Emmanuel is with us!
Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us. Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him and took unto him his wife: And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS.
Matthew 1:23-25
Years has gone and years will come, rather we live or die. Nothing stops time, it is consistent. In our country of these United States of America history has been forever changing still is changing. No man can stop change it is inevitable. Emmanuel being interpreted is God with us. He is the only one who changes not. He is our hope. Matters not what we may encounter this new year God is with us. He is the only constant. It is good to know that we have an abiding persistent in our life. Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever. Hebrew 13:8
Many have spoken words of doubt and defeat still we stand as one nation under God indivisible with liberty and justice for all. Although being a statement of controversy, it does not change the fact there is but one God who stands over every nation. He is with us. If that nation professes that God is his Lord and Jesus Christ is Savior, the Holy Ghost is his Comforter. He is protected. Hear a truth rather one confesses or not God is yet faithful. We may deny him. There is one thing that will never change If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself. Hallelujah! EMMANUEL IS WITH US!
Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; And the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance. The Lord looketh from heaven; He beholdeth all the sons of men. From the place of his habitation he looketh Upon all the inhabitants of the earth. Psalm 33:12-14.
Be calm, Emmanuel is with us to help us in the time of trouble. God promise to Abraham stands sure today as it did on yesterday. And I will bless them that bless thee and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. Genesis 12:3
As I get a glimpse of a few things that will take place in 2024, I would like to encourage you. Fear not, Emmanuel is with us. He will not leave us alone. There will be times when circumstances may be overwhelming, do not get discouraged Emmanuel is on the scene.
Be not overly concerned about Israel God has spoken to always provide for her. Her track record is always pulling away from God and choosing idols. O’ but when she repents God restores her every time. All the nations who align themselves to help her God blesses them. Hear what the Prophet Malachi says in Chapter 3:6 For I am the Lord, I change not; Therefore, ye sons of Jacob are not consumed. This is a promise from the Lord, EMMANUEL IS WITH THEM AS HE IS WITH US.
I was so moved within my heart as I read and to come to the knowledge of my Lord and Savior the Christ of Nazareth. He loves all people. He gave his life for all people. There is no respecter of persons in him. He loves all and gave himself as a ransom for all.
What is God saying in 2024? EMMANUEL IS WITH US. What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? Romans 8:31-32
