    Using the popular song by Mariah Carey "All I Want For Christmas Is You" this Christmas Eve devotion focuses the fact that all God wanted for Christmas... is you.

    OPEN: There was a preacher who said that (when he was young) he was an only child - for the first few Christmases. As a result, he got the impression that Christmas was all about HIM, and he said “That was the essence of real joy. I thought Christmas was all about me, and all I wanted for ...read more

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jun 2, 2025
     | 345 views

    Contributed by T. W Jenkins on Mar 12, 2012
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,546 views

    Reading the twenty-third psalm can be misleading if we only open our ears to verse one. "The Lord is my Shepherd I shall not want". However, we must understand that the Lord, as our Shepherd, requires complete authority over the sheep. He must be in total

    1. I need His presence (He makes me to lie down in green pasture) This can only happen when I am in His presence. He's an interesting point about sheep being made to lie down. Sheep are very skittish animals. They are very Nervous and have to reach a high level of comfort ...read more

     | 5,639 views

    A simple reminder using the imagery of the shepherd to show how God is personally involved in our times of trouble to comfort us so we can proclaim, "I fear no evil; for you are with me!"

    MARTIN LUTHER ONCE COMMENTED THAT, "FAITH IS A MATTER OF PERSONAL PRONOUNS." IN OTHER WORDS, IT IS ONE THING TO SAY "THE LORD IS A SHEPHERD"; IT’S ANOTHER TO SAY, "THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD." THE IMAGE OF THE SHEPHERD HAS PROVIDED US WITH MANY POSITIVE THOUGHTS. JUST THE WORD ITSELF CARRIES WITH IT ...read more

    He was not an oil-on-canvas, not a die-cast martyr, a flannel graph figure, or a religious notion. He was man. He was God. And he still is, this Lamb of God. God was pleased to focus all his Love, and all his Truth into this caller and leader of fishemen, and tax collectors and ...read more
