Christmas message 2020

Hello everyone!

I hope this video finds you well, where ever you are. Drop me a message (public or private) and let me know where you are from! I’m glad you are here! Below is a recap of this 30 minute video with some Bible verse references to look up and read on your own. Pray that God would help you to discern what is True. Also, let me know how I can pray with you in your journey of getting to know God or growing deeper with God in every area that He would really become Lord of your life. It’s what I’m here to do and I’m serious about it. Let’s talk!

(Note: I spent YEARS figuring out just who IS God?? And also what does He want from and what does He say about ME? What does this mean for my life, every area of my life, as a Christian? I’m still growing even today in my relationship with the Lord. I’m so glad my salvation isn’t based on MY efforts (or lack of effort) but solely on what Jesus did. See Ephesians 2:8-9 https://my.bible.com/bible/59/EPH.2.8-9.ESV)

Philippians 2:5-11 Christ left us many examples of his humility…
https://my.bible.com/bible/59/PHP.2.5-11.ESV Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Lord help us to do the same and follow in His footsteps through the help of the Holy Spirit, the Helper (see John 14:25-26 https://my.bible.com/bible/59/JHN.14.25-26.ESV ), in our lives.
