Today's Devotion- We have found the Messiah

John 1:41-42he first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, "We have found the Messiah" (that is, the Christ). 42 And he brought him to Jesus.NIV

Before migrating here in Canada for more than 8 years now, December is a very lively and Christ centered month. Especially to us who came from a nation whpse only hope is God! As we adjust to the new home and country, we found that December is not the same as to where we came from, there we greet each other "Merry Christmas" in here we will be greeted "Happy Holiday" or "Seasons Greetings".

Its because our society here does not want to offend those who dont believed the Messiah. Well, not in the Scripture, for there, we found the record why this month is something to really celebrate. Its not because there are more sales in the malls, neither because we have lots of invitations for almost all special events, But simply because this is the celebration of the most awaited "Messiah". He has been prophesied thousand of years before His birth. Many still does not know He already came, come are still waiting for another one, which for them is better than Him. But who can meet up with His credentials? He is born of a virgin, fulfilled all prophesies in the book of the prophets and of course, rose from the dead!WE havew foun the Messiah!!! a proclaimed word of those who believed Him! Like the early apostles, our message to the world should be "We have found te Messiah!!! For many are still lost in hope, tortured by shame, inbondage of sin and livin in hopelessness!

This Christmas season, may the true celebration come to the heart of many if not to all! "The messiah has come" He is the center of this season!Christmas spirit is not in the month, its in the "Man" He came to bring salvation to all man kind, but like a gift we must accept Him, by believing in Him!But how can they know HIm, if we who knows Him are not as bold as those who were before us in Him. They were willing to give up their life for Him who gave His life us!May we also go to our friends, relatives and area of influence and tell them "We have found the Messiah" and bring them to Him!

Its our moral duty to bring people to Him, for that's what right minded people should do, after receiving so much blessing, like peace, health and freedom. Let's celebrate this season by proclaiming that "The Messiah has come". He is the Christ, the Savior, and whoso ever believes in Him shall not perish but have ever lasting life!!!Let's give to them what we have found!!! Christ Jesus "The Messiah"!

If you came across this message and have not yet found Him, well He is just a prayer away! He is alive and can give you what you are looking for. Actually only Him can give! The life ever lasting, the peace that passes all understanding, the joy overflowing and the acceptance with out condition! An unconditional love!!!

God bless and Till next time!!!
