This month we turn our prayer focus toward the Advent of Christ and all that means for us.  Praise to Him who came and lived and died to rise again seems like the appropriate place to start.

 

We often hear the expression “Jesus is the reason for the season.”  How true.  Would we exchange gifts had He not given us the gift of salvation from our sins.? We would never use the manger as a centerpiece had it been empty.  And the Child would be just another baby had He not relinquished His seat at the right hand of God to put on flesh.

 

Jesus did all that for us.  And He deserves our endless praise.  Read the story of His birth in Luke chapter 2 to refresh yourself on the details.  For today’s prayer, we focus on the choir of angels who appeared to a bunch of dirty shepherds. One of them broke the news of the Messiah’s birth and then a host (I’m assuming that’s a lot.) joined in exclaiming:

 

“Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.” Luke 2:14 NIV
