SCRIPTURE
“The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.” John 1:14 (NIV).
MESSAGE
God sent His love son to the world of humans, to exemplify His life. The Word of God who is Jesus put on flesh when the Angel of God spoke it to Mary, and she conceived and gave birth to the Lord Jesus. The Lord Jesus lived on earth as the God-man. The Bible says, “ Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might break the power of him who holds the power of death that is, the devil, and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death” Hebrews 2:14-15 (NIV). While physically on earth, the Lord Jesus was the living expression of God’s Word. He declared, “I and my Father are one” (John 10:30). He demonstrated the kind of life we are called as believers to live in this world, as light, salt, a life of dominion, and being a good steward over God’s creation. You are not ordinary. God want you to recognize your position in Him and live from that place to impact your world.
PRAYER / CONFESSION
Heavenly Father, I thank You that Jesus, the Word, became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth. By His humanity, Jesus took on the power of death and the devil and freed me from the bondage of fear and death. I declare that I live in the liberty that Christ provided. I live as Christ lived in the name of the Lord Jesus Amen.
WISDOM NUGGET
“For surely it is not angels he helps, but Abraham’s descendants. For this reason he had to be made like them fully human in every way, in order that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, and that he might make atonement for the sins of the people.” Hebrews 2:16-17
