God’s Rescue Plan

we need a savior

“She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus,[a] because he will save his people from their sins” (Matthew 1:21).

What is Christ’s greatest accomplishment? It was not His miracles or His insightful teaching or His example of love. The greatest achievement of the God of Christmas is salvation. Sin is a powerful force in our lives and holds us in captivity. The Bible describes our spiritual struggles and failures in various ways. For example, we are trapped as it were in a sea of mud. The more we struggle to get out, the deeper we sink. We are in a dark pit whose walls are so high that we can’t possibly climb out. We are so terribly ill there is no cure. We are in a prison with no hope of being released. We are lost and don’t know where to go. This is where the mission of Christmas brilliantly shines.
Jesus is a great example, but His example is too high for any of us to keep, left to ourselves. He is a great teacher, but truth by itself can’t save us. If you are drowning, you don’t need someone to shout instructions from the shore. You don’t need a lecture on swimming. You need someone to come into the water and save you. God’s Son, Jesus, comes to us in our captivity, in our terrible and hopeless dilemma, and rescues us. His death on the cross demonstrates His great love for us in saving us from our sins and paying the price for our deliverance and forgiveness. Jesus is God’s deliverer—this is God’s rescue strategy—He sends Jesus to Earth to save us and to bring us to Heaven. This is the God of all grace, reaching down, down, down to you in the mission of Christmas.

Mary Did You Know? – Kenny Rogers & Wynonna Judd

Gift It’s my first time to listen to this song and I can’t help to share it on my blog. I’m a country music avid fan and Kenny Rogers is one of the world’s best country singers. I really like how he and Wynonna Judd put spirit in every lyrics of the song. It is so believable!
The lyrics of  Mary, Did You Know? tells the story of Jesus, His birth, His Ministry, and His Diety. He is the great “I Am.” 
Jesus said:
  • I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever;”(John 6:51)
  •  I AM from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world.(John 8:23)
  •  “I AM the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.”(John 8:12)
  • “Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM.”(John 8:58)
  • I AM the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.”(John 10:9)
  • I AM the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep.(John 10:11)
  • ‘I am the Son of God’ John 10:36
  • I AM the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.(John 11:25)
  • I AM the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.John 14:6
  • : “I AM the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser.(John 15:1)

Mary, Did You Know? Lyrics
Artist: Kenny Rogers

Mary, did you know
that your baby boy will one day walk on water?

Mary, did you know
that your baby boy will save our sons and daughters?

Did you know,
that your baby boy has come to make you new?
This child that you’ve delivered,
will soon deliver you.

Mary, did you know
that your baby boy will give sight to a blind man?

Mary, did you know
your baby boy will calm a storm with his hand?

Did you know,
that your baby boy has walked where angels trod?
When you kiss your little baby,
you’ve kissed the face of God.

The blind will see
The deaf will hear
The dead will live again.
The lame will leap
The dumb will speak
The praises of The Lamb.

Mary, did you know
that your baby boy is Lord of all creation?

Mary, did you know
that your baby boy will one day rule the nations?

Did you know,
that your baby boy is heaven’s perfect lamb?
This sleeping child you’re holding, is the great I AM.

Celine Dion Live : O Holy Night (A Christmas Song)

O Holy NightO yes, it’s that time of year again. Christmas is fast approaching. I will be featuring Christmas songs and carols here on Behind Crossroads within the next few weeks. I will pick Christmas songs that really popular and those that reflect the true meaning of Christmas.

For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.(Isaiah 9:6-7NKJV)

Celine Dion sings “O Holy Night” Live. Really great performance and honestly, I want to listen to it again and again. She’s an accomplished and very popular singer. Her songs include pop ballads “My Heart Will Go On,” her Grammy-winning theme to the movie Titanic. The youngest in her musical family from rural Quebec, Canada. If you cannot see the video, click here.

Celine Dion O Holy Night Lyrics:
O Holy night, the stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear Savior’s birth
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Til He appeared and the soul felt it’s worth
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn

Fall on your knees O hear the angel voices
O night divine!
O night when Christ was born
O night divine!
O night, O night divine!

And in His Name, all oppression shall cease
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we
Let all within us praise his holy name
Christ is the Lord!
Their name forever praise we

Noel, Noel
O night, O night Divine
Noel, Noel
O night, O night Divine
Noel, Noel
O night, O holy Night

Our God is Greater, Our God is Healer!

Listening to this song Our God by Chris Tomlin while doing this blog entry created me an atmosphere of peace, stirred faith, and inspired spirit. In life, we are easily hooked up with our daily routines and oftentimes, our quiet time with the Lord is becoming less and less. We don’t spend much time praying. We don’t spend time singing a song of praise or worship. We don’t spend time listening to what God has to say by reading His Word or listening to His still small voice. Oh, how easy easy it is to forget or  to procrastinate! But thanks be to God, His mercies never end. They are new every morning.

 

Chris Tomlin put yet another piece of music that really stirred my Spirit. A huge statement and declaration about our Heavenly Father. As I try to follow and sing every lyrics, the more I feel and believe about the message of this song. You might one to try and experience it for yourself. It’s really true.
“If God is for us, who can be against us?”  God is for us not against us. God is on our side. God is not our enemy. No power on earth or heaven can separate us from God’s love. Not our sin, not any authority, not any spiritual force. God’s love is unshakable and can always be relied upon. (cf Romans 8:38-39).
Today, we declare:

“Our God is greater, our God is stronger,
God you are higher than any other.
Our God is Healer, Awesome in Power, Our God! Our God!
Our God is greater, our God is stronger,

God you are higher than any other.
Our God is Healer, Awesome in Power, Our God! Our God!”
