The Emmanuel principle . . . God with us. How many times have you heard "He will never leave, nor forsake you?" To some this is just the polite Christian conversation when someone is in a crisis or what I call "preacher propaganda." For some reason this Christmas this scripture really hit me between the eyes.
Matt 1:23 "Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel," which is translated, "God with us." NKJV
Heb 13:5-6
5 Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you." 6 So we may boldly say:
"The LORD is my helper;I will not fear.What can man do to me?"NKJV
Guess what? Here is a thought for you to take with you. If He is with us whenever where ever and He never leaves nor forsakes us then guess what? Where ever we go He is with them. Yes, you need to let out a little salt, let out a little light since He is with you He is with them through you.
Reach out and touch somebody this Christmas!!
Merry Christmas
