Luke 2:7 NKJV
[7] And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped Him in swaddling cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.
Glory be to God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it.
Today’s scripture says that the Saviour of the world Jesus Christ, the long awaited Messiah was born in a manger. The Son of God was born in a manger and not a luxurious palace? Wow!
As the story of Jesus Christ birth was told, Joseph and Mary had to leave Nazareth to Bethlehem for a census that had been decreed. All the Inns were full and the only available place was the manger.
The birth of our Saviour Jesus Christ in a manger signifies humility and access to all mankind. The visit by the shepherds and not Kings and other Royals meant people from all walks of life are welcome to connect with Jesus Christ for salvation and eternal life.
May the significance of the birth of our Saviour Jesus Christ in a manger bring all of us to Him for eternal life. May we enjoy the free access at all times to the Most High God in Jesus Mighty name.Amen.
