Luke 1:31-33 (NLT)

“He will be very great and will be called the Son

of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne

of his ancestor David. And he will reign over Israel

forever; his Kingdom will never end!”

Now that is a powerful statement! We have been led to believe that our “religion” is the most insignificant and contradictory one out there. We have been pushed into hiding. We have allowed other religions to step all over our beliefs and we’ve said nothing. Why? Fear has gotten a hold of some people. I think it’s time for you to come out of the shadows of fear and embrace your belief in the Almighty God. You see, He’s no prophet or just a good man, He was and is the Great One, the Son of the Most High and He has a Kingdom that WILL NEVER END! Now, I know you were led to believe that He was some weak person who couldn’t hold it together or some crazy person dying on a cross. That all may not mean much to you, oh but you miss out on what’s important. You see the cross, revealed the power behind this Man. If death couldn’t hold Him back, what can? He defeated the devil, sin, sickness, poverty, death, and everything that you’re afraid of.

Why is it that we who know the Truth, hide from all the lies that are around us? I wish you would really believe in the Word of God to the point where you wouldn’t care what others would say about you. Christians are the only ones that everyone tries to shut. We can talk about every other religion and study it, but when it comes to God, its frown upon. The problem with truth is that you’re not always going to like what it has to say. Don’t just come from hiding on Sundays, let everyone know in this Great God you serve. Speak of His goodness. Let the world know that He is alive and has overcome every single obstacle. This is not just history, its relevant to our lives today. Who God is and what He has to say is important to our lives. You can’t just push this under the rug and forget about it. One day you will come face to face with your Maker. I hope you won’t let the culture bury that faith in God. Allow Him to be alive in your life. Let Him be the Great One in your life. Allow His kingdom to reign in you. Never be ashamed of who He really is. He didn’t just die, He resurrected from the dead. Now that is good news! Don’t get caught up in all the lies and confusion out there. Believe in God and in His Word. He can do Great things in you, just believe.
