Away In A Manger—In You! Mary a devout worshiper of God, favored among woman, was overshadowed by the Holy Spirit, and Seed was sown—not from natural seed, but Spiritual Seed (1 Peter 1:23 AMPC). In the days of Jesus’ Birth, Rome was filled with a spirit of tyrannical politicians dipping their hands in with “religious” leaders in order to keep a tight grip of control upon the people of the land—especially Gods People. There was no room in the inn, so the King—our Savior—Creator all things was born in a lowly, smelly, animal stable. He was wrapped in swaddling clothes (strips of cloth) as a newborn babe, and likely placed in a stone manger that held food for animals. A Star shone brightly in the dark night sky, trumpeting the Birth of their Savior, and leading the way for wisemen to seek Him. Still today, humble, lowly, maidservants and menservants like Mary and Joseph (1 Corinthians 1:26-31), knowing their desperate need for a Savior, intimately worship their Creator and King, proclaiming, “Let it be done to me according to what you have said.” A Pure Seed falling straight from heaven, sown into barn-like hearts of men (Jeremiah 17:9, Mark 7:21-23, Romans 1:21-32, Romans 3:10-20). No room in the inn back then, He chose a place in stone cold hearts of men (mankind). Knowing He’d make all things New—a Spiritual Garden Created just for you (Revelation 21:5, 2 Corinthians 5:17)! The Seed of Life sown into a cold, dark tomb, has now been transformed into a Glorious womb (Ezekiel 36:26, Acts 1:8)! He’s taken our filthy rags and grave clothes (Isaiah 64:6, John 11:44), and graciously robed us in HIS Righteousness and “Seamless” Oneness, as kings and priests in Him (Exodus 28:32, Revelation 1:6, John 19:23-24)! He’s the Bright Morning Star in us—through us, Who Lights the Way of Truth, as the Lie struggles to retain its grip on mankind, keeping them cloaked in darkness (John 1:5, John 3:19-21, Revelation 22:16). So as it was—it is today! Many still seek to destroy the Precious Seed, and wisemen still seek Him, presenting gifts of worship, prayer, and burial (sacrifice). So let’s humble ourselves in worship (as Mary) and believe, receive, and conceive His Seed—The Tree of Life! He is the Vine and you are the branches (John 15:5). May you bear good Fruit that remains for His Glory (John 15:16)! Sow into Graves and He shall produce Gardens! Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; (Genesis 1:28). Jesus prayed in a physical garden and then was laid in a physical garden (Matthew 26:36-42, John 19:40-41). Jesus, the Pure, Holy, Spotless Lamb, Who was crucified and became sin—your sin, now prays in a Spiritual Garden and lays in a Spiritual Garden in a “Manger” in you! Whosoever believes on Him and receives Him is welcome to come into His Garden—A Land flowing with milk (purity) and honey (Divine Nature)! This is the New Land—Your Promise Land, now within you (Matthew 13:18-23, Song of Solomon 4:16, Song of Solomon 5:1)! This season can be very bitter, very sweet, or both. I pray you seek out His Light in your darkness, and ask Jesus inn~to your heart, and walk in the Life you were truly born for! The Life God intended for you was deceitfully robbed from you in the Garden of Eden (John 10:10). This was not God’s choice, but man’s (Genesis 3:1-11). Thank God, He had a plan! This natural life will NEVER satisfy you fully, for you have a spirit, a soul, and live in a body. There’s only One Who can truly satisfy and exchange your human spirit with a Supernatural One, and His Name is Jesus—Prince of Peace! He’ll lift your head and move you forward in the direction of a Brand New Life! No longer looking in the rear view mirror of past hurts, failures, regrets, etc., for He loves you with an everlasting Love! This is Christmas—The Greatest Gift of All! In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it (John 1:1). Then the angel said to them, Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be to all people ( Luke 2:10). Merry Christmas!🌟 https://youtu.be/r5w0RQupIBU?si=cwKuPqX3txxL0WHw
