God Will Make It Happen

1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 23 Now may the God of peace make you holy in every way, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless until our Lord Jesus Christ comes again. 24 God will make this happen, for he who calls you is faithful.

As I read this passage through I see that God has made a way for holiness in our lives. He will keep us blameless. 
God is intent on making a way. He told Mary what was going to happen to her and she trusted God. He told Joseph through a dream what needed to happen and Joseph obeyed. He had declared that Jesus would be born in a manger and He used a heathen king, Ceaser, to send everybody back to their hometown. 
Joseph and Mary traveled 70 miles to Bethlehem. That is a long walk for a pregnant lady. But God was intent on making this happen. It was prophesied in Micah that the babe would be born in Bethlehem. God made it happen. 
There are promises in the word of God that have been made for us. As we trust and obey the Lord, God will see to it that those things we are holding on to will be fulfilled. God's word does not return to Him void. 
So don't lose hope today. Just know that if God said it, God will make it happen. 

God Bless you.

Mary did you Know

As I read the account in Luke 1 there were some things that really jumped out at me. They were who the angel declared Mary to be.

1. Pure: a virgin

When I look at this I think about how Jesus has made us pure by His precious blood.

2. He declares her as royalty: from the line of David

In Revelation Jesus has declared us kings and priest, so that makes us royalty also.

3. He speaks grace over her: rejoice oh highly favored one! The Lord is with you;blessed are you among women.

4. The Holy Spirit will come upon you

All these things that made Mary special enough to give birth to Jesus has come to each on of us who believe in Jesus. Just know that you are special to god and that He loves you. 

God bless you
