And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour? Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. – Matthew 26:40-42

You know when I hear Jesus say, “Do this in remembrance of me” it’s about more than communion. It’s a call to remember Him in these times we live in where there is so much hustle and bustle. I know it’s Christmas, you’ve prepared some food, purchased some presents, and perhaps you are looking forward to receiving some presents and fellowshipping with family, friends, and loved ones. I want to challenge you today to WAKE UP to slip away and find some time to be with Jesus. I know you’ve got tons of stuff to do, but in the midst of it all, Jesus is saying to you, “Be With Me on My Birthday.” I know you want to, but are you willing to push past all that’s going on and answer the call to remember Him this day.

If so, here are some scriptures to mediate on. Don’t ask God for anything, don’t talk about your problems, what went right/wrong on this day, just BE with Him via His word.

Here are the scriptures:

Isaiah 9:6-7
Luke 1:26-35

Resting gloriously in Him,

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this. – Isaiah 9:6-7

Are you getting excited about Christmas? Do you remember when you were little and used to stay up until after midnight just to unwrap one present (or all of them depending on your parents’ consent)? We never forget the excitement of the traditions established in our family. Well, I still have that excitement at 40 something. Yes, I do, but it’s a more mature Christ-like version. Let me share my newfound tradition with you. I still stay up late. Truth be told, I can’t wait until midnight, but here’s the thing. I stay up so I can be the first one to enter my prayer closet to say, “Happy Birthday Yahushua!” What I love about this God inspired tradition is that He always awaits me with the best spiritual gifts I could ever imagine. He lavishes me with wisdom, revelation, love, and a fresh blast of Holy Spirit power. What old tradition do you need to infuse His glory into that it might become a newfound Spirit breathed mature Christ-like tradition?

Resting gloriously in Him,
