I Bring You Good News
That Will
Bring Great Joy To All People.


Scripture

Luke 2

⁸ That night there were shepherds staying in the fields nearby, guarding their flocks of sheep.

 ⁹ Suddenly, an angel of the Lord appeared among them, and the radiance of the Lord’s glory surrounded them. They were terrified, ¹⁰ but the angel reassured them. “Don’t be afraid!” he said. “I bring you good news that will bring great joy to all people. ¹¹ The Savior—yes, the Messiah, the Lord—has been born today in Bethlehem, the city of David! ¹² And you will recognize him by this sign: You will find a baby wrapped snugly in strips of cloth, lying in a manger.”

¹³ Suddenly, the angel was joined by a vast host of others—the armies of heaven—praising God and saying,

¹⁴ “Glory to God in highest heaven,
    and peace on earth to those with whom God is pleased.”

Observation

Good News! You will not find much Good News these days watching TV or reading the Newspaper! 

No, the News, the Headlines are all filled with news of terror bombings, murders, storms, or idiotic statements from our so-called leaders running for president. (Was that too harsh?) 

Do you want some really good news this Monday morning? “The Savior—yes, the Messiah, the Lord—has been born today in Bethlehem, the city of David!” (Luke 2:11) 

The Bible is full of Good News! It is full of hope! 

You and I just need to read it. 

We need to hold on to every promise that God has placed in His Word for us. 

Let’s take time today to read some of God’s Good News! 

Let’s let it change our lives!

Application

I will focus on the Good News I find in God’s Word. How about you?

Prayer

Heavenly Father, I never get tired of the Christmas story. It is filled with awe and wonder. It is amazing to think that You would leave Heaven and come down to live as a Human being and die a sinner’s death on a cross for someone like me. It is amazing. Thank You for allowing me the opportunity to hear the Good News about Jesus and for allowing me to become one of Your children. I don’t deserve Your love. I don’t deserve Your forgiveness. You are a God of mercy and grace to save someone like me!
