DAILY PRAYER (BY SPURGEON)

Remember all your church throughout the whole world. Prosper missionary operations. Be with any ministers or missionaries that are depressed for lack of success. Be with any that are rejoicing because of success. May each heart be kept in a right state, so that you might use your servants to the utmost of possibility.

Amen.

VERSE OF THE DAY (COMMENTARY BY SPURGEON)

“I will declare the LORD’s decree. He said to me, ‘You are my Son; today I have become your Father.’” (Psalm 2:7)

This Psalm wears something of a dramatic form, for now another person is introduced as speaking. We have looked into the counsel-chamber of the wicked, and to the throne of God, and now we behold the Anointed declaring his rights of sovereignty, and warning the traitors of their doom.

God has laughed at the counsel and ravings of the wicked, and now Christ the Anointed himself comes forward, as the Risen Redeemer, “declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead” (Romans 1:4).

Celebrate Christmas with Confidence

In this wonderful season, we celebrate the birth of Jesus. But, how do we know that Jesus was really born at all? Can we really believe that the Son of God was born in a manger… to a virgin, no less?!

Friends, YES, we CAN really believe that! And there are good reasons to believe it, as well!

If you want to increase your confidence in the Christmas story this week, check out Is Christmas Unbelievable? by apologist Rebecca McLaughlin. This book asks and answers four tough questions about the Christmas story.

This book is super short (just 64 pages), so you can read it this week and be equipped to better defend your faith this month to non-Christian friends and family members.

Grab a copy of Is Christmas Unbelievable? and celebrate with confidence this Christmas. (You can also grab a copy for a non-Christian you know!)
