Happy Birthday
For to us a Child is born, to us a Son is given; and the government shall be on His shoulder; and His name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. (Isa 9:6)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Joseph went up from Galilee to be taxed (out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family line of David). And he took Mary his betrothed wife, being with child.
And while they were there, the days for her deliverance were fulfilled. And she brought forth her son, the First-born, and wrapped Him, and laid Him in a manger-- because there was no room for them in the inn.
And in the same country there were shepherds living in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And lo, the angel of the Lord came on them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them. And they were grievously afraid.
And the angel said to them, Do not fear. For behold, I give to you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For to you is born today, in the city of David, a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. (Luke 2:4-11) Let's pray.
Happy birthday Lord Jesus. Every good thing I have is from you, and there is no gift I can give you, but to accept your gift, and follow you. You came for the joy of being one with us in the Father. And so Lord Jesus, I give myself to you.
I am humbled dear Lord because even as I continue giving myself to you, I receive the most precious gift, knowing you. Happy birthday Jesus.
Today's very great and precious promise
Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. (Luke 2:14 )
We have God's Word on it.
