Quite the Chistmas present!

"For the LORD your God has arrived to live among you.

He is a mighty saviour.

He will rejoice over you with great gladness.

With his love, he will calm all your fears.

He will exult over you by singing a happy song."

Zeph 3



He will exult over you by singing a happy song!

Over me?

What have I done to deserve that?

Absolutely nothing!

Even so

The God of the universe

Exults over me by singing a happy song!


Have a blessed Christmas.

Fearful?

"For the LORD your God has arrived to live among you.

He is a mighty saviour.

He will rejoice over you with great gladness.

With his love, he will calm all your fears.

He will exult over you by singing a happy song."

Zeph 3


Fear is a scary thing (you don't say?)

Fear can eat at me

Fear can paralyse me

Fear can engulf me

Fear can cripple me


"With his love, he will calm all your fears"

Not just some of my fears

All of them

"...perfect love expels all fear" 1 John 4v18

Not some fear

All fear

Jesus = Perfect Love

Fearful! I need to go to Jesus!

Me?

"He will rejoice over you with great gladness."

The Lord rejoices over me!

With great gladness!

No matter what my self image is!

No matter what other people think!

I praise You!

Messed up and no place to go

"For the LORD your God has arrived to live among you.

He is a mighty saviour.

He will rejoice over you with great gladness.

With his love, he will calm all your fears.

He will exult over you by singing a happy song."

Zeph 3

"He is a mighty Saviour"

I need to get my life cleaned up a bit before I can go to Jesus

He wouldn't want to have anything to do with me at the moment, would He?

When I'm like this?

When I have these feelings about so and so?

When I have these feelings about myself?

No one else has the thoughts I have?

Especially no christian?

They only think good thoughts

They only think good things about people

They don't do what I do

Don't fool yourself

We're all as messed up as each other

That's why Jesus came

He's not just a Saviour

He's a mighty Saviour

Come to think

All the people He had anything to do with when He was down here were messed up

Maybe knowing I'm messed up is why Jesus wants to hangout with me?

No one else would want to if they knew what I was like

Jesus does!

God glorifying

"God

is

most

glorified

in

you

when

you

are

most

satisfied

in

Him"

Without one there can't be the other

"For the LORD your God has arrived to live among you." Zeph 3v17

If Jesus hadn't arrived to live among us

He couldn't have died for me

So now he wouldn't be living in me

This is God the creator of the universe we are talking about

"I myself no longer live but Christ lives in me" Gal 2v20

Let this sink in

Feeling down?

"For the LORD your God has arrived to live among you.

He is a mighty saviour.

He will rejoice over you with great gladness.

With his love, he will calm all your fears.

He will exult over you by singing a happy song."

Zeph 3

How precious are your thoughts about me, O God!

They are innumerable!

Psalm 139

Wow!!
