Glory to God in the Highest

Openning Prayer (Thanksgiving and Intercession)

After grace had been revealed both the learned and simple folk are bound to explicit faith in the mysteries of Christ, chiefly as regards those which are observed and publicly proclaimed, such as the articles which refer to the Incarnation.

Saint Thomas Aquinas

He took humanity into His deity: that is the whole meaning of the incarnation. That is precisely what happened at Bethlehem. Saved in Eternity, 103

David Martyn Lloyd-Jones (Welsh Preacher and Writer)

The atonement is the real reason for the Incarnation.

James Montgomery Boice

I Pray We Remind Ourselves Why Jesus’s Birth is Worthy of Our Complete Joy and Adulation.

Hear the Words of a wonderful Christmas Hymn

Born a King on Bethlehem’s plain Gold I bring to crown Him again King forever, ceasing never Over us all to reign.

Frankincense to offer have I Incense owns a Deity nigh Prayer and praising, voices raising Worship Him, God most high.

Myrrh is mine, its bitter perfume Breathes a life of gathering gloom Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying Sealed in the stone-cold tomb.

Glorious now behold Him arise King and God and sacrifice Heaven sings, 'Alleluia!' ‘Alleluia!’ the Earth replies.

O Star of wonder, star of night Star with royal beauty bright Westward leading, still proceeding Guide us to thy perfect light.

“We Three Kings”

2. I Encourage You to Keep the Main Thing the Main Thing Everyday.

Read Luke 2:1-20

YHWH, the God of the Universe, came to give life to that which is dead; find that which is lost; and to redeemed that which is enslaved.

God has come to bear our burdens, to share our tears, and to cover a multitude of sins for his own.

3. May We Encourage One Another Remembering that Christmas is more than a day, it is an attitude!

For the believer, everyday from now, until eternity, is a blissful Christmas-like day.

Our rejoicing, hoping, peaceable life, and love are a means to worship and glorify God who is in all, through all, and above all.

May we face the remaining days of 2025, and the whole of 2026, with a holy sense of optimism, knowing that the incarnate God has defeated the enemy once and for all.

May this be our refrain:

Legacy Standard Bible CHAPTER 2

“Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace among men with whom He is pleased.”
