Good Morning Friends issue 22

Mat 10:12-13 And as ye enter into the house, salute it. And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you.

As you enter that home, that church, that business, wherever you go, present your peace offering to Me. If I dwell therein, you shall know. If I am not Lord there, your peace offering returns upon you.

You have entered many doorways. Many have entered your house also. Do you ask the gift of My divine Presence? Do others feel, in your own home the peace of a loving Savior who dwells there? Do not think this is a mere quaint custom. This is My expressed will that I might bless all that seek Me. They will come to Me, and you shall go where I send. Take Me with you always. This is assuredly a season of peace and goodwill.

With Love Eternal,
Jesus

The early church was blessed and grew because they took the Lord Jesus at Spirit value and did all that He said to do. I salute you today, in the name of the Lord.
Lord Jesus, on this Christmas Day to celebrate Your birth we remember this:

You denied Yourself and left Your familiar surrounding of a heavenly Kingdom where You were worshipped and adored by angelic beings, seraphim and cherubim. The elders and living creatures surrounded You and continually sang praises to You. Lamb of God, we raise our voice on this occasion to praise and worship You this day.

God the Father and the Holy Spirit’s love was so strong there---that it illuminated that Great Place. There, You had glory, honor, power, and a Kingdom of peace. You willingly left it all behind so You could be a missionary in a foreign land called the Earth. Lamb of God, we raise our voice to thank You for Your sacrifice on this day.

You allowed Yourself to be born in a humble stall amidst the domestic beasts of the Earth. You came in such haste, that You were wrapped in swaddling clothes and placed in a manger. Lamb of God, we raise our voice on this occasion to thank You for displaying for us what humility is.
Your message was so urgent that God placed a bright and shining star in the East, so that men would see the sign that You had arrived. Lamb of God, we raise our voice on this occasion to thank the shepherds and wise men that witnessed Your birth historically for our sake.
An angel and the great company of the heavenly host praised God and announced this awesome event. Shepherds of the field visited You and rejoiced at Your Presence. Wise Magi brought offerings of their treasures to present to You. They were overjoyed as they bowed down to worship. Lamb of God, we raise our voice on this occasion to bow down and worship You for Your redemption of mankind.

Lamb of God, we recall and recognize that You have shown man Your great love. We thank You this day as we gather with other Christians throughout the world in memory of Your birth. May our prayer and honor please You this day. May this day be set aside as holy and pleasing to You, through Your Holy name. Amen
