O Holy Night There’s something so special and powerful about this song. It seems to be sung every year, at every church, yet when compared to the other classics, it stands out. In my opinion, it perfectly depicts the reverence and simplicity of the birth of Jesus. This holy God, this incredible Being and Almighty Savior, was born in the most unlikely of places. There was nothing special about Bethlehem at that time. Israel was in disarray and under foreign rule, but this is where He chose to enter the world in a manger, surrounded by hay, animals, and just a few people. There wasn’t a large crowd. You would think that finally, after all this time, the Savior that the world had been waiting for would have made a fancy entrance, but it was quite the opposite. It says something about His character. When the rest of the world demands attention, our God comes with a still, small voice, to the most unlikely of places. This is where He chose to make His first impression. I pray that as you go about this Christmas season, you’ll lean back and remember Him for who He is. Is He not a God worth worshiping? Remember what He has done for you. Remember that in our darkest moment He is there for you. Challenge Remember to simply stop and worship Him. —Rob Estevez Worship with this live performance of O Holy Night with Worship Pastor Rob Estevez:
