Luke 2:6-7 “…And while they were there, the time came for her delivery, and she gave birth to her Son, her Firstborn; and she wrapped Him in swaddling clothes and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room or place for them in the inn…” – Luke 2:6-7 (AMPC)
And Jesus was born!
Jesus the king of kings and Lord of Lords was not born in a mansion, nor was He born to wealthy parents. He was born of lowly means in a stable because there was no room for Him in the inn. He didn’t come here to be treated like a king, or someone of noble standing. He didn’t come here to live in a mansion or live a life of ease. He came to save the lost—which is all mankind.
So, let us celebrate the Lord and thank Him for the sacrifice He made in leaving His throne in glory, to come as an ordinary person like you and me, and then giving up His life for us.
Jesus was born on Christmas day. For this very reason, we celebrate Christmas.
