About
I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

"INCLUDING JESUS IN CHRISTMAS" BY DAVID MCMILLEN
GOOD MORNING AND MERRY CHRISTMAS TO EVERYONE. I HOPE ALL OF YOU ARE READY TO HAVE A BLESSED DAY, MAKING JESUS THE HIGHLIGHT AND CENTER OF IT ALL. HE IS THE REASON, YOU KNOW. THE SAD THING IS THAT MOST PEOPLE WOKE UP THIS MORNING THINKING ONLY OF THE PRESENTS TO OPEN, THE DINNER TO PREPARE AND EAT AND BALL GAMES TO WATCH. THEY DIDN'T EVEN TELL JESUS GOOD MORNING AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY.
WHAT DID YOU GET HIM FOR HIS BIRTHDAY? YOU PROBABLY THINK THAT IS SILLY SINCE YOU WOULD IMAGINE HE, BEING GOD, HAS EVERYTHING, BUT DOES HE???? DOES HE HAVE OUR TOTAL OBEDIENCE? DOES HE HAVE OUR TOTAL BELIEF IN HIS WORD AND THE FAITH TO ACT ON IT? AND, DOES HE HAVE ALL THE ONES GOD HAS DRAWN TO HIM? YES, GOD HAS TO DRAW US TO HIM FIRST. JESUS SAYS IN JOHN 6:44 THAT "No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day." YOU SEE, THERE ARE A LOT OF THINGS WE CAN GIVE HIM AND MAKING A COMMITMENT TODAY CAN BE A GREAT GIFT TO HIM.
HOW ABOUT OUR HEALING? WOULDN'T YOU THINK THAT SEEING US HEALED WOULD BE A GREAT PRESENT FOR HIM? WELL, IT IS UP TO US, NOT HIM. HE HAS DONE HIS PART AND WE HAVE TO HAVE FAITH TO BELIEVE THAT WHAT HE SAYS, HE WILL DO. A LOT OF PEOPLE, EVEN BORN AGAIN CHRISTIANS, SAY THAT IF IT IS GOD'S WILL THAT WE BE HEALED, AND WILL LEAVE IT AT THAT. "IF IT BE THY WILL" IS THE WORST EXCUSE FOR NOT BELIEVING I HAVE EVER HEARD. THERE ARE SCRIPTURES SHOWING THAT GOD WANTS US HEALED, PROSPEROUS AND HAPPY AND WE SAY "IF IT BE THY WILL". SHAME ON ANYONE WHO SAYS THAT ABOUT SOMETHING THAT HIS WORD EXPLAINS THAT IT IS HIS WILL. ANYWAY, GOD'S WILL DOES NOT ALWAYS COME TO PASS. YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME DO YOU? WELL, JUST READ THIS NEXT VERSE AND IF YOU BELIEVE EVERYTHING IN THE BIBLE, BELIEVE THIS. PETER SAYS IN 2ND PETER 3:9 THAT "The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance." ALTHOUGH IT IS HIS WILL THAT NONE SHOULD PERISH, WE KNOW THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE DO. SO, LIKE I SAID, HIS WILL DOES NOT ALWAYS COME TO PASS. (JUST AS A SIDE NOTE, HE IS THE ALMIGHTY GOD BUT HE GAVE US A FREE WILL AND HE WILL NOT GO AGAINST OUR WILL. SO, IF YOU DECIDE NOT TO ACCEPT JESUS AS YOUR SAVIOR, HE WILL LET YOU GO TO HELL. SIN HAS TO BE JUDGED AND IF YOU DON'T TAKE JESUS' GIFT OF GOING TO THE CROSS FOR YOUS SINS THEN YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR THEM. SIMPLE AS THAT.)
NOW I KNOW THIS IS CHRISTMAS MORNING BUT IT IS NOT TOO LATE TO GIVE HIM A PRESENT. YOU KNOW WHAT YOU CAN GIVE HIM AND IT WILL BE SPECIAL FOR HIM FROM YOU. IT COULD BE YOUR ACCEPTING YOUR HEALING OR ACCEPTING THAT YOU ARE PROSPERING AND ACT UPON IT OR DOING SOMETHING THAT YOU KNOW IS A SIN. IF YOU ARE NOT BORN AGAIN, HOW ABOUT GIVING YOUR LIFE TO HIM. WOW, WHAT A GIFT THAT WOULD BE.
ONE OTHER THING, DID YOU BAKE HIM A BIRTHDAY CAKE? I MENTIONED THIS IN AN EARLIER MESSAGE SO YOU WOULD HAVE TIME TO DO IT IF, YOU SO DESIRED. THIS WOULD BE A GREAT TIME TO SHOW THE CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN JUST WHAT CHRISTMAS IS ABOUT AND REALLY INCLUDING HIM IN ALL THAT IS GOING ON. THIS, IN ITSELF, WOULD BE A GREAT PRESENT FOR HIM.
AGAIN, MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAVE A VERY BLESSED DAY.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL..
