I LOVE how our Bible Reading Plan is ALWAYS right on time! Look at Galatians 5:1 from today:
1 IN [this] freedom Christ has made us free [and completely liberated us]; stand fast then, and do not be hampered and held ensnared and submit again to a yoke of slavery [which you have once put off].
Jesus IS the Reason for this Season! We are celebrating not only His wonderful and miraculous birth to a willing virgin, but we are also celebrating everything that His wonderful life, death and resurrection have obtained FOR US! Amen! Here is a very old song from Hosanna called "Jesus, We Celebrate Your Victory" (along with other songs in a medley). His entire story is essential to OUR victory! Know it, know Him, and celebrate!
Jesus, we celebrate
Your victory
Jesus, we revel
In Your love
Jesus, we rejoice
You've set us free
Jesus, Your death
Has brought us life
It was for freedom
That Christ has
Set us free
No longer to be subject
To a yoke of slavery
So we're rejoicing
In God's victory
Our hearts responding
To His love
(His love!)
(Repeat chorus)
His Spirit in us
Releases us from fear
And the way
To Him is open
With boldness
We draw near
And in His presence
Our problems disappear
Our hearts responding
To His love
(His love!)
(Repeat chorus twice)
Jesus, Your death
Has brought us life
Jesus, Your death
Has brought us life
Blessed be the Lord
God of Israel
Blessed be the Lord
God of hosts
Blessed be His glorious name
Forevermore
And let the whole earth
Be filled with His glory
(Repeat all)
(Repeat 2nd Chorus)
(Repeat all)
And let the whole earth
Be filled with His glory
And let the whole earth
Be filled with His glory
He has clothed us with His righteousness
Covered us with His great love
He has showered us with mercy
And we delight to know the
Glorious favor
Wondrous favor of God
We rejoice in the grace of God
Poured upon our lives
Loving kindness has come to us
Because of Jesus Christ
We rejoice in the grace of God
Our hearts overflow
What a joy to know the grace of God
He's brought us into His family
Made us heirs with His own Son
All good things He freely gives to us
We cannot conceive what
God's preparing
God's preparing for us
Your victory
Jesus, we revel
In Your love
Jesus, we rejoice
You've set us free
Jesus, Your death
Has brought us life
It was for freedom
That Christ has
Set us free
No longer to be subject
To a yoke of slavery
So we're rejoicing
In God's victory
Our hearts responding
To His love
(His love!)
(Repeat chorus)
His Spirit in us
Releases us from fear
And the way
To Him is open
With boldness
We draw near
And in His presence
Our problems disappear
