Blessed Is He Who Comes

Matthew 21:9 NKJV

"Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!"

Praise God! The world of humanity that had been separated from God and unable to approach Him except indirectly through the Jewish sacrifices and ceremonies was now invited to draw near and be reconciled directly to Him through this Baby Who had invaded time and space to be born!...

Real meaning to your life is found in the glorious dawn of God's story, which breaks into full revelation in the Person of Jesus Christ. What an astounding truth! What a life changing message!

Because He emptied Himself of all but love,
you can be filled.

Because His body was broken,
your life can be whole.

Because His blood was shed,
your sin can be forgiven.

Because He submitted to injustice,
you can forgive.

Because He finished His Father's work,
your life has worth.

Because He was forsaken,
you will never be alone.

Because He was buried,
you can be raised.

Because He lives,
you don't have to be afraid.

Because He reached down to you,
you don't have to work your way up to Him.

Because His promises are always true,
you can have hope!
