“The Magi’s gifts were intensifiers of desire for Christ in much the same way fasting is for us. When you give this type of gift to Christ, it’s a way of saying, “the joy that I pursue is not the hope of getting rich with things from you. I have not come to you for what you might give me, but for yourself. And this desire I now intensify and demonstrate by giving up these things in the hope of enjoying you more and enjoying things less. By giving you what you do not need, and what I might enjoy, I am saying more earnestly and more authentically, “you are my treasure, not these things.”

There's a lot you can learn from Buddy the Elf. Besides packing a perfect snowball and being a maple syrup connoisseur, Buddy embraced his identity and God wants you to do the very same thing. Even when you make mistakes and you feel like you don’t measure up, nothing can change God's love and plan for your life. Do yourELF a favor and watch this encouraging, Christmas at the Movies message with Pastor Kyle to learn more about Buddy's adventure and how it relates to you. Link in bio. #AdventureChurch

Today's reading is one that we should not quickly pass over, but it is so important for us to stop and ask the Lord to search our own hearts. Today, let’s ask God to reveal any indifference in our heart that we may have towards Christ and worshipping Him. Secondly, let's ask Him if we have any hostility towards Him and His ways. Whatever it may be, God is waiting with open arms to embrace us in our journey, He gives mercy and grace when we repent and turn from those ways. He then gives us a heart that is willing to walk in step with Him.

We want so badly to be able to explain everything to the natural, human mind. Sometimes we forget that we serve the supernatural God. Although He uses nature and natural things to accomplish His plans (as we read last week in Luke when he brought Joseph and Mary to Bethlehem through a mandatory, government census), His ways are also supernatural. The star that led the magi to Bethlehem is one of the wonders of the Christmas story. Let it sink in today, that He is the God of our hearts, and the God of ALL creation, even the stars!

Christmas is all about the good news for everyone! Jesus is the King and Promise-Fulfiller for all the nations. God shows us through the story of the Magi that He sent a Savior for the whole world, not just His chosen people, Israel.

“And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger. “ And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased.” Luke 2:12-14

Every step of Jesus’ life on earth is filled with God’s purpose. Starting with his birth and the very first place Jesus laid his head was in an animal’s feeding trough. From day one, God came down into the lowest and most humble places of humanity to meet us where we were at. God could have seen to it that there was a room available in Bethlehem, but this marked the beginning of a life that was lived to serve and be poured out for all of humanity.

Day 4: “For God’s Ordinary People”
If you have ever felt ordinary and insignificant in a world of seven billion people, know that the God of the universe sees you. “For it is implicit in Scripture that all the mammoth political forces and all the giant industrial complexes, without their even knowing it, are being guided by God, not for their own sake but for the sake of God’s ordinary people- the ordinary Mary and the ordinary Joseph who have to be moved from Nazareth to Bethlehem. God wields an empire to bless his children.”

A promised act of God is as good as done. He doesn’t do things in our timing, or even in the way we would expect it, but He is always faithful to His Promises. If God has said that He would do something in His word, you can always rest in the fact that He will come through in His perfect timing.

It may be difficult for you to hear but you were never meant to be completely self-sufficient. God gave each one of us both strengths and weaknesses. It's in that weakness, or lack, that God gives us hope and develops our faith to live, not just in sufficiency, but in abundance. Watch this message from our Executive Pastor, Josh McNeely, to see how God gives more than enough for any situation. Link in bio. #AdventureChurch

God’s ways are so different than our own. The people He chooses are typically not the ones we would choose. Today we read about Mary & Elizabeth. They were both unknown, humble, every day women that God specifically picked to be a part of changing all of history. Ask God what you can learn today from their humility and willingness to walk the path that He had for them. ⠀

“Advent is for Adoring Jesus: It’s a season of preparation for that special day when we mark Emmanuel’s arrival - the coming of our eternal God in frail, human flesh. Don’t let Christmas find you unprepared - I mean, spiritually unprepared. Its joy and impact will be so much greater if you are ready!” ~Joy to the World⠀
⠀
In today’s Advent reading we are given 4 ways that we can prepare our hearts this Christmas season. We pray that your heart is encouraged and open to the love of God as we take time to prepare our hearts to receive our King.
