Gods chosen people

longed for their Deliverer.

The days were dark;

oppression filled the land.

Into this scene came Holy Word

who took on flesh,

And those with eyesto see, said of this Man:


21/92

A Child is born,

beyond all our imaginings;

A Child is born,

fulfilling prophecy.

And by His life,

the world will see the face of God;

And by His death,well be forgiven and set free.


22/92

The earth is tired;

creation longs to be made new,

And likewise, we

were made for more than this,

For in our hearts

lie pieces of eternity

To be awakenedsoon with heavens kiss.


23/92

A Child is born

beyond our wildest hopes and dreams;

A Child is born

redeeming history,

And by His life,

the world has seen the face of God,

And by His death,were forgiven and set free!


24/92

By His new life,

were forgiven and set free!

Set free!A Child Is Born

Advent Reading

Gods Promise: It Will Happen

in Bethlehem


27/92

Last week we lit the second advent candle. We

were reminded of the Gods faithfulness to his

promises, and their fulfillment in Immanuel. Thisweek we light the third advent candle, and see

Gods promise that the Messiah would be born

in Bethlehem.


28/92

Micah 5:1-2

Now muster your troops, O daughter of troops;

siege is laid against us; with a rod they strike the

judge of Israel on the cheek. But you, OBethlehem Ephrathah, who are too little to be

among the clans of Judah, from you shall come

forth for me one who is to be ruler in Israel,

whose coming forth is from of old, from ancientdays.


29/92

A boy named David was born in the district of

Ephrathah in Bethlehem and grew up tending

his father Jesses sheep. When the time came

for Samuel to anoint a new king over Israel, Godsent him to Jesses house to anoint one of his

sons. The unlikely ruler would be David. He

would become the greatest king of Israel, and

Bethlehem is now known as the City of David.


30/92

Long after Davids reign, Micah foretold thatGod would again choose a king from

Bethlehem, in the land of Ephrathah. Many

years would pass before wise men from the East

followed a star in search of the newborn king ofthe Jews. After meeting with these men, King

Herod called for the scribes and chief priests

and asked them what they knew. These

religious leaders directed Herods attention to

Micahs prophecy, and to Bethlehem.


31/92

Gods promise was fulfilled, as a ruler would

again come from this insignificant town andonce again Gods choice involved the most

unlikely beginninga baby, born in a stable.

What Child is this Who, laid to rest

On Marys lap is sleeping?Whom angels greet

with anthems sweet

While shepherds watch are keeping?This, this is Christ the King

Whom shepherds guard

and angels singHaste, haste, to bring Him laud

The Babe, the Son of Mary


39/92

Why lies He in such mean estateWhere ox and lamb are feeding?

Good Christian, fear, for sinners here

The silent Word is pleadingNails, spear shall pierce Him through

The cross be borne for me, for you

Hail, hail the Word made fleshThe Babe, the Son of Mary


40/92

So bring Him incense, gold and myrrhCome peasant, king to own Him

The King of kings salvation brings

Let loving hearts enthrone Him

And she gave birth to her firstborn son andwrapped him in swaddling cloths and laid him in

a manger, because there was no place for them

in the inn. And in the same region there were

shepherds out in the field, keeping watch overtheir flock by night. And an angel of the Lord

appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord

shone around them, and they were filled with

great fear.
