Gene’s Daily Scriptural Postings.
“For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of His government and peace. There will be no end, Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, To order it and establish it with judgment and justice From that time forward, even forever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.”

AUDIO VERSIONGIVE THE GREATEST GIFT YOU CAN GIVEChristmas is not about shopping or presents; it is not about the gifts wrapped under the tree. Instead, Christmas is about the gift given on the tree when Jesus died for our sins and gave us each the gift of eternal life.
“For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of His government and peace. There will be no end, Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, To order it and establish it with judgment and justice From that time forward, even forever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.” Isaiah 9:6-7
As we look around at our world today, we realize that part of today's Bible verses' promise has not been fulfilled yet. The good news is that one day Jesus will return, and Jesus will establish His kingdom on earth, and it will be ruled by God Himself.
Before Jesus could take the world's cares upon His shoulders, He had to take the cross upon His shoulder. Before Jesus could wear the crown of glory as the King of Kings, He had to wear the crown of thorns and give His life as a sacrifice for the world's sins.
The first time a star marked Jesus' arrival, but the next time Jesus comes, the heavens will roll back, all of the stars will fall from the sky, and Jesus Himself will light the sky.
God came near to us so we can come near to Him and give Him our life purpose and meaning, to forgive us of our sins, and to give us the hope of heaven beyond the grave.
It is life-changing. Pass it on this Christmas and give the greatest gift you can give.
Whose life can you change today?Do you need Prayer? We are here to pray with you.
“Heavenly Father, as I celebrate this Christmas, I want to walk in the knowledge of the real truth and purpose of Christmas. If Jesus had not been born, where would I be? Jesus made the way for my salvation, and I now have the ability to give the best and most perfect gift of all. It is sharing Jesus with others so they can know the true life You have provided through Your Son. Thank You, Father, for life everlasting in You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.”
