WESTERN STAR OF IMMANUEL

WESTERN STAR OF IMMANUEL

 Matthew 2:1

 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem 2 and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star in the east and have come to worship him.”
--------------------------------------------
The three wise men are at one evening in their eastern territories. Behold, huh...a bright blue "sun" in the night sky. It is there running from the East to West. Ohh...!. 
At this exclamation they stepped forward to pursue the star west wise. 

The bright star Shone clearly. It was the western star of Immanuel.

Being ones who have studied stars and known their relationship to humanity and different births, they well knew that what was born this time is a never heard of thing. It is something they needed to reach out and behold it's glory.

Have you ever wondered what the wise men thought about before embarking on the great journey to the West? Well you may say that they thought what I have said above. But there is something deeper than that...

They could never have seen the wonderful future if they never set out. One thing I learn from them is a future that God sets clearly before our eyes to follow still needs us to set out on a journey to the "west"...a journey to the future. 
The future of the Messiah is here. His reign starts from here. He brings good tidings. 
Immanuel "God with us"... meaning the birth of Christ was one seal for the fact that we are never alone. There is a power that cares for us. There is a person that is there watching us. There is a kingdom that is for us. Immanuel;God with us.

He that was born by the virgin Mary is here with us. He has set His walls in us that no enemy can be able to overcome. He has set His great seal on us that no one can claim possession of us the chosen ones.

Celebrate the great miracle...Mary's little boy...the holy infant...the treasure in a manger...the first Noel. Ride the great ride to the star... through embracing the great salvation brought unto us. Follow Christ. Follow the star. 
                Merry Christmas

                     GOD BLESS YOU

HOLD IT

SUNDAY SERVICE  SERMON:                           HOLD IT   INTRO :  It is easy to go through life and feel embarrassed. And because of such embarrassment, it also easy to feel like throwing out something to compensate for your bad feelings. You feel you should throw out a word at someone, you feel you should throw off the relationship, you feel you should throw off the patience.  There is something that happens behind the scene that we never know about. And if we knew it, we would understand the power of holding it to our selves.   PROB : The problem we have is that we want to seek for compensation in short times, for revenge within no times...and never want to hold reactions for long.   PURP :  To enable us hold our emotions and anxieties in a world of intolerance.       >>> Christ was a man who faced a lot of persecution. He was always sought for by his enemies. They wanted him dead at all cost. Reaching a point of shamelessly paying one of his disciple to bet

THE GREAT BLISS

THE GREAT BLISS Isaiah 42:9  See, the former things have taken place, and new things I declare; before they spring into being I announce them to you.” -------------------------------------------- When there is something God is yet to do, He has to get tools within you to accomplish it. And one tool to use in you is the mind you got. God cannot accomplish great things when the mind and heart are stuck in former things...in former years. Before He made Mary have the great son He had to make her forget the former things and focus on the new things. When the Bible clearly says that God has a good plan for us and it assures us that God has no harmful plan for us; this means that what could be holding us back is not up to God!. He has the good plan already. But the nature of our minds may be holding onto the former and never letting it go. Because of the pains you had in the last year, you still revise that and experience pains again.  But there is something new. The Lord has tol
