Christmas Begins with ChristSample

The promises shared by Isaiah are un-ending, even surpassing the achievements by Israel's most beloved King David. This future is only made possible through Gods commitment and sacrificial intervention and we, as members of His church, are a way for that justice and righteousness to be expressed. As Christians we believe that Jesus Christ is Lord, pledge again to follow Jesus Christ as Lord. His government should have no limits in our lives. He should rule over our hearts and hopes with justice and righteousness. Spend some time in quiet asking God what areas you can be bringing His hope and justice to those around you. Write these down and keep them in prayer asking God for opportunities to be sharers of hope and light. Consider being part of Tearfund's One Voice prayer week 2012, an opportunity to reflect, pray and act around issues of global poverty and injustice.
