Key Scripture: Luke 2:11 (KJV)

For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

Devotional

Christmas is not only a celebration of a baby in a manger—it is the announcement of rescue. God stepped into our world, into our mess, into our humanity, so we could be made whole.

In Jesus, God proves that He is not distant. He comes near. He enters the ordinary and fills it with glory. The Savior is born—not for perfect people, but for people who need mercy.

Today, let your reflection turn into worship. The greatest gift is not under a tree; it’s the presence of Christ in your life. Because He came, you are not alone. Because He came, hope has a name.

Merry Christmas. Let this day renew your faith: God keeps His promises, and His love is personal.
