Following Jesus at Christmas

DAY 17 OF 25

Maybe you’ve read or heard this verse (John 3:16) many times, but I never grow tired of it. It’s the centerpiece of Christmas and the Gospel. We are so loved that He came to save us and give us eternal life! It’s important to see in this verse that God’s main reason for coming to earth wasn’t because He was angry at the sin of humanity, but that He was moved by love to rescue us from the effects of our sin. Our heavenly Father deeply and fully loves you and me. Whenever the enemy tries to tell you that you’re an accident or unvaluable, go back to this verse and be encouraged by His design and heart for all of us. The world will try to convince you that you are an accident that randomly came to be, but God clearly declares His love and purpose for all humanity.

Reflection

  • Do I see myself as worthy of Jesus coming to earth?
  • Do I live like He’s for me and gave everything to show His love by coming to earth and defeating death for me?

About this Plan

Following Jesus at Christmas

Over the next twenty-five days, let’s celebrate the entrance of Jesus and the salvation He purchased. Like Mary did so many years ago, let’s make room for Jesus in our lives by making daily space and time for His Word. We encourage you to read the verse each day and reflect on Jesus’ character and nature. You’ll find that the more you study the Word of God, the more your life will begin to look like Jesus! This devotional will reflect on the humble and triumphant entrance of our Prince of Peace, Savior, Lord, and King.
