Men shall speak of the might of Your awesome acts, and I will declare Your greatness. They shall utter the memory of Your great goodness, and shall sing of Your righteousness.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">When we were children, it never seemed like Christmas would ever come. I remember trying to sleep the night before, then running into my parent\u2019s room at the crack of dawn to wake them so that we could all go downstairs to see what Santa had brought. Christmas was a magical time when dreams came true. There was an expectation in the air that come Christmas day; I would experience great joy, not just for the gifts, but the general way everyone treated each other; Christmas Day transformed life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Can you imagine what the Israelites of Isiah\u2019s time must have felt? Isiah, in chapter 11, portrays the most encouraging image of the character of Christ. It gives this pastoral view of worldly peace and tranquility. It talks of a savior that will rule with justice for the poor. It describes enemies living in peace. This gift that God had planned for humanity was not just a Chatty Cathy or GI Joe; it was a living testimony of God\u2019s love and kindness toward a people that had turned their backs on Him. It was a savior that would save the world from itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\"><strong>James 1:17<\/strong>, \u201cEvery good thing given and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">Christmas Eve was going to be over 730 years away. Seven hundred and thirty years of struggles and lost dreams. Seven hundred and thirty years of wondering if the prophet Isiah spoke the truth. Did Isiah have the ear of God; was there a savior, and would this cup ever be taken from us? What the Israelites looked for was far more than a simple gift, a bobble, or a trinket; it was life itself. It was confirmation that they were God\u2019s children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\"><strong>Galatians 4:4<\/strong>, \u201cBut when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the Law.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">When Christ did come, it wasn\u2019t presents under the tree at sunrise. There was no Christmas Day parade. It was not celebrated. The Israelites waited for so long; many forgot what they were waiting for. Even after Jesus started His ministry, many denied His deity, miracles, and message.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\"><strong>1 Peter 5:6<\/strong>, \u201cTherefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">The simple message I have going into Christmas is this; Wait on Christ. Christ will do all that He says He will do. He will answer every prayer. The Israelites waited over seven hundred years for their savior, and most of them missed it when He showed up. Don\u2019t get so entrenched in your thinking that you miss what God is doing every day in your life. What He has in store for you is beyond your ability to describe. His love for you, and therefore His blessing for you, are immeasurable. Whatever you want is nothing more than window dressing to the life He has planned for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\"><strong>2 Peter 3:8<\/strong>, \u201cBut do not let this one fact escape your notice, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like one day.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\">This Christmas, remember all that God has done in your life as a witness to what He will do. We may not get what we want when we want it, but that is to His glory that He may be known to you. Therefore, we should wait joyfully, knowing that His timing is always perfect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify\"><strong>Numbers 23:19<\/strong>, \u201cGod is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should repent; Has He said, and will He not do it? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Psalm 145:5-7, \u201cI will meditate on the glorious splendor of Your majesty, and on Your wondrous works.
