Topic : The reason for the season
Text : Daniel 9 : 6
Introduction
It is time again to celebrate another day commemorating the birth of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, tagged Christmas, though not every Christian denomination believe in the celebration, but to say the truth, whether all Christians denominations agreed to it or not,it really worths celebrating. No wonder it has become the most celebrated festival in the whole world.
In the course of celebrating this festival are always put in place by various organisations, churches, families not excluding varoou individual.
It is unfortunate that many of the organisations such as radio stations are using the season for their own personal gain, thus relegating the real reason for the celebration. Though it is not bad for to make profit from ones business, but the main reason of the celebration must not be defeated because of mundane gain.
For a quick reminder, after man lost that golden opportunity of having an intimate and uninterrupted relationship with God in the garden of Eden, God has planneed out a a way to bring back such lost relationship between HIM and man. This HE did by sending HIS only begotten son and offered Him as a sacrificial lamb in order to reconcil man back to HIMSELF.
I think that the birth of this only begotten son of God is worths celebrating even when the actual date is not known.
What is the season?
It is a season of love and sacrificial giving as seen in what the almighty God did to mankind. The love here is not in the context of the world's definition of love, but according to the definition given to it as stated in 1 Cor 13.
Reason for the season
As started in the introductory part of this study, the reason for the season is basic to reconcil man back to God, to give life to the lifeless, and to bring light to the dark of the world. John 1 : 4 & 5
It is disheartening these days that many have been using the season for their own selfish interest.
I could remember when I was much younger, during my secondary school days, one of my older neighbours did send me to his girlfriend then in preparation for the cross over night to the Christmas day. This neighbour of mine then could send me like more than five times to his girlfriend all in a bid to make sure she didn't disappoint him to the much awaited time. What a way to celebrate this unique day!....
It is unfortunate that instead of reflecting reason behind the celebration, it has turned to a day when many ladies will get unwanted pregnancies, thus relegating the reason for the season. This and many more atrocities are what some use thus period to do. May God have mercy on us, amen.
Brethren, though this season calls for huge celebration for what God has done and still doing in our lives, but at the same time calls for sober reflection. It is a time one should sincerely ask him/her self question like "are mine really and truly connected to God considering my ways of life"?
Brethren as we are celebrating this Christmas, let's do so with the assurance of our sure relationship with God. Let brotherly and sisterly love continues towards all people especially to those in the household of faith. Having opportunity to met those in dare needs, don't let us hesitate in making such happy, who knows, you might be using that mean in winning souls to the Kingdom of God.
Remember as the day passes by, the world is gradually coming to an end, we must prepare for eternity any time any day and not be carried away in the euphoria of the celebration.
A Kingdom where Jesus Christ reigns as King forever is our heritage.
I pray that the grace to make it into the Kingdom of God at the end of everything here on earth shall be released unto us so that our celebrations will not be in vain in Jesus mighty name, amen.
Merry Christmas and Happy new year in advance
Shalom.
