Matthew 1:18-25

Luke 1:68-75 *Ancient prophecy about the impact of Messiah.

A message from the series “Not Part of a Series.” You Shall Call Him Yeshua
Luke 1:26-38

Main Point
This Child conceived in Mary by the Holy Spirit will be called Jesus (Yeshua) = ‘Yahweh saves, or Yahweh our Salvation’

‘Salvation’ (root word ‘sodzo’) = to be saved, made whole. (1:69,71)

How is it that this Jesus will make us whole?
1. This Child Yeshua will be divinely unique. (verse 32)
‘He will be great and will be called Son of the Most High.’

Isaiah 7:14 Immanuel = ‘God with us’

Isaiah 9:6-7 ‘He shall reign forever and ever.”

2. This Child Yeshua will reign – His kingdom will never end.
(verse 33)

Micah 5:2 ‘His origins are of old, from ancient times.’

Revelation 11:15 ‘The world has now become the Kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ…’

Philippians 2:9-11

This is God’s Christmas gift for you! Have you received Him and His salvation (wholeness), and is He reigning in your life?

A message from the series “Not Part of a Series.” So Send I You!
John 20:19-23

Main Point
As the Father sent Jesus to reveal the Father to us, so Jesus sends us into the world to share His Love in the power of the Holy Spirit!

v. 21 Jesus was Love, Grace & Truth by the Father into the world!

John 6:38 “For I have come down from heaven to do the will of God who sent me, not to do my own will.” (NLT)

1. Jesus revealed God’s to us!

John 1:14

John 3:16-17

2. We are sent into the world to share that Love, Grace & Truth with everyone around us!

*We can only do this through the enabling power of the Holy Spirit!

Acts 1:8

A message from the series “Not Part of a Series.” Revival Praying
II Chronicles 7:13-15

Main point: If we want revival, then we must pray with revival prayer – which is God’s people, humble themselves, seek His Face, and turn from our wicked ways, then God will hear.

v.14 “If my people, who are called by My Name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face…”

1st Father God is calling to His people – those called by His Name (Yahweh Shua = Yashua = Jesus!)

Acts 4:12 preached about Jesus Christ – “Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other Name under heaven given to men, by which we must be saved.” Do you know Jesus Christ?

2nd Father God is calling His people to humble themselves.

Daniel 2:21 “He determines the course of world events, He removes Kings and sets others in their place…”

James 4:6 “He gives us more grace that is why the scripture says: God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble… 10 Humble yourselves before the Lord and he will lift you up.” Are you humbling yourself before our mighty God?

3rd Father God calls us, His people, to pray & seek His face (lit. ‘in front of, in the presence of) = to seek God Himself!

4th Father God calls us to turn from our wicked ways… The call of God to His people has not changed – II Tim. 2:19

If my people will do this “…then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” -God
