been given through Him.
    The birth of Jesus is one of the greatest events in all history. It is only surpassed by His death and resurrection. His entrance into the world had spiritual impact that shook the realm of darkness beyond what anything else could. He exposed the lies of the enemy with His truth. He gave us a way to forever be close to God. He secured our hope. He loved us that much.
    We hear so much bad news today, but the truth about Jesus is always good news. And within the good news that we have in Him is the solution to all the bad news we see and hear.
    He is the solution to all bad news in our lives.
    And that is good news!

     
    Prayer of Love
    L ORD , I realize I can never receive all You have for me until I understand everything You did for me. Thank You that You, “the ruler over the kings of the earth,” loved me enough to wash me clean of all my sins by Your own blood (Revelation 1:5). Thank You that You are the living Word. You are my Savior. You have set me free from the consequences of my own sins, errors, mistakes, and ignorance. And You have made me to be a beloved child of God. Thank You that in You I find everything I need for life (1 Corinthians 8:6).
    Thank You that You came “as a light into the world” so that I would never have to live in darkness (John 12:46). Thank You for Your Holy Spirit in me, for Your Word says that “if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His” (Romans 8:9). But You have given me Your Spirit when I received You, and He is the seal and sign that I am Yours and You are with me always. Because of all You have done for me, I will live eternally with You and no one can change that.
    Thank You, Lord, that You share Yourself with me. You share Your love, peace, and power. You share Your Spirit and Your wholeness. You are the bread of heaven who feeds me life. You are the fountain of living water in me that never runs dry. You are the way, the truth, and the life. You are my foundation (1 Corinthians 3:11). You are the living Word and the door to eternal life. You are the good shepherd, and I hear the voice of Your Spirit leading me. Thank You that You are unchanging and I can forever depend on You (Hebrews 13:8).
    In Jesus’ name I pray.

    Read God’s Love Letter to You

    T he greatest love story on earth is written in the Bible.
    Actually, it is the Bible.
    The entire Bible is a record of God’s great love for us. One major sign of His love is that He gave us His Word.
    After I received the Lord I started going to church to hear the pastor teach from the Bible, and the Scriptures came alive to me right away. At the pastor’s encouragement I went out and bought my own Bible. I had opened up a Bible randomly a few times before but could not understand anything I read. Now, because I had opened my heart to the Lord, my spiritual eyes were opened as well, and I sensed God’s love in every word.
    It was far beyond anything I could have ever imagined.
    For years I had been searching in the spirit realm for some kind of meaning for my life and a purpose for my existence. Now I saw that I had been plunging into the dark side—the wrong side of that realm—and I needed to come into the light. When I read about
