Unwrapping Peace: The Advent Journey - Part 2
Update: 2023-12-10
Description
Political Upheaval, religious expectations, and spiritual desperation were the backdrop for God's divine intervention of profound significance.
Two miraculous births, one the Messiah and the other a forerunner; both signaling God's favor being poured out in His commitment to bringing peace to His creation.
The journey from anticipation to the fulfillment of Israel's Messiah in the birth of Christ is a narrative that underscores the transformative power of Christ's peace, that even in the most challenging circumstances, the power of Christ's peace can bring about transformative change. This 'peace' begins with the reception of God's plan in Christ and anticipation God answers prayer in Jesus' name.
We are all forerunners, testifying to the paths God has made right. God is 'birthing' His good will and purpose in your life to the glory of His name, as you look to Jesus' the light of life.
In this message, we delve into the origin of Christ's forerunner John the Baptist, along with the practical reminder for Christians that amid chaos, of prayers appearing to be unanswered, do not lose heart. God’s favor is flowing to you in these days—your an active participant in God's redemptive story.
Encountering [His] transformative peace (calm, wholeness, restoration), this change: begins with 1) reception of God's plan in Jesus Christ and 2) living with ongoing anticipation of God’s (wonder) working power at work in and through our life, as forerunners 3) with Spirit-empowered ‘witness’ - ‘filling’ us with God’s kingdom purposes, as we await Christ’s return.
