preserve those who know to call in His name.
In this season of celebration, celebrate Him as the Lord and Savior and not as Santa from the North Pole. Jesus is the reason for the season. Get to know Jesus today. Jesus is –Yahweh saves, Immanuel–God with us, Light of the World–One who brings hope and gives guidance, Son of David–One who brings in the Kingdom, Chief Shepherd–Gives guidance and protection, Chief Cornerstone–A sure foundation of life, Firstborn from the Dead–Leads us into resurrection, and Word–Eternal God who ultimately reveals God. Identify with His name as evidence for knowing Him and owe no man or force an apology for knowing Him.
The celebration of the birth of Jesus is not with the understanding of His coming by His believers. Do you know the reason why you are celebrating the birth of Jesus? Jesus’s birth is His coming for all.
Jesus stated the reason for His coming, “The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life and that they may have it more abundantly.” (John 10:10) Where there is a lack of understanding of His coming there will be no reason to believe.
The gift of God for all is His love offering for all. Word recorded in 1John 4:9, “In this, the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him.” Jesus is the love of God for all. 1 John 5:1 speaks to all man, “Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God and everyone who loves Him who begot also loves him who is begotten of Him.” It is worthy that from this day, all man should know to unwrap God’s gift to man, as all man’s evidence to accepted God’s gift.  It is time to respond to God’s gift by accepting the love of God and abide in Him.
What is it that you have to offer Jesus as you celebrate Him?
Pay your attention to the truth that celebrating Jesus unpleasingly is a possible unacceptable celebration. With Faith, God is pleased with all man. Faith is the reason to Celebrate God’s gift faithfully.

Prayer for today: Ask God to open your understanding for the reason of Jesus as His gift for all.
