Text: Luke 2:10-14
Candlelight Service
"Then the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger." And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying: "Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!""

Celebration of Christmas reminds us that God still desires to save the world! And that not only did God provide, but He still provides!
John 6:35 New International Version (NIV)
Then Jesus declared, "I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.
The incarnation at Christmas shows the lengths God will go to show His desire to dwell among us, dwell in us.
Max Lucado pointed out that after 400 years of silence of God not speaking to His people...that silence was broken by the cry of a baby.
It's amazing that after 400 years of silence God interrupts with a move that would not only usher in a New Covenant but we find that the first two chapters of Luke are absolutely packed with prophecy fulfilled, supernatural miracles taking place. Angels announcing stuff all over the place to all kinds of people.... And we can become accustomed to to the story and lose the wonder of it if we are not careful
So many supernatural events & promises/prophecy fulfilled with the Christ-child coming.
In the account of Luke, Zechariah & Elizabeth are pregnant after seasons of infertility.
Mary...a virgin is pregnant by the power of the Holy Spirit.
An angel is the messenger to both...
