Looking 4 Healing?
The aftermath of Christmas!
This is always the time of the year when most people discover they have got a serious illness and its also the time to seek more than medical help, since we are being told to end our lifestyle and cut back on the drink, the sugar, salt, grease and smoking?
But despite all the negative news we might hear, their is always the hope that God will have mercy on us and heal us from our foolishness!
Sadly not everyone gets healed and no one knows why this is, but many who discount healing get healed and others also come to Salvation?
Proverbs 15:4, Revelation 2:7, 22:2, 14-19.

‘Happy New Year 2025?
The arrival of the Magi!
Travelers from the gentile world came with their respective gifts to the King of Israel and the savior of the world, but they also came to worship Him!
Most people like a good chin wag a dance and to praise God if we have the faith to believe, others are to conservative or proud to tap or dance, even to sin a tune or to worship?
For many this is the end of the Christmas story, but it is the beginning of a reign that continues to this day and will until he returns to establish the Kingdom of Israel and to gather all the believers that make up the Ekklesia!
Matthew 2:1-16, Luke 6:23, John 4:22-23, 5:35 Acts 7:7.

The Shepherds?
Sleeping under the trees!
In the caring for livestock one needs to be out with them, sometimes in all weathers and you need to try to keep warm and dry as these men were doing in the field, when the were startled by the Glory of God or in Hebrew the ‘Shekinah, where Heaven and Earth met!
This Glory was only in times past reserved for a few, the prophets, the Patriarchs and the priests who served in the Temple in Jerusalem, but now it was to be seen by simple men, the base of society of whom King David once was as a shepherd boy!
The announcement of the promised Messiah was also a revelation that not only could Israel be saved, but as the Savior the gentiles too would know God as the Jews had?
Luke 2:8-20, Exodus 40:34-38, Leviticus 9:23, Numbers 14:10, Daniel 2:37.

The Immaculate Conception!
The virgin birth of Jesus!
The world is always quick to move in on the Christian faith and try to tear it down, claiming that science is the new religion to prove things true over the myth of the old?
But they always get it wrong, because they lack faith and belief and fail to see the power of God and how He works with us humans!
Mary was chosen and she begat the God-man child, by the power of the Holy Ghost/Spirit and then she was healed to be a virgin for her husband Joseph to go on and have a family, so that no laws were broken under Judaism!
Matthew 1:20, Luke 1:68-72, 2:21, John 1:1-5, Acts 13:23, 32-33, Hebrews 9:25-28, 10:10.

Registration!
Happened to Jesus too.
Many governments are involved today in keeping travelling communities settled and registered and for some to have an address is of great advantage, but for others it is not?
The Romans called for a census of Israel and it was to be one of many for the region and throughout the rest of the empire, later Europe and the Britons would understand that they were loosing their liberty!
Luke 2:1-6, Matthew 22:19-22, Acts 5:37.

Overcoming war and Evil?
Memorialism!
Halloween is about the time of the pagan and the dead coming back to visit the living, Guy Fawkes is the 17th Century Bin Laden being foiled and then the nation gathers to remember the dead of the two world-wars and other conflicts that was part of the British Empire and Commonwealth?
For some they are great traditions to be kept and cherished, but they all represent death and the further we move away from the events, they have become less solemn and more of an event!
But us who have faith must see the great opportunity to share Jesus, that His light overcomes the darkness and that Good will always prevail over evil, wicked people and wrong motivation will neither stay nor last and not all as it appears in the world to be good and right it, since the world is full of delusion?
Amos 5:4, John 3:3, 14-21, Romans 6:22-23, 10:9-10, 12, Hebrews 4:12-13, 9:26-27, Revelation 3:20.

The tree of life and Righteousness!
Bearing good Fruit?
Wisdom is life says the writer of the proverbs and in the New Testament Matthew records Jesus saying, ‘That doing the right things bring blessings and salvation, something that is required of us!
We live in an ever turbulent society, were things are not getting better, but are going from bad to worse and in this last age this the way it is to go?
But as believers God has given to us promises in His word to hold on too!
Proverbs 3:18, 11:3, 13:1, 15:4, 27:11, Matthew 7:17-19.

Getting pushed On!
Please leave Us?
When one is a traveler of many and any type the rich people of the area will want us to move on and at times force outside that of the law has been used!
But as believers we should expect to be rejected by all and not worry about but take some advice from our lord to shake the dust of our feet and not return there!
If we are struggling then we should know that man may have side-lined us, but not God for it is He who grants us the inner peace of Jesus?
Psalm 118:13, Mark 6:11, Luke 9:5, John 14:27.
