Every Good and Perfect is From Abo

Wednesday, December 17, 2014

 “He was in the beginning with God.  All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.”  (John 1:2-3).   “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.”  (James 1:17).

Hey Gang: Dr. Adrian Rogers wrote in A Family Christmas Treasury. “As we rejoice in the arrival of the Christmas season, let us celebrate the constancy of the LIGHT that shined into the world when Jesus was born of the virgin Mary". 

John tells us that Jesus was “with God in the beginning”.  Furthermore, Jesus is the Creator God without whom “nothing was made that has been made” (John 1:1,3), Jesus is the eternal God!

God cannot change.  He declared through the prophet Malachi, “I am the Lord, I do not change” (Malachi; 3:6).  James made this wonderful statement: “Every good and perfect gift is from above coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows” (James 1:17).

We will soon welcome in a new year.  And since our world is a very uncertain and perilous place, we have this certainty to lean on: “His compassions (mercy) fail not.  They are new every morning: great is Your faithfulness” (Lamentations. 3:22-23).

Keep in mind we do have the constancy of Jesus to depend on for today, but someday we are going to be made just like Him.  "We know that when He appears, we will be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is" (I John 3:2).  We will bask in the direct rays of His glorious LIGHT forever!  Praise God for the constant LIGHT of the Lord Jesus Christ!  Does that get your thumper to thumping?

Soooo, to all my friends, if your name is not written in the Lamb's Book of Life and you are awaiting your invitation to the Marriage Feast of the Lamb, give yourself an eternal Christmas present right this moment! Fill that void in your chest cavity with One who loves you so dearly, that He is the sacrificial Lamb for your sins and mine- Yeshua Hamashiah. 

Blessings,
