“They shall call His name Immanuel,†which translated means, “God with us.”
(Matthew 1:23, NASB)
“Prince of Peace.” (Isaiah 9:6)
“Let us be glad and rejoice today, because He has come. And let us remember the proclamation of the angel: “I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord” (Luke 2:10-11).
He comes to make His blessing flow,
Far as the curse does go.May our hearts go out to the unconverted people of foreign lands who have no blessed Christmas day. “Go and enjoy choice food and sweet drinks, and send some to those who have nothing prepared. This day is sacred to our Lord” (Nehemiah 8:10).”
