Beloved of the Lord,
Greetings in Jesus wonderful name. God has been gracious to us in bringing us safely to the final month of 2008 in the year of open heavens and new beginnings.
Let us all therefore in the fullness of joy and gratitude to God give Him all praise, glory and honor for His goodness, mercy and favor.
In line with the spirit of the season, the month of December is the month of joy and by the grace of God, as we fellowship with one another and with the Holy Spirit (1Jn 1:7) and celebrate, the fullness of joy (Ps 16:11) that abounds in His presence shall be our portion in Jesus name.
When Jesus was born in the holy manger, in Bethlehem of Judea, over 2000 years ago, the angel of the Lord announced this news to shepherds (Lk 2:8-20) in the bush tending sheep, and revealed the new development to 3 wise men (Matt 2:1-12) who saw the star of the new born King and followed it to the Savior, coming with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh.
In this year of open heavens and new beginnings, I prophesy to you that the new thing God has began in you and I, the church of Jesus Christ, shall be noised abroad and wise men and shepherds will come from all over the world to see it and marvel.
Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Rejoice and be glad always.
Shalom,
Pastor Chris Ogali
