Scripture Reading: Luke 1:14-47 and Luke 2:10
Focus Verse: Matthew 2:10 “When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.”
When Jesus came into the world over 2000 years ago there was trouble in the world just like there is today. When Jesus was born words like “joyful” and “rejoice” were used by many people. Mary said, “oh how my soul praises the Lord. How my spirit rejoices in God my Savior.” The angel told Zechariah, “you will have great joy and gladness, and many will rejoice a His birth.” When Elizabeth heard Mary’s voice, she said, “the babe leaped in my womb for joy.” When the Magi saw the star, “they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.” And the shepherds heard the angel say, “I bring you good news that will bring great joy to all people.” No matter your circumstances you can have great joy because of the birth of Jesus. Because we know He is the one that has made it possible for us to live in heaven one day for all eternity. Remember, “Joy to the world, the Lord has come.
