Topic: START SMALL, END BIG.
Bible Reading: Isaiah 53:1-3, Ephesians 4:8-10, Job 8:7.
The birth of our Lord Jesus Christ, is a great lesson for us, Isaiah prophesied his birth and purpose behind it, in verse 2 of Isaiah 53, he said he shall grow up like a tender plant and as a root in a dry ground. Anyone who has knowledge of farming knows that, that is one of the most difficult thing for plant to do. Imagine a pathway where people walked always, the ground there would have been so dry and hard, to go there and plant your beans or maize, will be too difficult for such a plant to grow, if at all it tried to come out you can be sure it will not survive eventually.
Yet, that is the best example that can be used describe the birth of Jesus Christ, he was conceived miraculously without the assistant of any man to impregnate his mother, when he was to be born, there was no space for him in the hospital, though he was the creator and owner of the world in general, so he was born in a manger in an open space in a harsh weather, he was raised as a son of a carpenter. Despite all these hardship around his birth, yet he became the savior of the human kind, the scripture says there is no salvation in any other, the only one who can offer you salvation, healing, deliverances, is the one whose birth was that terrible. His birth was so low, yet when he ended his adventure on the earth so high, that there is no name beside his own. "For God has highly exalted him that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow". Phil.2:9. Ephesians 4:8-10, said he who ascended so high but first of all he descended so low.
I want you to learn this great lesson from the birth of Jesus Christ, that no matter how hard or bad you start in life, you can end it great, do not allow your beginning to hinder you let it fire you, it is not a sin nor your fault to start small but you must be sure you should not end it small. Though, your beginning was small but your later end should greatly increase. The Lord bless you as you go this week in Jesus Name.
Prayer Points: Pray that God will help you and give you grace to be so pay attention and be more focused on your purpose and destiny in life, and not on your problems in life.
