Advent - the Gift DevotionalSample

“Let Christ be born in your life”

But I do not consider my life of any account as dear to myself, so that I may finish my course and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify solemnly of the gospel of the grace of God. (Acts 20:24)

Do you realize Christmas happens over and over again? Every day, when people become Christians, Christ is born in hearts and lives. Christ is born over and over again! That’s the miracle of the new birth, grace and second life.  

I pray this Christmas will be the time in which some people say, “I want to receive the gift of Christ and let Him be born in me!”

Let me tell you something: You’ll never find Christmas under a tree until you find Christmas in your heart. This world will never satisfy anybody until we receive the gift that is from out of this world, God, wrapped up in human flesh, Emmanuel, God with us! That’s Christmas.
