Ever wondered why Jesus being born to a virgin is so significant? God promised in Isaiah 14 that he would send a sign, and that when this sign appears, everyone would know that the baby born is "God with us". This sign reminds us beyond a shadow of a doubt that Jesus truly is the son of God!

“14 So the Word became human and made his home among us. He was full of unfailing love and faithfulness. And we have seen his glory, the glory of the Father’s one and only Son.” (John 1:14) [NLT]

“All right then, the Lord himself will give you the sign. Look! The virgin will conceive a child! She will give birth to a son and will call him Immanuel (which means ‘God is with us’).” (Isa. 41:6) [NLT]

In this video, we share on the fact that God is with us. No where you are in life right now, maybe you have sinned, maybe you are going through a difficult time, maybe you feel distant from God. God is with you!

Sometimes as Christians, the devil lies to us, saying "God has left you", but this is not true!Be encouraged by this Christmas message as we talk about Immanuel, God with us!

‘1 In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God. God created everything through him…….So the Word became human and made his home among us….. And we have seen his glory...' (John 1:1-14)

#Time to move forward

Jesus asked: "Would you like to get well?” “I can’t, sir,” the sick man said..."

✅ Love For My Neighbours1 John 4: 20-21, ‘20 If someone says, “I love God,” but hates a fellow believer, that person is a liar; for if we don’t love people we can see, how can we love God, whom we cannot see? 21 And he has given us this command: Those who love God must also love their fellow believers.’ NLT

- Love is what we do, not what we feel

✅I don’t want to be mobilised! John 5:5-9, ‘5 One of the men lying there had been sick for thirty-eight years….6 Would you like to get well?” 7 “I can’t, sir,” the sick man said, “for I have no one to put me into the pool when the water bubbles up. Someone else always gets there ahead of me.” 8 Jesus told him, “Stand up, pick up your mat, and walk!” 9 Instantly, the man was healed! He rolled up his sleeping mat and began walking!...’ NLT

- Stand, Roll up your Mat, start Walking!

✅Take a stand! Gal. 1:10, ‘Obviously, I’m not trying to win the approval of people, but of God.’ If pleasing people were my goal, I would not be Christ’s servant.’ NLT

- Take a stand for the lost in your world

✅Pick Up Your MatMatt. 16: 24, ‘Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross, and follow me.’ NLT

- Taking up one's cross signifies a willingness to endure hardship and persecution for the sake of Christ. It is a call to embrace the challenges and sacrifices inherent in living a life devoted to Jesus

We are eternal beings with an eternal purpose! Those who win souls are wise and shine like bright like the stars for eternity!

✅ Wisdom is Winning!

Dan. 12:3, ‘Those who are wise will shine as bright as the sky, and those who lead many to righteousness will shine like the stars forever.’ NLT

- We can only take souls to heaven!

✅ Ignoring the Calling…

John 4: 27 & 35, ‘Just then His disciples came, and they were surprised to find Him talking with a woman. However, no one said, “What are You asking about?” or, “Why are You talking to her?”……35 Do you not say, ‘It is still four months until the harvest comes?’ Look, I say to you, raise your eyes and look at the fields and see, they are white for harvest.’ AMP

- Ignore = refuse to take notice of or acknowledge; disregard intentionally.

✅ Life’s Responsibilities and Demands

John 4: 35,-36,  ‘34 My nourishment comes from doing the will of God, who sent me, and from finishing his work..… 35 You know the saying, ‘Four months between planting and harvest.’ But I say, wake up and look around. The fields are already ripe for harvest. 36 The harvesters are paid good wages, and the fruit they harvest is people brought to eternal life. What joy awaits both the planter and the harvester alike!’ NLT

- We will experience God’s supernatural provision when we focus on the lost in our world!
