Messiah on Mission
We’re so glad you are here! Thanks for checking out Sunday's message!
---- SUNDAY'S NOTES ----
But you, O Bethlehem Ephrathah, who are too little to be among the clans of Judah, from you shall come forth for me one who is to be ruler in Israel, whose coming forth is from of old, from ancient days. Micah 5:2 ESV
Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem, saying, “Where is he who has been born king of the Jews? For we saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.” Matthew 2:1-2 ESV
Jesus has always made Himself easy to find for those who are looking for Him!
And in the same region there were shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with great fear. And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. Luke 2:8-11 ESV
Jesus, the baby in the manger, was our Messiah on mission from the very beginning.
The Word became flesh and blood, and moved into the neighborhood. We saw His glory with our own eyes, the one-of-a-kind glory, like Father, like Son… John 1:14 MSG
For the Son of Man came to seek and save those who are lost. Luke 19:10 NLT
If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them wanders away, what will he do? Won’t he leave the ninety-nine others on the hills and go out to search for the one that is lost? Matthew 18:12 NLT
You will always be found by Jesus if you choose to look to Him.
Finding the missing is our mission too!
As for me, the nearness of God is my good; I have made the Lord GOD my refuge, That I may tell of all Your works. Psalm 73:28 NASB
That God would choose to be with us in every season and circumstance is Christmas’s greatest gift.
ESV
