Free Reading Plans and Devotionals related to 2 Samuel 7:12

As we enter the Christmas season, we are all eager to celebrate the birth of Jesus, the point in history where God descended into humanity to bring life to a broken world. Each day leading up to Christmas, we will provide an overview of the biblical significance of a location in Israel, along with a devotional prompt that will connect that location with the life of Jesus in Scripture.

Experience the greatest story ever told, the birth of Jesus, through the lens of the timeless Christmas carol, "O Holy Night." This advent devotional is great for the whole family to read together!

It was the most significant birth in the history of the world. The longed-for Messiah, the Savior, had come. And He was wrapped in cloths lying in a manger. Helping you reflect on these glorious truths is the goal of this Advent reading plan. Each day offers a Scripture reading, a brief reflection and summary of the passage, and a suggestion for prayer.

In this 4-week Advent Study, we will look at some of the Old Testament promises of the Savior and the humility that would characterize Him.
