CELEBRATING CHRISTMAS WITH UNDERSTANDING
Isaiah 9:6

It is possible to do a thing and not know why you are doing it. You
might be celebrating Christmas without understanding the real
reason for celebrating.
From the passage reading, His name shall be called;
• Wonderful – He is a wonderful father;
• Counsellor – that means He would never give you a wrong
counsel nor lead you astray;
• The Mighty God- He will make you mighty;
• Everlasting Father – Whatever He has done in your life will be
permanent;
• Prince of Peace – When He has blessed you, your life cannot be
in pieces.
Christmas means different things to different people. To some, it
is a period to:
1. To relax or it is a holiday period.
2. To enjoy one – self.
3. Buy and wear new clothes.
4. Being in fun places etc.
However, the real reason we are celebrating is:
1. God’s Miracle: – Jesus, the subject of Christmas was born
through God’s miracle.
His birth was not an ordinary birth. When celebrating
Christmas, know that we are celebrating the uniqueness of
God. He is a unique God; He can’t be compared to any other
gods (Matthew 1:20). No other person has ever been
conceived by the Holy Ghost.
This is what makes God stand out and what makes Him
distinct. Christmas should remind us that we serve a God of
miracle.
Are you in need of a miracle? God can give it to you. May
this Christmas bring your miracle. His miracle can conquer
any natural order of things; his miracle brings joy, peace,
happiness, satisfaction etc.
2. In celebrating Christmas, we are celebrating a life of
purpose. Jesus was not born for the sake of being born
(Matthew 1:21). He was born for a purpose. When we
celebrate Christmas, we should bear in mind that we are
celebrating a life of purpose. Jesus knew His purpose (Luke
19:10). He pursued his purpose vigorously and achieved His
purpose. He came to destroy the works of the devil (1 John
3:8). He came to bring light.
Christmas is a time to remind us of our purpose on earth.
Ask yourself, ‘what is your purpose on earth and diligently
try to fulfill it .
Jesus came to reconnect the disconnected and to connect
those who have never been connected. If you are
disconnected from Him, you are not celebrating the true
reason about Christmas. Christ wasn’t born for us to eat rice
or wear new clothes but for us to be reconnected to God.
3. When we celebrate Christmas, we celebrate a life of
Sacrifice. It is a period to experience the sacrifice of the birth
and life of Jesus. Joseph had to sacrifice His feelings, thought and
desire for the for the will of God (Matthew 1:18-24). Joseph and
Mary sacrificed to make sure Jesus was born (Matthew 2:13 – 15).
What’s your level of sacrifice? Jesus sacrificed by paying the
ultimate price (John 19:20). We ought to sacrifice worldly
pleasures for righteousness. Sacrifice your time to be in church or
to evangelize.
PRAYER POINT:
Father in every way I have not been living a life of sacrifice, I am
very sorry, please help me to live a life of sacrifice.
